Nizhniy Novgorod’s main air gateway, Strigino International Airport (GOJ), serves as the region’s primary international and domestic hub, handling a mix of full-service and low-cost carriers. Flights can be relatively affordable compared with Moscow routes, though prices vary by season and carrier. The airport lies about 20–25 km southwest of the city center; travel time by road is typically 30–50 minutes depending on traffic. Options include regular Aeroexpress-style bus and shuttle services (roughly 40–60 RUB fare), taxis or ride-hail (fares depend on distance and surge), and private transfers. Pros: straightforward layout and direct links to the city; cons: peak-hour road congestion and more limited late-night public transit.
Penza Airport (Zemtsovo) functions primarily as a regional/domestic gateway rather than a major international hub, serving local and regional flights with occasional charter services. Regional carriers and smaller Russian airlines typically operate here, so fares can be more affordable than larger city airports, though options are limited. The airport lies roughly 10–20 km north of Penza city center; taxi rides usually take 20–40 minutes depending on traffic, with fares typically in a modest range, while local minibuses (marshrutkas) and occasional shuttle services can be cheaper but slower. Pros: compact terminal, short walking distances and quick processing on light-traffic days. Cons: limited flight frequency, fewer on-site amenities and international connections compared with larger airports.
