Vladivostok International Airport (Knevichi, IATA: VVO) serves as the region’s main international gateway and a hub for far-eastern Russia, handling a mix of full-service carriers and regional/budget airlines. Located about 45–50 km northeast of the city center, transfer times to downtown typically range from 40–70 minutes by airport bus or shuttle and 40–60 minutes by taxi depending on traffic; fares for public buses are usually very low, while taxi rides can be moderate to higher-priced compared with local standards. The airport offers routine domestic connections and seasonal international flights, making it convenient for onward travel but involving longer surface transfers than inner-city airports. Pros: modern facilities and direct international links; cons: relatively long transfer distance and occasional winter weather delays.

Shanghai is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Pudong International (PVG) operates as the city’s primary international hub, hosting full-service carriers and many long-haul routes; it’s typically seen as the more premium, global gateway. Hongqiao (SHA) is closer to the center and usually handles domestic and regional flights, with a higher share of budget and business-traveller short-haul services. Pudong lies about 45–50 km east of downtown Shanghai and can be reached by Maglev plus metro or expressway buses in roughly 40–60 minutes; fares for the Maglev plus metro leg commonly fall in a moderate range. Hongqiao sits some 10–15 km west of the center and is reachable by metro, taxi or airport shuttle in about 20–40 minutes, often at lower cost. Pros: Pudong offers more international connectivity and amenities for long-haul travel; Hongqiao’s proximity makes it convenient for quick domestic hops. Cons: Pudong can require longer transfers and extra travel time, while Hongqiao may be busier during peak commuter hours and has fewer intercontinental options.
