Chisinau International Airport (KIV) is Moldova’s main international gateway and usually serves both full-service carriers and low-cost airlines on routes across Europe and the CIS. Located about 13 km (roughly 20–35 minutes by road) southeast of the city center, it can be reached by taxi, shuttle buses and occasional organized transfers; taxis typically take around 20–30 minutes and can be moderately priced while public buses are cheaper but slower. The airport typically offers basic passenger amenities and straightforward layouts, making transfers fairly convenient, though peak times can feel crowded and services more limited than larger regional hubs. Good for most business and leisure travelers seeking direct connections to Moldova.

Nizhniy Novgorod’s airport (Strigino, GOJ) functions as a regional international gateway rather than a major global hub, handling a mix of domestic flights and seasonal or business routes to Europe, Central Asia and the Caucasus. You’ll typically find full-service carriers alongside low-cost and regional operators, with fares often perceived as moderate compared with Moscow links. The airport sits about 25–30 km southwest of the city center; transfer options include Aeroexpress-style rail or commuter trains (roughly 40–60 minutes), regular buses and taxis (30–50 minutes depending on traffic). Bus fares are usually low, while taxi rides can be mid-priced. Pros: compact terminals and straightforward navigation; cons: fewer direct long-haul connections and occasional longer transfers to central Nizhniy Novgorod during peak traffic.
