Tehran is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Imam Khomeini International Airport (IKA) is the city’s primary international gateway and usually handles long-haul and most scheduled international flights; it is often used by full-service carriers and some regional airlines. Located about 45–65 km southwest of central Tehran, IKA can take 45–90 minutes by car depending on traffic; airport shuttles, taxis and private transfers are common with fares that can vary from modest to moderate. Mehrabad Airport (THR) sits much closer to the city and typically operates domestic and some regional services, favoured by budget-conscious travellers and domestic carriers; it’s roughly 8–15 km from downtown and reachable in 20–40 minutes by taxi or metro with low to reasonable fares. Pros: IKA offers broader international connections and modern facilities, while Mehrabad is more convenient for quick domestic hops. Cons: both can be affected by heavy traffic and queues, and travel times may be unpredictable at peak hours.

Dushanbe’s main gateway is Dushanbe International Airport (DYU), the country’s primary international hub handling most scheduled flights to and from Central Asia, Russia and the Middle East. It typically serves a mix of national carrier and regional airlines, with some charter and low-cost options on seasonal routes. The airport lies roughly 10–15 km south of downtown Dushanbe; taxis and shared minibuses are common and usually take 20–35 minutes depending on traffic, while fares can be modest by regional standards. Pros: compact layout and straightforward connections for international transfers. Cons: limited shopping and lounge options and occasional seasonal congestion that may affect comfort.

In different months, ticket prices from Tehran to Dushanbe vary: minimum — $154 (October 2026), maximum — $501 (August 2026). Typically, the flight costs $349–$480.
