Auckland Airport (AKL) is New Zealand’s main international gateway and typically functions as a full-service hub for long-haul and regional flights, with Air New Zealand and several international carriers common. Flights can be pricier than to smaller regional fields but there are often competitive options across premium and economy classes. The airport sits about 21 km south of the CBD; transfer choices include the frequent SkyBus shuttle (roughly 45–60 minutes, fares usually in the low tens), taxis or rideshares (30–40 minutes depending on traffic, higher cost), and rental cars for flexible onward travel. Pros: comprehensive facilities, many lounges and onward connections. Cons: peak-time traffic to town and occasional queues for security and immigration.

Moscow is served by several airports with different roles: Sheremetyevo (SVO) is the main international hub that typically handles most long-haul and SkyTeam flights, Domodedovo (DME) often serves a mix of full-service and mid‑range carriers with many international and regional connections, Vnukovo (VKO) can be a gateway for both international and low‑cost services, and Zhukovsky (ZIA) is usually used for charter and some budget routes. Transfer times to the city center vary — Aeroexpress trains from SVO and DME take around 35–45 minutes, while Vnukovo’s Aeroexpress is about 35–40 minutes; fares for these trains are typically in the mid-range for Moscow transit. Surface options include taxis and airport buses: taxis can take 30–90+ minutes depending on traffic and usually cost more than public transport, whereas buses and marshrutkas are cheaper but often slower. Pros: Sheremetyevo and Domodedovo offer extensive international connections and more passenger services; Vnukovo can be more convenient for western approaches and fewer crowds at times; Zhukovsky may offer lower fares on seasonal flights. Cons: road congestion can make surface transfers unpredictable, budget carriers may use peripheral airports with fewer amenities, and transfer between different Moscow airports can be time-consuming.

The minimum one-way ticket price from Auckland to Moscow is $463 (December 2025), while the maximum is $902 (August 2026). On average, a ticket costs $646–$650.
