Pulkovo Airport (LED) is Saint Petersburg’s main international gateway and typically serves as the city’s premium hub for long-haul and European flights, with Aeroflot, Rossiya and several foreign carriers operating regularly. It sits about 23 km south of the city center; road transfers by taxi or ride-hail typically take 30–50 minutes depending on traffic, while public buses and the airport shuttle can take 40–60 minutes with low fares. Pulkovo usually offers a wider choice of lounges and services, though peak times can mean longer queues and fares may be higher than for regional alternatives. Overall it balances convenience and facilities for most travelers. Peter and Paul Fortress / Neva River (city center heliport) — Note: Saint Petersburg lacks a major secondary commercial airport, so most flights funnel through Pulkovo. For very specific or private transfers, there can be helicopter and private aviation options closer to the center that are typically pricier but much faster, often reaching central locations in under 20 minutes. These services can be useful for time-sensitive trips or business travelers but are less common and usually more costly than standard ground transport. They can offer high comfort and direct access but limited schedules and availability compared with regular airlines.

London is served by several airports with distinct roles. Heathrow (LHR) is the city’s primary international hub, typically favoured by full-service carriers and premium passengers; it sits about 24 km west of central London and is usually reachable by the Heathrow Express in ~15–20 minutes (higher fares), the Elizabeth Line in ~30–35 minutes (moderate fares), or by tube and road in 40–60+ minutes depending on traffic. Gatwick (LGW) functions as a major international and leisure gateway with a strong mix of scheduled and low-cost airlines, about 45 km south; it’s often accessed via the Gatwick Express in ~30 minutes or trains taking ~30–50 minutes, with variable ticket prices. Stansted (STN) and Luton (LTN) commonly serve budget and leisure carriers and sit further out (roughly 50–65 km north/northwest), usually reached by express or regional trains plus shuttle buses in ~30–60 minutes; fares are generally lower but transfers add time and cost. London City (LCY) is a compact, business-focused airport in the Docklands just 11 km east of the centre; it can be the quickest option for business travellers with DLR connections in ~20–30 minutes though it has limited flight choices and higher per-ticket costs. Pros across the network include broad route coverage and frequent services; cons can be congestion, varied transfer times, and higher fares or extra transfer costs at outlying airports.

The minimum one-way ticket price from Saint Petersburg to London is $160 (March 2026), while the maximum is $293 (September 2026). On average, a ticket costs $199–$205.
