Saint Petersburg is served primarily by Pulkovo Airport (LED), the city’s main international gateway and a hub for full-service carriers as well as some low-cost operators. Pulkovo sits about 23 km south of the city center; taxi rides typically take 30–50 minutes depending on traffic, while public buses or minibuses can take 45–70 minutes with fares usually very low. Aeroexpress-style rail links are not currently available, so travelers often combine bus plus metro or taxi for speed. Pros: relatively modern terminals and a wide range of international routes. Cons: surface transport can be slow at peak times and transfer options may be less straightforward than in some Western hubs.
Almaty International Airport (ALA) serves as Kazakhstan’s primary international gateway and the country’s busiest airport, typically handling a mix of full-service and regional carriers such as Air Astana and various international airlines.

The airport usually offers a full range of facilities including lounges and duty-free shopping, making it convenient for international connections; however, peak-hour traffic and occasional congestion can make transfers less predictable than at smaller domestic fields.
