Irkutsk International Airport (Irkutsk Airport, IKT) serves as the main aviation gateway for eastern Siberia and typically functions as a regional hub with some international connections. It usually handles domestic carriers like Aeroflot and S7, alongside smaller Russian airlines and occasional charter flights, so fares can range from budget-friendly to mid-tier depending on season and routing. The airport lies about 45–50 km northwest of Irkutsk city centre; transfers by airport bus or shared shuttle generally take around 50–70 minutes and cost modestly, while a taxi ride can be 40–60 minutes depending on traffic and is usually more convenient but pricier. Pros: straightforward layout, regular domestic links; cons: distance from downtown and limited late-night services for international transfers.
Sapporo is served mainly by New Chitose Airport (CTS), the region’s international gateway and largest airport, plus smaller Okadama Airport (OKD) for domestic flights. New Chitose typically handles long-haul and low-cost carriers alongside full-service Japanese airlines, and fares can range from budget-friendly to premium depending on season and carrier. It sits about 40–50 minutes by train to central Sapporo; the JR rapid airport line usually takes around 38–45 minutes with fares in the moderate range, while airport buses are a direct option taking roughly 60–90 minutes depending on traffic. Pros: wide service options, many shops and lounges, reliable express train links. Cons: slightly longer transfer to downtown than some city airports and busy peak-season crowds. Okadama is closer (about 15–20 minutes by road) and mainly serves domestic turboprops and regional flights, offering quicker access but fewer amenities and limited airline choices.
