Maputo International Airport (MPM) is Mozambique’s main gateway and typically functions as the country’s primary international and regional hub, handling national carrier LAM Mozambique alongside several regional operators and occasional international services. It sits a short distance from downtown — roughly 5 km away, usually a 10–20 minute drive depending on traffic. Ground options include metered taxis and private transfers (often US$10–25), local minibuses/chapas and shared shuttles for a few dollars, while app-based rides may be available at times. The airport is relatively convenient and recently modernized, offering good regional connectivity; downsides can be limited long‑haul options and variable taxi pricing and queues.

Pulkovo Airport (LED) is Saint Petersburg’s principal international gateway and usually functions as the city’s main commercial hub, handling a mix of major Russian carriers (Aeroflot, Rossiya) alongside low-cost operators and seasonal international services. Located about 23 km south of the historic center, transfers typically take 30–60 minutes by car depending on traffic. Public options include airport buses and minibuses connecting to Moskovskaya metro (fares commonly in the lower tens to low hundreds of rubles), while taxis and ride-hailing usually cost more but are faster. Pros: modern terminals and a broad route network; cons: can be busy at peak times and public transport options may be slower late at night. A handful of smaller airfields around Saint Petersburg (for example, regional and general-aviation strips) can be used for private flights, charters and occasional regional services. These facilities are generally closer to the city—often within roughly 10–20 km—and can offer quicker check-in and less crowded conditions, but they seldom have regular scheduled routes or extensive passenger amenities. Ground access is typically by taxi or pre-booked shuttle, with travel times around 20–40 minutes and fares that can be higher per kilometre than city buses. Pros: convenience for private or charter travelers; cons: limited destinations, fewer public transport links and reduced on-site services.
