Shymkent International Airport (CIT) serves as the main gateway to Shymkent and southern Kazakhstan, operating as a regional international hub rather than a large global transfer point. It typically handles a mix of national carriers and budget airlines on domestic routes and seasonal international services, so fares can be competitive compared with larger Kazakh airports. The terminal lies around 9–12 km southeast of the city centre; road transfers usually take about 15–25 minutes by taxi or private car, and fares are commonly modest. Shared shuttles or local buses can take slightly longer but are cheaper. Pros: compact terminal, straightforward procedures and short transfer distances. Cons: fewer lounges and limited late-night services compared with bigger hubs; international connections may require a change at larger airports.

Doha is served primarily by Hamad International Airport (DOH), a large international hub that typically handles long-haul and premium carriers alongside regional airlines; a smaller airport, the former Doha International, is rarely used for commercial service. DOH is positioned about 15–20 km southeast of the city center, with metered taxis taking roughly 20–30 minutes depending on traffic and usually costing in the mid-range for the region; airport shuttle buses and app-based ride services can be slightly cheaper, while private transfers and hotel shuttles offer added convenience. The airport is generally modern and passenger-friendly with extensive lounges and shopping, though peak-time immigration can be slow; its hub status often means good onward connections but sometimes higher fares compared with secondary regional airports.
