The Russian Airline Aeroflot makes 2 flights a week to Ulaanbaatar City. If you are coming from Europe, our recommended routes are, first to fly to Berlin, then to transfer there to a MIAT flight or fly to Moscow, then take a MIAT or Aeroflot flights to Ulaanbaatar City.
U.S. travelers might find less expensive to buy tickets from a Mongolian air-ticket agency in the U.S. If you are coming from the U.S., one option is to take a United Airlines flight to Beijing and then transfer to MIAT or Air China flight to Ulaanbaatar. Another option is to fly to Seoul, Korea and then take Korean Airlines flight to Mongolia.
