Dushanbe International Airport (DYU) functions as Tajikistan’s primary international gateway and a regional hub for full-service and low-cost carriers, with national airline Somon Air and Tajik Air among the frequent operators. Fares can be modest on regional routes but tend to rise for long-haul connections. The airport sits about 13–20 km east of central Dushanbe; taxis typically take 20–40 minutes depending on traffic and can cost a range roughly equivalent to a few dollars, while shared minibuses and hotel shuttles offer cheaper alternatives with longer journey times. Facilities are basic but improving, so travelers usually find straightforward check-in and limited dining options; overall it’s convenient for arrivals and departures but can be less comfortable than larger international hubs.

Tehran is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Imam Khomeini International (IKIA) is the primary international gateway and usually handles long-haul and many full-service carriers; flights here can be perceived as mid- to higher-priced compared with the city's secondary airport. IKIA is about 45–60 km from central Tehran, with shuttle buses and private transfers typically taking 45–75 minutes depending on traffic and costing in a moderate range; taxis and app-based rides are also common. Pros: modern facilities and international connections; cons: longer transfer times to the city and occasional congestion. Mehrabad Airport primarily functions as Tehran’s domestic and some regional hub, hosting budget and legacy domestic airlines and typically offering lower fares. Mehrabad sits much closer to downtown — roughly 8–12 km — so airport transfers are usually short (20–40 minutes) by taxi or metro and can be cheaper than trips to IKIA. Pros: convenience for domestic travelers and quicker city access; cons: older terminals and limited international services.

In different months, ticket prices from Dushanbe to Tehran vary: minimum — $91 (November 2025), maximum — $599 (September 2026). Typically, the flight costs $271–$721.
