The airport typically offers solid passenger amenities and straightforward layouts, but distance and occasional traffic can make transfers slower. It’s a practical choice for long-haul and regional flights, balancing convenience and price for many travelers.

The terminals are generally compact and easier to navigate, which can mean quicker check-ins, though international connectivity may be less extensive than the largest hubs. It can be a convenient option for quicker domestic transfers or business travel. Zhukovsky (ZIA) is usually positioned as a secondary airport for Moscow, used mainly for charter flights, some low-cost services, and special events rather than as a primary international hub. It lies approximately 40–45 km southeast of the city center, and travel can take around 50–90 minutes by car or longer by public transport; transfer options can be more limited and fares typically depend on shuttle or taxi services. The airport is often less crowded and can be cheaper on certain routes, but passengers should weigh fewer flight choices and longer ground transfers against potential savings.
