Baku is served by Azerbaijan Airlines from London with connections from Spain. Turkish Airlines via Istanbul is convenient. Azerbaijan borders Georgia (Tbilisi 6 hours by bus), Iran, and Russia. A Caucasus circuit combining Georgia, Armenia, and Azerbaijan is popular (check Armenia entry separately).
