Chelyabinsk Airport (Chelyabinsk Airport, CEK) typically serves as the region’s main gateway, handling a mix of domestic and occasional international flights rather than operating as a major global hub. Regular carriers are usually Russian airlines and low-cost or regional operators, making fares often perceived as mid-range for domestic routes. The airport lies roughly 20–25 km north of Chelyabinsk city center; public buses and fixed-route shuttles usually take about 40–60 minutes depending on traffic, while taxis can cut that to roughly 25–35 minutes with fares commonly varying by operator and time of day. Advantages include straightforward domestic connections and compact terminal layouts; drawbacks can be limited international service and fewer amenities compared with larger hubs.

Saratov is served by two airports with distinct roles. Gagarin Airport (GSV), the newer international gateway located about 20–25 km southeast of the city center, usually handles the majority of scheduled flights including some international and major domestic routes served by carriers such as Aeroflot and S7; transfers to central Saratov typically take 30–50 minutes by car or taxi and can be around moderate local fares, while occasional shuttle buses or private transfers are sometimes available. Tsentralny Airport (RTW), closer to the city and previously the main domestic field, can be used for regional connections though larger jets tend to use Gagarin. Pros: Gagarin usually offers more services and newer facilities; cons: both airports can require time for transfers depending on traffic and limited frequent public-transport options at off-peak hours.
