Kazan International Airport (KZN) serves as the main gateway to Tatarstan and typically functions as a regional and international hub, handling a mix of legacy carriers and low-cost airlines offering domestic and seasonal European connections. It lies about 25–30 km (roughly 30–40 minutes) southeast of Kazan city center. Transport options commonly include suburban buses and shuttle vans (marshrutka), airport taxis and occasional fixed-route minibuses; expect travel times around 30–50 minutes depending on traffic, with fares typically ranging from modest public-bus prices to higher taxi rates. The airport is often praised for compactness and straightforward navigation, though peak times can feel crowded and transfer options are more limited than at larger international hubs.

Samarkand International Airport (SKD) is the main gateway to the city and typically functions as an international/regional hub rather than a low-cost base, serving national carrier Uzbekistan Airways alongside a handful of regional and seasonal carriers. It sits about 6–8 km southeast of the historic center, with taxi rides usually taking 15–25 minutes and airport shuttles or hotel transfers often available for comparable times; expect fares to be modest by regional standards, often in a fixed or metered range depending on service. Ground connections are basic but straightforward — taxis and prearranged transfers are fastest, while some hotels offer shuttle pickup. Pros: close proximity to major sights and relatively simple arrival procedures; cons: limited late-night public transport and fewer airline choices compared with larger Central Asian hubs.
