Samarkand International Airport (SMR) serves as the primary gateway to Uzbekistan’s historic city and typically functions as a modest international and domestic hub rather than a large global transfer center. You’ll usually find flights from Uzbekistan Airways, local carriers and some seasonal or regional airlines connecting Central Asia, Russia and nearby countries; fares can be perceived as competitive for regional travel. The airport is about 10–15 km southeast of the city center, with taxi rides generally taking 15–25 minutes and costing a modest local fare; some hotels arrange transfers and limited shuttle or shared-ride options may be available. Pros include convenient proximity to major sights and generally straightforward customs and baggage procedures; cons can be limited late-night services, fewer lounge amenities, and a smaller range of dining and shopping compared with larger international hubs.

Seoul is served primarily by two airports with distinct roles. Incheon International (ICN) is the city’s long-haul gateway and a major international hub, typically handling most intercontinental carriers and full-service airlines; Gimpo (GMP) focuses more on domestic and short-haul regional flights, including some low-cost and legacy carriers. Incheon lies about 48 km west of central Seoul, with the Airport Railroad Express (AREX) taking roughly 45–60 minutes to Seoul Station (fares usually range from moderate to higher for express services), plus limousine buses and taxis that can take 60–90 minutes depending on traffic. Gimpo is much closer, about 15 km from downtown, with metro and AREX links taking 20–30 minutes and low-cost shuttle buses or short taxi rides available. Pros: Incheon offers extensive facilities, international connections, and reliable ground links; Gimpo is convenient for quick domestic transfers and shorter commutes. Cons: Incheon’s distance can add transit time and cost, while Gimpo may be busier and offer fewer long-haul options.
