Moscow is served by several major airports with distinct roles. Sheremetyevo (SVO) usually functions as the primary international hub and often handles many full-service carriers and long-haul flights, while Domodedovo (DME) is also a major international airport with a mix of legacy and some low-cost operators. Vnukovo (VKO) tends to be slightly more budget-friendly and can cater to both leisure and business traffic, and Zhukovsky (ZIA) is typically used for charter and secondary routes. Transfer times to the city center vary: Aeroexpress trains from SVO and DME take about 35–45 minutes with fares typically in a mid-range bracket, whereas Vnukovo’s Aeroexpress links can be around 35–45 minutes as well. Road transfers by taxi or rideshare can range from 40 minutes to over an hour depending on traffic and cost expectations vary accordingly. Pros include extensive flight options and frequent ground connections; cons can be long security queues, variable transfer times in heavy traffic, and that services and pricing may differ substantially between airports.

Port Elizabeth Airport (PLZ), also known as Chief Dawid Stuurman International, functions as a regional gateway rather than a major international hub, typically handling domestic flights and occasional regional connections. Airlines operating here are usually national and low-cost carriers serving routes to Johannesburg, Cape Town and other South African cities, making fares often perceived as mid-range to budget-friendly depending on season. The airport sits roughly 10–15 km from Port Elizabeth city centre; taxi rides commonly take 20–30 minutes with fares generally in the lower-range local brackets, while shuttle services and car rentals offer alternatives for similar travel times. Pros: compact terminal, short walk times and straightforward transfers; cons: limited long-haul options and fewer dining or lounge facilities compared with larger hubs.
