Unable to find information about the schedule of direct flights from
Kurumoch International Airport (KUF) is Samara’s main international gateway and typically handles both scheduled domestic flights and a range of international connections, often served by legacy and Russian low-cost carriers. It sits about 35–45 km northwest of Samara city centre, with travel times usually around 40–60 minutes by car depending on traffic. Public transport options include express trains and regional buses; expect fares to be modest for buses and somewhat higher for rail or taxis. Pros: more route choices and basic passenger amenities; cons: longer transfer distance to the city and occasional peak-time queues. Kurumoch can be a practical choice for international and interregional travel, while nearby smaller airfields are used mainly for general aviation.
Johannesburg is served mainly by O.R. Tambo International (JNB), the country’s primary international hub that typically handles long-haul and full-service carriers, and by Lanseria (HLA), a smaller airport that can be more budget- and regional-carrier friendly. O.R. Tambo sits about 25–30 km east of the city center; Gautrain express trains take roughly 20–25 minutes to Sandton from the airport and taxis or ride-shares are common, with fares varying by route and provider. Lanseria is further northwest and can be quicker for some suburbs, though transfers often require shuttle services or car hire. Pros: broad route network and frequent services at JNB; cons: peak-time crowds and longer transfer times between terminals, while Lanseria may have fewer amenities but lower fees for some low-cost carriers.
