Moscow is served by several airports that together handle international, regional and low-cost traffic. Sheremetyevo (SVO) is typically the main international hub, favored by full-service carriers and offering the widest range of long-haul connections; it sits about 29 km northwest of the city and can be reached by Aeroexpress train in roughly 35–45 minutes or by car in 40–70 minutes depending on traffic, with public transit and taxi fares varying by service level. Domodedovo (DME) is another major international gateway often used by both legacy and charter airlines; it lies about 42 km southeast and is linked to the center by Aeroexpress (around 45 minutes) and road options. Vnukovo (VKO) commonly handles a mix of scheduled and business flights and can be a more budget-friendly or convenient choice for western approaches — it’s roughly 28 km southwest, connected by Aeroexpress or bus plus taxi with 35–60 minute journeys. Zhukovsky (ZIA) is a newer, smaller airport used for some low-cost and seasonal services and is positioned farther out (around 60 km southeast), accessible by bus or car in over an hour. Pros across the network include multiple transport modes and a wide airline mix; downsides can be distance from central Moscow, variable transfer times in heavy traffic, and differing levels of terminal comfort depending on the airport.

Cadjehoun Airport (COO) serves Cotonou as Benin’s primary international gateway and is typically a modest, regional hub rather than a large global airport. It usually handles a mix of West African and European scheduled services, along with some charter and budget carriers, so fares can be competitive for regional routes. The airport sits about 6–8 km from downtown Cotonou; taxi rides commonly take 15–25 minutes depending on traffic, with shared minibuses offering cheaper, slower options. Transfers can cost a few euros or equivalent local currency, while private shuttles are pricier. Pros: close to the city and simple to navigate; cons: limited lounges and fewer long-haul connections compared with major international hubs.

The minimum one-way ticket price from Moscow to Cotonou is $649 (May 2026), while the maximum is $915 (January 2026). On average, a ticket costs $703–$1,325.
