Moscow is served by several major airports with distinct roles. Sheremetyevo (SVO) is typically the international hub favored by legacy carriers like Aeroflot and many intercontinental flights; it can be perceived as mid-to-high price range and sits about 29 km northwest of the city center. Ground options usually include Aeroexpress trains (35–45 minutes, moderate fares), buses and taxis (45–80 minutes depending on traffic, variable fares). Domodedovo (DME) often handles a mix of full-service and some low-cost carriers, approximately 42 km south; Aeroexpress (45–60 minutes) and buses/taxis are common, with travel times and costs varying. Vnukovo (VKO) can be a budget-leaning alternative for some carriers and charters, roughly 28 km southwest; it’s reachable by Aeroexpress and road transport (40–60 minutes). Zhukovsky (ZIA) is usually used for charter and low-cost flights and lies about 40–50 km southeast, with fewer public transit options and longer transfer times. Pros across airports include frequent domestic and international connections; cons can be significant transfer times, variable fares, and traffic-dependent reliability for road transfers.

Nizhniy Novgorod’s airport (Strigino, GOJ) functions as the city’s primary international and regional gateway, handling a mix of full-service carriers and low-cost/charter operators. It sits roughly 20–25 km southwest of the city centre, with road transfers typically taking 30–50 minutes depending on traffic. Ground options include regular Aeroexpress or suburban trains on some schedules, bus routes and fixed-route taxis (marshrutka), plus conventional taxis and app-based ride services; fares can range from modest public-bus prices to mid-level taxi fares. The airport is usually efficient for connecting to other Russian hubs, though smaller terminal facilities can feel compact during peak periods — convenient for straightforward transfers but less roomy than larger international hubs.

In different months, ticket prices from Moscow to Nizhniy Novgorod vary: minimum — $44 (October 2025), maximum — $63 (November 2025). Typically, the flight costs $56–$56.
