Uytash Airport (MCX), serving Makhachkala, is a regional gateway that typically handles domestic and some international services, often favored by full-service Russian carriers alongside low-cost operators on domestic routes. Located roughly 20–30 km north of the city centre, transfer times can be around 30–60 minutes depending on traffic; taxis and shared minibuses (marshrutka) are the usual choices, with fares generally low to moderate. Ground connections are functional but not extensive, so travelers can expect basic facilities and relatively quick processing outside peak periods. Pros: convenient for regional travel and usually affordable transfers. Cons: limited lounge/retail options and fewer direct long-haul links compared with larger international hubs.
Tehran is served primarily by two airports with different roles. Tehran Imam Khomeini International (IKA) is the city’s main international gateway and typically handles long-haul and many full-service carriers; it’s located about 45–60 km southwest of central Tehran, with travel times usually ranging from 45 minutes to 90 minutes by car depending on traffic and route. Options include taxis, airport shuttles and private transfers; fares can vary widely but shuttle buses are generally the most economical. Mehrabad Airport (THR), closer to the center at roughly 8–15 km, usually serves domestic and regional flights and budget-conscious travelers; travel time is commonly 20–45 minutes by taxi or bus. Pros: IKA offers comprehensive international facilities and more long-haul options, while Mehrabad is convenient for quick domestic connections. Cons: both can be affected by heavy traffic and varying service levels, and travelers should allow extra time for transfers and security procedures.
