Rio de Janeiro is served primarily by two airports with distinct roles. Galeão–Antonio Carlos Jobim International Airport (GIG) acts as the city’s main international gateway and a full-service hub for larger carriers; it generally handles long-haul and international flights and can be pricier on average than budget-focused options. GIG sits about 20–25 km north of downtown—expect 30–60 minutes by taxi or ride-hail depending on traffic, with fares typically higher during peak times; the BRT/transit + local buses offer cheaper links in roughly 45–75 minutes. Santos Dumont Airport (SDU) is a compact city-center airport mainly serving domestic and regional routes on full-service and some low-cost airlines; it’s just 2–4 km from the central business district, often reachable in 10–20 minutes by taxi or short metro/bus connections for modest fares. Pros: GIG provides extensive international connectivity and modern facilities; SDU is convenient for quick access to downtown. Cons: GIG can involve longer transfers and heavier traffic, while SDU has limited long-haul service and can be busy during peak domestic schedules.
Saint Petersburg is served primarily by Pulkovo Airport (LED), the city’s international hub that typically handles most long-haul and legacy carrier traffic alongside some low-cost services. Located about 23 km south of the historic centre, it’s usually reachable by airport bus or suburban train in roughly 30–50 minutes; taxis and app-based rides often take 30–45 minutes depending on traffic, with fares that can vary widely. Pulkovo is generally regarded as a mid-to-upper-tier facility with a range of lounges, shops and car-rental options, though peak times can mean queues at security. For budget-conscious travelers, a few smaller regional and charter flights can operate into nearby airfields; these may be closer or cheaper but typically offer fewer services and less frequent ground transport links.
