Moscow is served by several airports with distinct roles. Sheremetyevo (SVO) functions as the principal international hub, typically hosting full-service carriers and long-haul flights; it lies about 30–35 km northwest of the city center and can be reached by Aeroexpress train in roughly 35–45 minutes or by taxi in 40–70 minutes depending on traffic, with fares varying by operator. Vnukovo (VKO) often handles a mix of legacy and low-cost airlines and is roughly 28–35 km southwest, accessible by Aeroexpress plus local transfer or taxi in 30–60 minutes. Domodedovo (DME) is another major international gateway commonly used by both full-service and budget carriers, about 42–50 km southeast; Aeroexpress trains take around 45–55 minutes and taxis are slower but convenient. Zhukovsky (ZIA) and Ostafyevo serve secondary or charter traffic and can be cheaper or more direct for specific routes, though they are farther out and offer limited public transit. Pros: multiple options and frequent connections across carriers; cons: significant distances and heavy traffic can add time and variability to transfers.

Chennai International Airport (MAA) is Tamil Nadu’s primary international gateway and a busy hub for full-service carriers alongside a growing selection of low-cost airlines. It handles most long-haul and regional flights, with domestic connections to major Indian cities and frequent services by both legacy and budget operators. The airport sits roughly 15–20 km south of Chennai’s central business districts; road transfer to the city center typically takes 30–60 minutes depending on traffic, while pre-paid taxis, ride-hailing apps and app-based cabs are common (fares can vary widely). There is also a suburban rail link and shuttle buses for budget-conscious travelers. Advantages include extensive airline choices and modern terminal facilities; however, peak-hour traffic and occasional congestion en route can affect journey times and comfort.

The minimum one-way ticket price from Moscow to Chennai is $255 (December 2025), while the maximum is $1,115 (October 2026). On average, a ticket costs $369–$581.
