Yerevan's only central railway station, a beautiful Soviet building topped by a spire, is located on Sassountsi Tavit Square (the metro of the same name), recognizable by the equestrian statue of the mythical hero Tavit of Sassoun, by the here very well known Soviet sculptor Yervant Kotchar. It runs idle with a few regional trains to Sevan and an international train to Tbilisi and Batoum, daily in summer. A Russian company is bringing the network up to standard and since 2018 an electric train has been connecting Yerevan to Gyumri in just 2 hours.

The bus station of the North, or Kanaker, on the road to Sevan, is more readily used, as its name suggests, to get to the north of the country. Short trips, like Sevan (1h30), or a little longer: Dilijan or Alaverdi (3h30), by bus or minibus, marshroutka. The bus station has been redone, and even if we lose some folklore, we gain in comfort. A buffet is therefore planned for waiting passengers, with local specialities. As in the bus station of Kilikia, collective taxis offer their services.

Yerevan was proud of its fake Soviet airport at Roissy, it is even prouder of the one, which will be refurbished in 2011 by Eurekian, an Argentinean Armenian who rules over airports in Latin America. It is ultramodern, highly functional, international in scope and will carry 1.8 million passengers in 2019, linking Armenia with more and more countries. A shuttle system connects it to the centre of Yerevan, as well as the Aerotaxi company, or buses 108 and 20.

Tashkent International Airport is the largest in the country. It is located 12 km south of the city center. There are the offices of Uzbekistan Airways, a currency exchange office and some duty free stores. Tashkent is connected to Paris by one direct flight per week: on Tuesdays in the direction Paris-Tashkent and on Fridays in the direction Tashkent-Paris. The rest of the time, you will have to go through Turkey (the fastest) or through Moscow (count 9 hours).

Uzbekistan Airways operates several flights a week to Ferghana (on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays), but a good plan is to look out for flights on the Moscow-Tashkent-Ferghana route, which are often half-empty during the second part of the flight. Seats are sold out and Uzbeks sometimes pay the same price as for a taxi. With this in mind, arm yourself with courage and come to Tashkent airport at dawn. Schedules change regularly, but this flight mostly takes off very early from Tashkent.
