Semey’s airport (SEM) serves as a small regional gateway rather than a major international hub, typically handling domestic flights and occasional connections to nearby countries. Carriers operating here are usually local or regional airlines, so fares can be relatively affordable compared with bigger Kazakh airports, though choices may be limited. The airport lies roughly 10–15 km from Semey city center; taxis take about 15–25 minutes and can cost in the low single-digit to low double-digit USD range, while local minibuses or shared taxis offer cheaper, slower options. Pros include short transfer times and straightforward facilities; cons are limited amenities, fewer flight frequencies, and minimal long-haul connections.
Urumqi Diwopu International Airport (URC) is the main international and domestic gateway for Xinjiang, typically serving larger carriers such as Air China, China Southern, China Eastern and regional airlines operating linkages across China and Central Asia. It can be perceived as mid-range in price compared with major coastal hubs, with more options for domestic flights than low-cost-only choices. The airport lies about 16–20 km northwest of downtown Urumqi; taxis generally take 25–40 minutes depending on traffic and cost roughly CNY 30–70, while the airport shuttle and public buses take 40–60 minutes for a lower fare. Pros: relatively modern facilities and direct international links; cons: distance from city center and occasional winter weather delays.
