Nizhniy Novgorod is served primarily by Strigino International Airport (GOJ), which functions as the region’s main international and domestic hub rather than a low-cost base. It typically handles flights from Aeroflot, S7, Ural Airlines and some seasonal carriers, so fares can range from budget-friendly to mid-priced depending on route and season. The airport lies about 25–30 km southwest of the city center; road transfer by taxi or ride-hail usually takes around 30–50 minutes (fares commonly fall in a modest local range), while public buses and shuttle services can take 40–60 minutes at lower cost. Pros: direct connections and basic passenger services; cons: transfer time to downtown can be significant and peak-hour traffic may add delays.
Irkutsk International Airport (IKT) serves as the main air gateway for Irkutsk and eastern Siberia, typically functioning as a regional hub for full-service carriers and some domestic budget airlines. Flights here are often positioned as mid-range in price compared with Moscow connections, with seasonal variations for lake Baikal tourism. The airport lies about 12 km (roughly 20–40 minutes) southeast of the city center; taxi rides usually take around 20–30 minutes and can be moderately priced, while city buses and fixed-route minibuses offer cheaper options in 40–60 minutes depending on traffic. Pros: straightforward layout and direct links to regional flights; cons: limited late-night services and fewer international connections than larger Russian hubs.
