Moscow is served by several airports with distinct roles. Sheremetyevo (SVO) is typically the main international hub favored by full-service carriers and alliance partners, and can be perceived as mid-to-upper in price; it sits about 29 km northwest of the city center, reachable by Aeroexpress train in roughly 35–45 minutes or by taxi in 40–70 minutes depending on traffic (fares vary considerably, with train tickets usually lower-cost). Domodedovo (DME) often handles many long-haul and domestic flights with a mix of legacy and some lower-cost carriers; it’s about 42 km south, with Aeroexpress services taking around 45 minutes and taxis taking longer and costing more. Vnukovo (VKO) typically serves a mix of charter and budget airlines plus some business traffic, located roughly 28 km southwest — Aeroexpress and buses connect it in about 35–60 minutes. Zhukovsky (ZIA) is usually used for low-cost and charter operations and is farther out (around 40–50 km), so travel times can be substantially longer and transfers less frequent. Pros: good rail links to central Moscow from major airports; options for a range of budgets. Cons: variable road congestion, transfers between airports can be time-consuming, and service levels vary by terminal.

Rio de Janeiro is served primarily by two airports with distinct roles. Tom Jobim/Galeão (GIG) functions as the international gateway and is typically used by full-service carriers and some regional airlines; it’s usually considered mid-to-upper range in price compared with domestic alternatives. Located about 20–25 km north of downtown (roughly 30–50 minutes by road depending on traffic), main access options include taxi or rideshare (around 50–120 BRL), the BRT/Express bus and the recent light rail connections, and airport shuttle services that can be cheaper but slower. Pros: comprehensive international connections, full-service facilities; cons: can be congested and travel times to the city vary greatly with traffic. Santos Dumont (SDU) sits much closer to the city center and is typically favored for domestic and short-haul flights, often served by national carriers and low-cost regional operators. It’s usually perceived as a more convenient but sometimes more expensive option for intra-Brazil routes due to its prime location—only about 2–4 km from the historic center and roughly 10–20 minutes by taxi or metro, with fares typically lower than long-distance rides. Pros: proximity to the city, quick transfers and scenic approach; cons: smaller terminal capacity and limited international service compared with Galeão. Both airports can be practical depending on whether you prioritize international connectivity or quick access to downtown.

In different months, ticket prices from Moscow to Rio De Janeiro vary: minimum — $634 (March 2026), maximum — $1,077 (July 2026). Typically, the flight costs $849–$864.
