Nizhniy Novgorod’s main gateway, Strigino International Airport (GOJ), functions as the city’s primary international and regional hub, while a few smaller airfields serve general aviation. The airport typically hosts a mix of national carriers and low-cost airlines on domestic and occasional international routes, with fares that can be competitive compared with bigger Russian hubs. Strigino sits about 25–35 km southwest of the city center; transfers by Aeroexpress-like train or regular buses and fixed-route minibuses usually take 30–60 minutes depending on traffic, and taxi rides commonly run faster but cost more. Pros: straightforward layout and regular public links; cons: distance from central Nizhniy Novgorod and variability in service frequency for some international connections.

While some connecting options can be cheaper, a nonstop trip saves precious hours and tends to be more comfortable for business and leisure travelers alike.

Koltsovo Airport (SVX) is Yekaterinburg’s main international gateway and typically functions as a regional hub for full-service carriers and some low-cost operators. It usually handles most long-haul and connecting flights and can be priced higher than smaller regional fields, though deals are common on competitive routes. The airport sits about 16–20 km southeast of the city center; taxis generally take 20–40 minutes depending on traffic and can cost roughly RUB 400–1000, while public buses and express shuttles take about 40–60 minutes for lower fares. Pros: full services, lounges, and frequent connections; cons: occasional peak-time congestion and a longer transfer than inner-city airfields. Yekaterinburg Central (old airfields/heliports) and nearby general aviation strips are typically used for private flights, charters, and light aircraft rather than regular scheduled services. These facilities usually serve business and regional charter operators, offering quicker turnaround and closer proximity to some central districts—often within 5–15 km—but they can be more expensive per passenger and have limited amenities. Ground access is usually by private car, taxi, or arranged transfer taking 10–30 minutes; public transport is seldom available. Pros: convenience and speed for private travelers; cons: higher per-passenger cost and minimal services for standard passengers.
