Athens Eleftherios Venizelos (ATH) is Greece’s primary international gateway and a major southeastern European hub, handling a mix of full-service carriers and many low-cost airlines that often undercut legacy fares. Located about 33 km east of central Athens, transfer to Syntagma or the port of Piraeus is typically 30–45 minutes by Metro or 20–40 minutes by suburban rail plus bus, while taxis take roughly 35–55 minutes depending on traffic (metered fares and airport supplements usually apply). Airport buses run overnight at lower fixed fares. Pros: modern terminals, comprehensive connections and amenities; cons: can be busy in summer and road transfers may be slow during peak hours.

Fly nonstop from Athens to Moscow for the quickest, most hassle-free way to get between Greece and Russia — ideal if you value time and comfort. While you may occasionally find cheaper tickets with connections, a direct flight cuts travel time and removes extra layovers so you arrive refreshed and ready to go.

Moscow is served by several airports with distinct roles. Sheremetyevo (SVO) typically functions as the city’s primary international hub, favored by full-service carriers and often positioned as mid-to-premium in price; it sits about 30–35 km northwest of the center and can be reached by Aeroexpress train in roughly 35–45 minutes or by taxi in 40–90 minutes depending on traffic (fares vary widely). Domodedovo (DME) is another major international gateway, commonly used by a mix of legacy and some low-cost carriers and perceived as mid-range in cost; it lies about 42 km southeast with Aeroexpress transfers of 45–55 minutes and taxi rides longer in peak hours. Vnukovo (VKO) tends to handle more domestic and budget-conscious international services, roughly 28–35 km southwest; Aeroexpress plus bus or taxi take about 30–60 minutes. Zhukovsky (ZIA) is a smaller, newer option with limited routes and can be cheaper but less frequent, around 40–45 km southeast. Public transport options include Aeroexpress trains, bus lines and metro links (with transfers), while taxis and ride-hailing are faster but can be costly in heavy traffic. Pros: multiple airport choices can match cost and carrier preferences; cons: significant distances, variable traffic, and transfers that may add time and complexity.
