Moscow is served by several airports with distinct roles. Sheremetyevo (SVO) functions as the city’s primary international hub and typically handles most long-haul and premium carriers, while Domodedovo (DME) is another major international gateway often used by full-service and some international low-cost operators. Vnukovo (VKO) can be a convenient option for business and charter traffic and is sometimes perceived as easier to navigate; it also hosts a mix of legacy and budget flights. Zhukovsky (ZIA) is a newer, smaller airport that primarily handles charter and low-cost carriers and can offer lower fares on some routes. Distances to central Moscow range from about 28 km (Vnukovo) up to 48 km (Domodedovo, Zhukovsky varies), with travel times typically 30–90 minutes depending on traffic. Ground options include Aeroexpress trains from Sheremetyevo, Domodedovo and Vnukovo terminals (around 35–45 minutes; usually higher fares than buses), regular commuter trains or buses (longer, cheaper), taxis and ride-hailing services (variable time and price), and airport shuttles. Pros: Sheremetyevo and Domodedovo provide extensive international connections and frequent public links to the city; Vnukovo can be quicker for west-side arrivals and often less crowded. Cons: Road traffic can sharply increase transfer times, cheaper airports or flights may require longer ground transfers, and facilities at smaller terminals can be more basic.
Fly direct from Moscow to Samarkand for the fastest, most convenient way to reach Uzbekistan’s historic heart—no layovers, less hassle, and more time to enjoy the city. While connecting flights can sometimes be cheaper, a nonstop trip saves hours and offers a more comfortable, stress-free journey worth the investment.
Samarkand International Airport (SKD) serves as Uzbekistan’s main gateway to the ancient city and typically functions as a regional international hub rather than a large intercontinental transfer point. It usually handles a mix of national carrier and regional airlines, with occasional charter flights during peak tourist seasons; fares can be competitive compared with larger Central Asian hubs. The airport lies about 10–15 km (roughly 20–30 minutes) from the historic center by car; taxis and hotel shuttles are the most common options, while local buses can be slower but cheaper. Pros: relatively compact terminals and straightforward arrivals. Cons: limited late-night services and fewer direct international connections than bigger capital airports.
