Hamid Karzai International Airport (KBL) serves as Afghanistan’s main international gateway and is typically positioned as the country’s primary hub for diplomatic, humanitarian and limited commercial traffic. Flights usually include regional carriers and a sparse mix of international operators when available; fares can be relatively high compared with nearby markets due to operational constraints. The airport sits about 10–15 km south of central Kabul; transfer times range from roughly 20–45 minutes depending on traffic and security checks. Ground options are mainly taxis and private car services with fares that can vary widely; secure shuttle arrangements are sometimes offered for institutional travelers. Pros: central hub status and direct access to key services; cons: variable service levels, heightened security procedures and limited public transport links.
Tehran is served mainly by two airports with distinct roles. Imam Khomeini International Airport (IKA) is the primary international gateway and typically handles most long-haul and many full-service carriers; it can be perceived as mid-range to premium in facilities. IKA lies about 45–60 km southwest of central Tehran, with travel times of roughly 45–90 minutes by car depending on traffic; airport shuttles, taxis and private transfers are common, and fares can vary widely. Mehrabad Airport (THR) mainly functions as a domestic and regional hub used mostly by local and low-cost carriers; it sits much closer, about 8–12 km west of the city center, reachable in 20–40 minutes by taxi or metro (short fares). Pros: IKA offers international connectivity and modern terminals, while Mehrabad is convenient for domestic connections. Cons: IKA’s greater distance means longer transfer times and variable road costs, and Mehrabad can be crowded with fewer international services.
