Murmansk Airport (MMK) serves as the region’s primary air gateway and typically handles most international connections and domestic flights for northwest Russia rather than being a major global hub. Carriers are usually regional and national airlines, with occasional international charters; fares can be moderate to higher compared with budget-focused airports in larger cities. The airport sits about 25 km south of Murmansk city center, with road transfers by taxi or private car taking roughly 30–45 minutes depending on traffic; public bus and shuttle options are available and can take 40–60 minutes, often at modest fares. Pros: compact terminal, straightforward transfers and short walk times. Cons: limited airline choice and fewer low-cost options than larger hubs.
Shanghai is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Pudong International (PVG) is the city’s primary international hub, handling most long-haul and premium carriers and typically commanding higher fares; it sits about 30–40 km east of the city center, with Maglev and metro links taking roughly 30–45 minutes (fares vary from modest to moderate). Hongqiao (SHA) functions more as a domestic and regional gateway favored by budget and business travelers for its proximity—around 13 km west of downtown—reachable by metro or taxi in 20–40 minutes for relatively low cost. Pros: Pudong offers extensive international connectivity and full-service amenities; Hongqiao is convenient for quick city access. Cons: PVG can mean longer transfers and higher fares, while SHA has fewer long-haul options.
