Orenburg Airport (REN) serves as the region’s main civil gateway and typically handles a mix of domestic and limited international flights rather than acting as a global hub. You’ll usually find Russian carriers operating scheduled connections to Moscow and regional destinations, with occasional charter services. The airport lies about 16–20 km from Orenburg city center; taxi rides generally take 20–30 minutes and can be moderately priced, while local bus or shuttle services may take 30–50 minutes for a lower fare. Pros include compact terminals that make transfers straightforward and short queues outside peak hours; cons are a more limited range of airlines and amenities compared with major metropolitan hubs.

Ulyanovsk houses two main airports serving different needs. Ulyanovsk-Vostochny (ULY) functions as a regional/international hub with a mix of scheduled domestic flights and occasional international services, often accommodating larger aircraft; it can be pricier than smaller fields but offers more connections. The airport sits roughly 20–25 km east of Ulyanovsk city centre, with taxis taking about 25–40 minutes and shared shuttles or local buses offering cheaper 40–60 minute options; fares are typically modest compared with major hubs. Pros: more flight choices and full passenger facilities; cons: can be a bit farther out and services may be more limited off-peak. Ulyanovsk-Baratayevka (ULV) is a smaller airport typically geared toward domestic or budget-focused traffic and general aviation rather than extensive international routes. Located approximately 10–15 km from downtown, travel times are often 15–30 minutes by taxi and 30–50 minutes by public bus, with fares generally low; private transfers are also available. Pros: closer to the city and convenient for quick regional hops; cons: fewer scheduled connections and more limited passenger amenities compared with larger airports.
