Saint Petersburg is served mainly by Pulkovo Airport (LED), the city’s international gateway and full-service hub for carriers like Aeroflot and Rossiya, with several international and regional airlines operating year-round; it typically offers higher fares than smaller regional fields but more scheduled routes. Pulkovo sits about 23 km south of the historic centre and can be reached by express bus or municipal marshrutka in roughly 30–50 minutes depending on traffic, or by taxi in 30–60 minutes; typical public-transport fares are low while taxi rides can be notably more expensive. Pros: wide route network, full passenger services and frequent transfers; cons: can be busy at peak times and subject to road congestion. There are also a few smaller airfields used for charters, general aviation and occasional low-cost services; these tend to be positioned farther from the city or serve niche markets and private flights. Such fields usually host smaller operators and charter aircraft, and can be a cheaper option for private or ad-hoc services but lack the international connections and passenger facilities of Pulkovo. Ground access varies by airfield — some require longer transfers by car or shuttle — offering a trade-off between price and convenience.

Fly nonstop from Saint Petersburg to Osaka for the fastest, most convenient way to reach Japan’s Kansai region — fewer hassles, no layovers, and more time to enjoy the city. While connecting options can sometimes be cheaper, a direct flight saves valuable time and offers a more comfortable travel experience, making it a smart choice for busy itineraries.

Osaka is served mainly by two airports with different roles. Kansai International (KIX) is the region’s international hub and typically handles long-haul and full-service carriers alongside some low-cost airlines; it sits on an artificial island about 50–60 minutes from central Osaka by train and can be reached by the Airport Express (around ¥1,200–¥1,600) or limousine bus (roughly 60–90 minutes, ¥1,100–¥1,600). It’s usually perceived as the more full-service, comfortable option but can involve longer transfers. Osaka Itami (ITM/Osaka International) functions largely as a domestic/business airport used mainly by domestic and regional carriers; it’s closer to the city (15–30 minutes by bus or taxi), with quicker access and lower local transit cost, though flights are generally domestic only. Pros: KIX for international connectivity and amenities; ITM for fast city access and frequent domestic services. Cons: KIX’s distance and transfer times vs ITM’s limited international options.

The cost of a one-way flight from Saint Petersburg to Osaka ranges from $292 (February 2026) to $613 (March 2026). On average, the ticket price is about $439–$458.
