It typically handles full-service carriers and a few low-cost operators, with fares that can be competitive on domestic routes but often higher for long-haul or seasonal flights. The airport is about 50–55 km northwest of Irkutsk city center; road transfers usually take 40–70 minutes depending on traffic. Options include taxis and private transfers (widely available), occasional shared shuttles, and limited public bus links with modest fares. Pros: relatively modern facilities and straightforward transfers; cons: significant distance from downtown and variable winter delays.

Fares can be perceived as moderate for domestic routes and higher for last-minute holiday flights. Pros: modern facilities and direct beach-bound transfers; cons: travel time to central beaches and crowds at peak times.
