It typically handles a mix of Russian carriers and some international and charter flights, with budget options available on domestic legs. The airport lies about 50–55 km northwest of Irkutsk city center; road transfer by taxi or private car can take roughly 40–60 minutes depending on traffic and usually costs the equivalent of a modest local fare, while limited bus and shuttle services can be cheaper but slower.

CEK lies about 20 km northeast of the city center, with taxis taking roughly 25–40 minutes and shared shuttles or bus routes around 40–60 minutes; expect taxi fares to be moderate and public bus fares to be very low.
