Nizhniy Novgorod’s airport (Strigino, IATA: GOJ) serves as the region’s primary international and domestic gateway, handling a mix of full-service carriers and low-cost or regional operators. It’s located roughly 25 km southwest of the city center, with travel times typically around 30–50 minutes by car depending on traffic. Public transport includes a regular bus/minibus service and occasional city shuttles; fares can be modest, while taxis or ride-hailing usually cost more but offer faster, door-to-door journeys. The airport is generally compact and straightforward to navigate, which can speed connections, though facilities and retail options may be more limited compared with larger hubs. Good for regional access; check schedules for direct international links.

Saint Petersburg is served mainly by Pulkovo Airport (LED), the city’s primary international gateway and usual choice for most long-haul and full-service carriers, and by smaller regional airports that handle some budget and domestic connections. Pulkovo sits about 23 km south of the historic centre; typical transfers include taxi or rideshare in roughly 30–50 minutes depending on traffic, public buses and minibuses in 40–60 minutes for modest fares, and an airport shuttle plus metro combinations that can be slightly faster during peak hours. Pulkovo generally offers a wide range of services and carriers, so it can be more convenient for international transfers but may be pricier than occasional low-cost-sector options. Pros: good international connectivity, modern facilities; cons: distance from the centre and variable road congestion.
