Sheremetyevo International (SVO) is Moscow’s principal international hub and typically handles most long-haul and premium carriers, including flag carriers and Star Alliance partners. Located about 29 km northwest of the city center, it can take roughly 35–60 minutes by Aeroexpress train plus local transport or 40–90 minutes by road depending on traffic; train fares are generally moderate while taxis and ride-hailing vary with distance and demand. The airport tends to offer a wide range of lounges and services, making it convenient for connecting and business travelers, though peak-hour road congestion can make surface transfers less predictable. Domodedovo Airport (DME) serves many international and domestic routes and is often used by full-service and some low-cost airlines alike. Situted around 42 km south of central Moscow, travel times are commonly 45–75 minutes by Aeroexpress and 50–120 minutes by car, with public transport fares usually affordable and taxis pricier. Domodedovo can be perceived as a mid-priced option with solid passenger facilities and straightforward connections, though travellers should account for occasional long road transfers and terminal-walking distances. Vnukovo International (VKO) functions as a mix of international and business-oriented operations and is often favored by private and charter flights as well as several scheduled carriers. Approximately 28 km southwest of downtown, it’s accessible in about 35–60 minutes by Aeroexpress plus local transit or 40–90 minutes by road, with public transit being economical and private transfers costing more. Vnukovo is generally convenient for western approaches and can be less hectic than the largest hub, but services and airline choice may be narrower than at the busiest airport. Zhukovsky International (ZIA) is a newer, smaller airport that typically handles a mix of low-cost, charter, and some regional international services rather than being a major hub. Located roughly 40 km southeast of the city center, journeys commonly take about 55–90 minutes by road or longer by public connections; fares are usually on the lower side for buses and trains, while taxis are variable. Zhukovsky can offer lower queueing and simpler navigation, but flight frequency and onward ground transport options may be limited compared with the larger Moscow airports.

Bilbao Airport (BIO) serves as the main international gateway for Spain’s Basque Country, combining full-service carriers and several low-cost airlines that typically offer good value on European routes. The terminal is compact and usually easy to navigate, about 12 km (roughly 20–30 minutes by road) from Bilbao city centre. Transport options include frequent bus services (around 20–30 minutes; low single-digit euro fares), taxis (shorter door-to-door trips but higher cost), and car hire. Pros: relatively quick security and a modern terminal with some shops and eateries. Cons: can feel busy at peak times and connections to some regional towns may require extra transfers.

Fly nonstop from Moscow to Bilbao for the fastest, most convenient way to reach Spain’s Basque coast—less hassle, no layovers, and more time to enjoy pintxos and city sights. While connecting options can sometimes be cheaper, a direct flight saves time and delivers a smoother, more comfortable travel experience, so book the straightforward option when your schedule matters.

The minimum one-way ticket price from Moscow to Bilbao is $164 (December 2025), while the maximum is $306 (July 2026). On average, a ticket costs $232–$268.
