Heydar Aliyev International Airport (GYD) is Azerbaijan’s main international gateway and typically serves as the country’s premium hub, handling a mix of full-service carriers and regional airlines—Azerbaijan Airlines is a frequent operator while several European and Middle Eastern carriers also call it. The airport sits about 20–25 km southeast of downtown Baku; road transfer by taxi or shared ride can take roughly 25–40 minutes depending on traffic, with fares usually lower than many Western capitals, and a public bus or BakuMetro+bus combo can be a cheaper option. Travelers can expect modern terminals and straightforward services, though peak-hours may bring lines; its position outside the city provides quieter facilities but means a short drive is typically required to reach central attractions.
