Moscow is served by several major airports that cater to different traveler needs. Sheremetyevo (SVO) is the primary international hub usually handling most long-haul and premium carriers, often seen as the city’s main gateway; it lies about 30 km northwest of the center and can be reached by Aeroexpress trains in roughly 35–45 minutes or by taxi and buses in 40–70 minutes depending on traffic (fares vary widely, with Aeroexpress tickets typically moderate, taxis more variable). Vnukovo (VKO) is typically a mix of scheduled and low-cost services positioned to the southwest about 28 km from central Moscow; transfer options include Aeroexpress-like rail shuttle, buses, and taxis taking 35–60 minutes. Domodedovo (DME) lies about 42 km to the south and often serves a large share of international and domestic carriers; Aeroexpress trains take about 45–55 minutes, with bus and taxi times longer. Zhukovsky (ZIA) functions more as a secondary/low-cost and overflow airport for occasional international flights, roughly 40–50 km southeast, with fewer direct rail links and longer road transfers. Pros across the network include reasonable rail connections from the main airports and a wide choice of airlines; cons can be significant surface-traffic variability, differing terminal amenities, and extra transfer time when using the farther, budget-oriented fields.

Tribhuvan International Airport (KTM) in Kathmandu serves as Nepal’s primary international gateway and busiest airport, functioning more as a compact hub for full-service carriers and regional budget airlines alike. Major carriers such as Nepal Airlines, Buddha Air and several international and South Asian carriers operate here; fares can be competitive for domestic hops but international tickets may skew higher than some regional alternatives. The airport sits about 6–8 km from central Kathmandu; taxi rides typically take 20–40 minutes depending on traffic and cost around NPR 300–900, while airport shuttle services and ride‑hailing apps are also available. Pros: very convenient for downtown access and connecting domestic flights; cons: terminal space is limited, can be crowded, and facilities are basic compared with large international hubs.
