Shymkent International Airport (SCO) serves as the main air gateway for southwest Kazakhstan and typically functions as a regional hub rather than a large international gateway. It usually handles a mix of domestic flights and a number of international services operated by full-service and low-cost carriers, so fares can be moderate compared with larger national hubs. The airport lies roughly 17–20 km southeast of Shymkent’s center; taxi rides commonly take 20–35 minutes while buses and marshrutkas can take 35–50 minutes, with fares generally low for public transport and taxis costing more depending on time of day. Pros include a compact terminal that can make transfers straightforward; cons are limited late-night services and fewer lounge or shopping options than major airports.

Tashkent International Airport (TAS) is Uzbekistan’s main international gateway and typically serves as the country’s premium hub for both full-service carriers and regional airlines; low-cost services can be found on some routes. The airport lies around 12–15 km northeast of Tashkent’s city center, with travel times of roughly 20–40 minutes depending on traffic. Ground options usually include taxis (metered or fixed-rate, fares vary by provider), shared minibus marshrutkas that are inexpensive, and occasional airport shuttle buses; private transfers are also common. Pros: relatively modern terminals with cafes and lounges and straightforward customs; cons: peak-hour traffic to the city and occasional queues during busy periods.
