Tehran is served mainly by two airports with distinct roles. Imam Khomeini International Airport (IKA) is the primary international gateway and typically handles long-haul and many full-service carriers; it’s positioned about 45–60 km southwest of central Tehran, with transit times often 40–70 minutes by express bus or taxi depending on traffic and roughly moderate fares compared with local standards. Mehrabad Airport (THR) functions largely as a domestic and regional hub for budget and national airlines, lying much closer—around 8–12 km west of downtown—reaching the city in 20–40 minutes by metro, taxi, or bus for low to moderate cost. Pros: IKA offers modern facilities and international connections, while THR is convenient for domestic travelers. Cons: both can be affected by city congestion and security procedures, and transfer between the two airports can take significant time.
Samarkand International Airport (SKD) serves as Uzbekistan’s gateway to the historic city and usually functions as a modest international and domestic hub. It typically handles national carriers like Uzbekistan Airways alongside regional airlines, so fares can be mid-range compared with larger Central Asian hubs. The airport lies about 6–8 km southeast of the city center; taxi rides normally take 15–25 minutes and can cost roughly $3–8, while shared minibuses or local buses are cheaper but slower (20–40 minutes). Pros: convenient proximity, straightforward layout and direct connections to Tashkent and nearby capitals. Cons: limited late-night services and fewer long-haul options compared with bigger regional airports.
