Unable to find information about the schedule of direct flights from
Lyon is served primarily by Lyon-Saint Exupéry (LYS), the region’s international hub handling most long-haul and scheduled services, and the smaller Lyon–Bron which is focused on general aviation. Saint Exupéry typically hosts flag carriers and a mix of low-cost and regional airlines, and is usually perceived as mid-to-upper range for fares compared with Paris airports. It sits about 20–25 km east of the city center; travel options include the Rhônexpress tram linking the airport to Lyon Part-Dieu in around 25–35 minutes (fare typically in the mid-range for a city airport), regional trains and taxis taking 30–45 minutes depending on traffic. Pros: good international connections and reliable rail link; cons: slightly longer transfer into the city and costs that can be higher than small regional fields. Lyon–Bron is closer to central Lyon and can be convenient for private flights or certain business services, but offers very limited scheduled commercial service.
Nizhny Novgorod’s airport (Strigino, GOJ) serves as the region’s primary international and domestic gateway, typically handling a mix of full-service carriers and low-cost/regional airlines. Flights can be competitively priced compared with Moscow connections, though fares vary by season. The airport lies about 25–30 km southwest of the city center; travel times are generally 30–50 minutes by taxi depending on traffic, with fares usually affordable, or about 40–60 minutes by public bus or airport shuttle at lower cost. Strengths include a compact terminal and direct regional links, while limitations can be fewer long-haul options and occasional congestion during peak periods. Overall, Strigino is a convenient hub for regional travel and transfers.
