Chongqing is served primarily by Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport (CKG), a major inland gateway and international hub that handles both full-service carriers and many low-cost and regional airlines.

Options include the metro line (roughly 30–45 minutes, low fare), airport shuttle buses (45–60 minutes, modest fare), taxis or ride-hailing (30–60 minutes, fare varies with distance and traffic), and private transfers. Pros: extensive route network and modern facilities; cons: travel times can be long due to the city’s size and traffic, and terminals may be busy during peak travel periods.

The airport lies roughly 10–15 km north of central Irkutsk; taxis usually take around 20–30 minutes, while marshrutka minibus services and occasional airport shuttles can offer cheaper transfers in about 30–40 minutes. Pros include compact terminals and straightforward transfers for regional routes; cons can include fewer late-night options and variable service amenities compared with major international hubs.
