Tehran is served mainly by two airports with distinct roles. Imam Khomeini International Airport (IKA) acts as the primary international gateway and hub for full-service carriers, typically handling long-haul and regional flights; it’s located about 45–50 km southwest of the city center, with taxi or private transfer journeys commonly taking 45–75 minutes depending on traffic and costing roughly the equivalent of a moderate airport transfer. Mehrabad Airport (THR) sits much closer, about 10–15 km west of central Tehran, and is usually focused on domestic and some regional services operated by budget and national airlines; travel times by taxi or metro are often 25–45 minutes and tend to be cheaper. Pros: IKA offers more international connectivity and modern facilities, while THR can be quicker for domestic travel; cons: IKA’s distance can add time and cost, and both airports can be affected by heavy city traffic or busy peak periods.
