Koltsovo Airport (SVX) is Yekaterinburg’s main international gateway and typically functions as a regional hub for Russian carriers and some international airlines, with a mix of full-service and low-cost operators. It sits roughly 16–20 km east of the city center, with road transfers usually taking 25–40 minutes depending on traffic; taxis and ride-hailing are common and can be moderately priced, while public buses and airport shuttles offer cheaper options in the lower fare range. The airport generally provides a range of passenger services and several lounges, making it convenient for connections, though peak hours can bring queues and longer transfer times. For budget travelers, limited low-cost competition can mean fares are mid-range compared with larger European hubs.
Irkutsk International (IKT) serves as the region’s main air gateway and typically functions as a full-service hub for both domestic flights across Russia and a handful of international connections. Expect a mix of legacy carriers and some low-cost operators; fares can be mid-range compared with Moscow but may rise during peak travel to Lake Baikal. The airport lies about 7–10 km north of Irkutsk city center — taxi rides usually take 15–25 minutes with fares commonly in the lower local currency equivalent of a few dollars, while marshrutka/minibus and occasional city bus options can be cheaper but slower (20–40 minutes).
