Beijing is served primarily by two major airports with distinct roles. Beijing Capital International (PEK) has typically been the international hub for full-service carriers and Star Alliance partners, positioned northeast of the city about 25–30 km from Tiananmen; the Airport Express train or expressways can take roughly 30–60 minutes depending on time of day, with fares usually modest for public transit and higher for taxis/ride-hailing. Beijing Daxing International (PKX) opened as a modern, long-haul and growing hub often used by both legacy and low-cost long-distance operators; it lies about 45–50 km south of central Beijing and can be reached in 40–70 minutes by intercity rail, shuttle buses, or car. Pros: both airports offer extensive international connections and good ground links; cons: travel times can be long in peak traffic and transfer between the two airports is not quick.
Nizhniy Novgorod’s main air gateway is Strigino International Airport (GOJ), serving as the region’s primary international and domestic hub. It typically handles a mix of full-service carriers and lower-cost Russian airlines, with seasonal charters to popular destinations; fares can be competitive for domestic trips but may rise for international routes. The airport sits about 25 km southwest of the city center — road transfers usually take 30–50 minutes by taxi or private car, and cost roughly ₽800–₽2,000 depending on operator and traffic. Public options include shuttle buses and a fixed-route bus with travel times around 50–70 minutes for a modest fare. Pros: modern facilities and straightforward connections to regional and Moscow flights. Cons: somewhat distant from downtown and variable public-transport frequency outside peak hours.
The minimum one-way ticket price from Beijing to Nizhniy Novgorod is $401 (July 2026), while the maximum is $420 (August 2026). On average, a ticket costs $410–$420.
