Irkutsk International Airport (IKT) functions as the main air gateway for southeast Siberia, typically serving a mix of domestic flights and seasonal international connections rather than being a major long-haul hub. You’ll often find Russian carriers and some regional airlines operating most services, with low-cost options less common than at larger European airports. The terminal lies about 45–50 km from Irkutsk city center; road transfers by taxi or shuttle usually take around 40–60 minutes depending on traffic, while public buses and fixed-route minibuses can be cheaper but slower. Fares are generally modest by local standards. Pros: straightforward layout and direct regional links; cons: limited amenities and fewer international frequencies compared with bigger hubs.
Ulaanbaatar is served mainly by Chinggis Khaan International Airport (ULN), the country’s principal international gateway and a regional hub for full-service and low-cost carriers alike. The airport typically handles most international connections and domestic flights, with Mongolian Airlines and Genghis Khan Airline among common operators; fares can lean toward mid-range for international routes and budget-friendly on domestic sectors. Located about 50 km south of the city center, transfer options include airport buses (roughly 50–70 minutes, low fares), shuttle taxis and private cars (40–60 minutes, higher cost), and regular taxi services whose prices vary. Pros: modern facilities for international travel and direct domestic links. Cons: significant transfer distance from central Ulaanbaatar and potential winter weather delays.
