Moscow is served by several airports with distinct roles. Sheremetyevo (SVO) functions as the city’s primary international hub and typically hosts full-service carriers including Aeroflot and many global airlines; it’s generally perceived as mid-to-upper range in price. It sits about 30 km northwest of central Moscow, with Aeroexpress trains taking around 35–45 minutes and costing roughly the equivalent of a moderate transit fare; taxis or ride-shares can take 40–70 minutes depending on traffic and may be pricier. Pros: extensive international connections and good ground links. Cons: can be busy and spread out, so transfers may take time. Domodedovo (DME) is commonly positioned as a major long-haul and domestic gateway and often carries a mix of full-service and some lower-cost operators; fares can be competitive on many routes. Located roughly 42 km south of the city center, it is linked by Aeroexpress in about 45–55 minutes for a moderate charge, while car or taxi journeys typically range from 50 minutes to over an hour depending on traffic and cost. Pros: strong long-haul network and straightforward rail access. Cons: distance and occasional congestion on road approaches. Vnukovo (VKO) usually serves a mix of domestic flights and some international charters and can be favored by low-cost and business carriers alike; ticket prices are often considered reasonable. It lies approximately 28 km southwest of central Moscow, with Aeroexpress-style rail or shuttle options taking around 30–50 minutes and fares in the mid-range; taxis can be quicker when roads are clear but may increase in heavy traffic. Pros: often less hectic than other hubs and convenient for certain districts. Cons: fewer late-night options and less extensive international connectivity. Zhukovsky (ZIA) is typically positioned as a secondary or budget-oriented option and often handles charter flights, low-cost carriers and overflow traffic; it can be a cheaper choice on select routes. It’s about 40–50 km southeast of the city center, with bus and shuttle services taking roughly 1–1.5 hours depending on routing and costing modest amounts; taxi rides can be faster but more variable in price. Pros: lower crowds and occasional bargain fares. Cons: longer links to central Moscow and fewer amenities or frequent services.

Atyrau Airport (GUW) serves as the main air gateway for western Kazakhstan and typically functions as a regional hub rather than a major international transfer point. Flights are usually operated by national and regional carriers, with occasional charter services; fares can be competitive compared with larger cities but may rise during peak business travel. The airport lies roughly 10–15 km from Atyrau city centre, about a 15–25 minute drive depending on traffic. Ground options commonly include taxis and private transfers, plus occasional shuttle buses; expect fares to generally range from modest taxi rates to lower-cost shared options. Pros: compact layout and short transfer times. Cons: limited international connections and fewer on-site amenities than big-city airports.
