Cheap Flights from Kigali to Moscow — $432

Kigali International Airport (KGL) serves as Rwanda’s main international gateway and is typically positioned as a small but modern hub handling a mix of full-service carriers and regional budget airlines. Flights here are often competitively priced compared with larger East African hubs, though fares can vary by carrier and season. The airport is about 10–12 km northeast of Kigali’s city center; taxis and ride-hailing services usually take 20–30 minutes depending on traffic and can cost roughly modest local fares, while hotel shuttles and private transfers are common for business travelers. Pros include a compact layout and relatively quick processing times; cons can be limited late-night public transport options and fewer lounge or shopping choices than major international hubs.

Fly nonstop from Kigali to Moscow for the quickest, most convenient way to bridge East Africa and Russia — fewer hassles, no layovers, and more time to enjoy your trip. While connecting flights can sometimes cost less, choosing a direct route saves hours and offers a more comfortable, stress-free journey worth the upgrade.

Moscow is served by several airports that together cover premium international traffic and budget or regional services. Sheremetyevo (SVO) acts as the main international hub and typically hosts full-service carriers and many long-haul flights; it lies about 29–35 km northwest of the city centre and can be reached by Aeroexpress train in roughly 35–45 minutes or by taxi in 40–70 minutes depending on traffic, with fares ranging from moderate train fees to higher taxi costs. Domodedovo (DME) is another major international gateway, commonly used by both full-service and low-cost operators; it sits about 42–45 km southeast and connects by Aeroexpress in about 45 minutes or by road in 50–80 minutes. Vnukovo (VKO) often serves a mix of scheduled and charter flights, generally positioned 28–30 km southwest and linked by Aeroexpress plus buses or taxis, offering a balance of convenience and sometimes lower fares. Zhukovsky (ZIA) handled growing international and leisure traffic and can be farther from central Moscow, so journeys may be longer and more variable. Pros: good rail links to central Moscow provide reliable journey times and easy connections. Cons: road travel is subject to significant traffic, terminals can be busy during peak periods, and transfers between airports may require substantial time, so allow generous connection buffers.

In different months, ticket prices from Kigali to Moscow vary: minimum — $466 (February 2026), maximum — $713 (May 2026). Typically, the flight costs $599–$1,331.
