Moscow is served by several airports with distinct roles. Sheremetyevo (SVO) is typically the international hub favored by full-service carriers and SkyTeam members; it can be pricier on average but offers extensive long-haul connections. Vnukovo (VKO) often handles a mix of legacy and charter flights and can be competitive for Western and some low-cost services. Domodedovo (DME) is generally a major point for both domestic and international connections with a wide airline mix and mid-range pricing perception. Zhukovsky (ZIA) and smaller regional fields may see more charter and low-cost traffic. Travel time to the city center varies: Aeroexpress trains link Sheremetyevo, Domodedovo and Vnukovo to central stations in about 30–45 minutes with fares typically in the moderate range; road transfers can take 40–90 minutes depending on traffic and may be cheaper with shared shuttles or pricier with private cars. Bus and metro/commuter-rail combinations provide lower-cost options but often require transfers and 60–90+ minute journeys. Pros: multiple airports give flexible scheduling and carrier choice; many have dedicated rail links and lounges. Cons: spread-out network can be confusing for first-time visitors, surface travel times are highly traffic-dependent and some smaller airports have limited public-transport frequency.

Saransk Airport (IATA: SKX) serves the capital of the Republic of Mordovia as a small regional hub, handling primarily domestic and occasional international charter flights. Carriers at Saransk are typically regional and low-cost operators, so fares can be competitive compared with larger Russian gateways but may vary with season and limited frequency. The airport lies about 12–15 km northeast of the city centre; a taxi or rideshare takes roughly 20–30 minutes and usually costs modestly by local standards, while local buses and minibuses (marshrutkas) provide cheaper transfers in around 30–40 minutes. Pros: compact terminal, quick walk times and straightforward transfers. Cons: fewer flight options, limited amenities and less frequent international connections.

In different months, ticket prices from Moscow to Saransk vary: minimum — $67 (October 2025), maximum — $141 (March 2026). Typically, the flight costs $98–$122.
