Erbil International Airport (EBL) is the main international gateway for Iraqi Kurdistan and typically functions as a regional hub for both full-service and low-cost carriers serving Middle Eastern and some European destinations. Flights are often priced competitively compared with larger Gulf hubs, though fares can vary by season and demand. The airport lies about 12–15 km east of Erbil city center; taxis and private transfers usually take 20–30 minutes, while shuttle buses and ride-hailing services can be slightly longer depending on traffic. Expect modest terminal amenities with a mix of business-class lounges and basic facilities—comfortable enough for short stays but less extensive than major global hubs. Pros: straightforward layout and short transfer times to the city; cons: fewer nonstop long-haul options and potentially limited evening services.

Moscow is served by several major airports that together handle international, regional and low-cost traffic. Sheremetyevo (SVO) typically functions as the city’s main international hub and is commonly used by full-service carriers; it sits about 30–35 km northwest of the city center and can be reached by Aeroexpress rail in roughly 35–45 minutes or by taxi in 45–70 minutes depending on traffic (rail fares are usually moderate, taxis can be pricier). Vnukovo (VKO) often hosts both legacy airlines and some budget services, located about 28–30 km southwest of central Moscow; Aeroexpress and buses connect it in roughly 35–50 minutes, and taxis offer door-to-door trips that can be faster but cost more. Domodedovo (DME) is typically positioned as another major international gateway further southeast, around 42–45 km from downtown; Aeroexpress trains take about 45–55 minutes, while road transfers are subject to congestion and can be longer. Zhukovsky (ZIA) is usually used for charter and low-cost flights and lies roughly 40–45 km southeast; ground transport is more limited, often involving long bus rides or taxis. Pros across the network include relatively frequent rail links from central stations and broad airline choice; cons can be variable journey times by road, multiple airports to choose between, and occasional higher fares for faster taxi transfers.

The minimum one-way ticket price from Moscow to Erbil is $148 (December 2025), while the maximum is $449 (January 2026). On average, a ticket costs $203–$261.
