💡 Connection Tips

Most commercial flights now operate from new Chinggis Khaan International Airport (52km from city). Buyant-Ukhaa serves as backup facility with limited commercial service. If flying into ULN specifically, expect basic facilities compared to main airport. Allow extra time for ground transport due to distances. New primary airport has modern immigration/customs, efficient processing. Cold weather conditions require appropriate preparation for outdoor transfers between aircraft and terminals.
