Irkutsk International Airport (IKT) serves as the main gateway to eastern Siberia and typically functions as a regional international hub rather than a large global transfer point. It commonly handles flights by Russian carriers and a mix of domestic and some seasonal international services, with fares often perceived as mid-range for the region. The airport sits about 52–55 km northwest of Irkutsk city center; road transfers usually take around 40–70 minutes depending on traffic. Transport options include regional buses and marshrutkas (shared minibuses), regular airport shuttles and taxis—expect bus fares to be modest while taxi rides vary by operator. Pros: straightforward layout and essential services for connecting to Baikal and the region. Cons: limited long-haul connectivity and fewer premium amenities compared with larger international hubs.

São Paulo/Guarulhos–Governador André Franco Montoro (GRU) is the city’s main international gateway and an established hub for full-service carriers, handling most long-haul and intercontinental flights as well as many domestic connections. It’s about 25–30 km northeast of downtown São Paulo, with travel options including the airport express train (around 40–60 minutes), intercity buses or shuttles (45–75 minutes) and taxis or app rides (30–60 minutes), fares varying by mode and time of day. GRU can be perceived as mid-to-premium on ticket pricing compared with low-cost alternatives, and it typically offers greater flight choice and amenities; downside can be longer transfer times and busy terminals during peak hours. Congonhas–São Paulo (CGH) is the city’s primary domestic and business-oriented airport, favored by legacy carriers for frequent short-haul connections to Brazil’s major cities. Located much closer to the city center (roughly 8 km south), it’s commonly the fastest option for business travelers, reachable by taxi or ride-hailing in about 15–30 minutes, and by bus or subway transfers in 30–50 minutes; fares are generally lower than long-distance options but depend on traffic. Congonhas often wins on convenience and quick turnarounds, while limitations include stricter noise and operational rules and fewer international services. Viracopos–Campinas (VCP), situated about 100 km northwest of São Paulo near Campinas, functions as a secondary international and cargo-focused airport that typically hosts some low-cost and charter operations. Ground travel to central São Paulo can take 70–110 minutes by bus or car depending on traffic, with intercity coach fares generally lower than private transfers. VCP may offer competitive fares on select routes and quieter terminals, but the distance from the city makes it less convenient for time-sensitive trips; travelers trade potential savings for longer surface transfers.

The minimum one-way ticket price from Irkutsk to Sao Paulo is $963 (December 2025), while the maximum is $972 (April 2026). On average, a ticket costs $968–$972.
