Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW) is the region’s primary international hub, typically handling a mix of legacy carriers — notably Delta — alongside several global and domestic airlines; it can be pricier than smaller regional fields but often offers more nonstop options. DTW sits about 20 miles southwest of downtown Detroit, with travel times of roughly 25–40 minutes by car depending on traffic; ride-hailing and taxis commonly range from moderate to higher fares, while the airport shuttle and private transfers are alternatives. The airport usually provides extensive amenities and smoother connections, though its size can mean longer walks and occasional delays at peak times. For lower-cost domestic travel, Detroit also has smaller regional airports that can be more budget-oriented but with fewer direct routes.
Moscow is served by several airports that play different roles for travelers. Sheremetyevo (SVO) typically functions as the international hub, handling most long-haul and full-service carriers; it sits about 29 km northwest of central Moscow and can be reached by Aeroexpress train in roughly 35–45 minutes or by car in 40–70 minutes depending on traffic, with taxi or ride-hail fares usually higher than public transport. Domodedovo (DME) is another major international airport to the south, often used by a mix of full-service and low-cost airlines; the Aeroexpress takes about 45 minutes and road transfers can take 50–90 minutes. Vnukovo (VKO) tends to host both legacy and budget carriers and lies around 28 km southwest of the city, reachable by Aeroexpress or road in roughly 35–60 minutes. Zhukovsky (ZIA) is generally smaller and can be cheaper or more seasonal, located about 45 km southeast and requiring longer transfers. Pros for Sheremetyevo and Domodedovo include frequent international connections and express train links; cons can be longer queues at peak times and variable road congestion. Budget-conscious travelers may choose Vnukovo or Zhukovsky for certain low-cost routes but should factor in transfer time and transport options.
