Cheap Flights from Moscow to Sofia — $103

Moscow is served by several airports with distinct roles. Sheremetyevo (SVO) operates as the main international hub, handling most long-haul and premium carriers and often seen as pricier than budget-focused options. It lies about 29 km northwest of the city center; Aeroexpress trains take roughly 30–35 minutes to Belorussky station (fares usually in the mid-range), while taxis can take 35–60 minutes depending on traffic. Vnukovo (VKO) is a mix of full-service and low-cost airlines, located around 28 km southwest — Aeroexpress links to Kievsky station in about 35–40 minutes and taxis are comparable in time; fares and service levels can be more budget-friendly. Domodedovo (DME) is traditionally a major gateway for both international and domestic flights and sits roughly 42 km southeast; Aeroexpress to Paveletsky station is about 45 minutes and fares tend to be moderate. Zhukovsky (ZIA) is a smaller, more recently expanded airport farther southeast (about 40–50 km) that can be used by charter and low-cost carriers, often offering lower fares but fewer amenities; ground transfers and express options can be less frequent. Pros across the network include multiple transport choices and broad airline coverage; cons can include long transfer times in heavy traffic and varying levels of terminal comfort and connectivity depending on the airport.

Sofia Airport (SOF) is Bulgaria’s main international gateway and typically handles most long‑haul and European connections, serving legacy carriers and low‑cost airlines alike. Located about 10–15 km east of the city center, transfer times via metro or taxi usually range from 15–30 minutes; city buses and shuttles can take 30–45 minutes depending on traffic. Fares are generally modest for public transport (a few euros) while taxis are affordable compared with many Western capitals. Pros: frequent international services, modernized terminals and a direct metro link to the center. Cons: can be busy at peak times and some budget carriers use remote stands, adding walking or bus transfer.

The cost of a one-way flight from Moscow to Sofia ranges from $119 (December 2025) to $441 (November 2026). On average, the ticket price is about $216–$225.
