Kazan is served primarily by Kazan International Airport (KZN), a regional hub that handles a mix of full-service carriers and low-cost airlines, so fares can range from budget-friendly to mid‑level depending on season. The airport sits about 25 km northeast of the city center; typical transfers include taxi or ride‑share (30–40 minutes, usually moderately priced), scheduled airport buses and minibus marshrutkas (40–60 minutes, low cost), and occasional private shuttles for events. For most travelers KZN offers modern facilities and straightforward connections, though peak periods can mean longer waits and fewer late-night options. Overall it’s convenient for city access but expect moderate transit times and variable prices.
Shanghai is served primarily by two major airports with distinct roles. Shanghai Pudong International (PVG) is the city’s main international hub, handling most long-haul and intercontinental flights and typically used by legacy carriers; it sits about 30–40 km east of the city center and can take 40–60 minutes by Maglev + metro or 45–75 minutes by taxi, with rail fares usually modest though taxis may be comparatively pricier. Shanghai Hongqiao (SHA) functions more as a domestic and regional gateway favored by budget and full-service carriers for short-haul routes; it’s much closer—roughly 10–15 km west of downtown—reaching central areas in 20–40 minutes by metro or 20–45 minutes by taxi, often at lower transfer cost. PVG can be more comfortable for international connections and has extensive lounges and services, while SHA is more convenient for quick domestic trips but can feel crowded during peak times.
