Cheap Flights from Beijing to Tehran — $569

Beijing Capital International (PEK) serves as the primary international gateway and a major hub for full-service carriers such as Air China and several global airlines; it typically handles most long-haul and premium services. Located about 25 km northeast of downtown, transfer options include the Airport Express train (around 20–30 minutes), taxis (30–60 minutes depending on traffic) and airport shuttle buses; fares can range from modest train tickets to taxi fares that vary with distance and time of day. The airport usually offers extensive lounges, shopping and connectivity, though sheer size can mean long walks and occasional delays at peak times. Beijing Daxing International (PKX) is a newer mega-hub designed to relieve capacity and support both international and domestic routes, attracting a mix of full-service and low-cost carriers. It sits roughly 46 km south of the city center; travel choices include dedicated high-speed rail and express coach links (typically 30–50 minutes into southern and central districts), taxis (40–70 minutes) and ride-hailing; fares generally reflect the longer distance. Daxing is often praised for modern facilities and efficient layouts, but the greater distance to central Beijing can be less convenient and sometimes adds time and cost for transfers.

Tehran is served mainly by two airports with distinct roles. Imam Khomeini International Airport (IKA) is the primary international gateway and typically handles long-haul and many international carriers, so fares can be mid-to-high depending on season; it lies about 50–60 km southwest of central Tehran. Travel options include express bus or airport shuttle (roughly 60–90 minutes depending on traffic, fares usually modest), taxis and private transfers (faster but pricier). Mehrabad Airport (THR) functions largely as the domestic and regional hub for domestic carriers and some regional flights, sitting much closer to the city (10–15 km). Ground transport to Mehrabad is typically quicker—metro connections, taxis, or short car rides (20–40 minutes); costs are usually lower than IKA transfers. Pros: IKA offers wide international connectivity and modern long-haul facilities; Mehrabad is convenient for domestic travel and saves time in transit. Cons: IKA’s distance can add travel time and expense, while Mehrabad can be busier and more limited for international routes.
