Chelyabinsk’s main air gateway, Chelyabinsk Airport (CEH, also called Balandino), typically serves as a regional and domestic hub with occasional international flights; it often handles carriers such as Aeroflot, S7 and Ural Airlines alongside smaller Russian operators. The airport sits roughly 18–20 km northeast of the city centre, with taxi rides taking around 25–40 minutes and minibuses or buses about 40–60 minutes; fares for public buses and marshrutkas are usually low, while taxis can be moderate depending on vehicle and traffic. Facilities are compact and functional, making transfers relatively straightforward, though service options and dining can be limited compared with larger international hubs. For travellers prioritising convenience and short ground time, CEH is generally a practical choice; those seeking more airline variety or lower fares may compare options via nearby larger airports.

Public transport options include the 100E airport express bus to the city center (around 30–40 minutes, ticketed service) and regional buses or taxis; fares can range from modest public-transport prices to mid-range taxi rates. Pros: relatively compact terminals and good low-cost connectivity. Cons: can be busy during peak seasons and some additional fees or queues may apply for transfers and security.
