Nizhnevartovsk Airport (NJC) functions primarily as a regional hub serving the Khanty-Mansiysk area and nearby oil-industry towns, with a mix of scheduled domestic flights and charter services rather than extensive international connections. Carriers are typically Russian regional airlines and occasional larger operators linking to Moscow and other Siberian cities; fares can be perceived as mid-range for domestic routes. The airport sits roughly 6–8 km from Nizhnevartovsk city center, with taxi rides taking about 10–20 minutes and local buses or marshrutkas usually under 30 minutes—expect modest fares. Pros: compact terminals and quick transfers; cons: limited amenities and fewer flight frequency options compared with major hubs.

Istanbul is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Istanbul Airport (IST) functions as the city’s primary international hub, handling long-haul and transfer traffic for major carriers and full-service airlines; it’s located roughly 35–50 km northwest of the historic center, with M11 metro, express buses and taxis typically taking 40–60 minutes depending on traffic and costing a moderate amount compared with local incomes. Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) on the Asian side is often positioned as the low-cost and regional alternative, favored by budget and leisure carriers; it lies about 35–45 km from central districts via highway or metro-bus connections, journeys usually taking 45–75 minutes with generally lower transfer fares. Pros: IST offers broad connectivity and modern facilities, while SAW can be cheaper and closer to eastern neighborhoods. Cons: both can be affected by heavy traffic for road transfers; SAW may have fewer long-haul options and IST’s size can mean longer walking and transfer times.

In different months, ticket prices from Nizhnevartovsk to Istanbul vary: minimum — $157 (December 2025), maximum — $832 (August 2026). Typically, the flight costs $317–$526.
