Irkutsk International Airport (IKT) serves as the main gateway to eastern Siberia and typically functions as a regional hub for domestic flights with some international connections. Carriers operating here are usually Russian flag and low-cost domestic airlines, with occasional seasonal charters; fares can be competitive for internal routes but may feel higher for distant or last-minute international legs. The airport sits about 52 km northwest of central Irkutsk, with road transfers by taxi or private car taking roughly 50–70 minutes depending on traffic; shared shuttles and occasional bus options can be cheaper but slower, generally in the 60–120 RUB to 500–1,500 RUB range depending on service. On the plus side, the facility is compact and generally easy to navigate for regional transfers; drawbacks can include limited late-night amenities and fewer nonstop international connections compared with larger hubs.

Kuala Lumpur is served primarily by Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL), a large international hub handling most long-haul and full-service carriers, and the closer Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport (SZB), which often handles turboprops, regional and some low-cost flights. KUL sits about 45–60 km from the city center, typically a 45–60 minute drive by taxi or express train (KLIA Ekspres runs ~28 minutes to KL Sentral) with fares ranging from economical rail tickets to higher taxi/ride-hailing fares; SZB is roughly 20–30 km away, a shorter 30–45 minute trip. Expect a mix of premium lounges and budget-friendly options; KUL can be more modern and comfortable for transfers, while SZB may be quicker for domestic hops but with fewer long-haul amenities.
