Unable to find information about the schedule of direct flights from
Nizhniy Novgorod’s air travel is served mainly by Strigino International Airport (GOJ), which functions as the region’s primary gateway with a mix of domestic and some international flights. The airport typically handles full-service carriers alongside a number of low-cost and regional operators, so fares can range from budget-friendly to mid‑range depending on season and carrier. Strigino lies about 25–30 km southwest of the city center; road transfers by taxi or ride-hail usually take 30–50 minutes, while public buses and shuttle vans can take 45–70 minutes with lower fares. Pros: a compact, easy-to-navigate terminal and direct links to key Russian cities. Cons: limited long-haul options and occasional congestion at peak times.
Kostroma Airport (IATA: KMW) functions mainly as a small regional gateway serving Kostroma Oblast rather than an international hub, so it typically handles domestic flights and occasional charter services. Regional carriers and smaller Russian airlines are the most common operators, with fares that can be comparatively modest but sometimes fluctuate due to limited competition. The airfield sits roughly 25–30 km from Kostroma city center; taxi rides are usually about 30–50 minutes and may cost a modest flat rate, while local buses or shuttles can be slower and less frequent but cheaper. Advantages include short queues and easy navigation; downsides are limited flight frequency, fewer amenities, and minimal onward-transport options late at night.
