Irkutsk International Airport (IKT) serves as the main air gateway for eastern Siberia and typically functions as a regional hub for domestic and select international flights. Carriers operating here are usually a mix of Russian full-service and low-cost airlines, with some seasonal charters to China and Mongolia. The airport lies about 6–10 km northwest of central Irkutsk, reachable by taxi in roughly 15–25 minutes depending on traffic; fares are commonly modest by local standards. Public buses and shared shuttles can take 30–45 minutes for a lower cost. Pros: compact layout and straightforward transfers; cons: facilities can be basic and international connections may be limited outside peak seasons.
Nanjing is served mainly by Nanjing Lukou International Airport (NKG), the city’s principal international and regional hub that handles most long-haul and full-service carrier traffic alongside some low-cost operators. Located about 35–40 km south of downtown, travel to the city center is typically 35–60 minutes by airport express train or 40–70 minutes by road depending on traffic; expect metro/express fares and shuttle buses to be modest, while taxis can be higher. The airport generally offers a broad choice of lounges, dining and transfer options for comfort, but the distance from central Nanjing can make ground transfers less convenient than at closer urban fields. For quick domestic hops, some travelers may also use nearby secondary airports in the province.
