Moscow is served by several major airports with distinct roles. Sheremetyevo (SVO) functions as the primary international hub, typically handling most long-haul and premium carriers and often perceived as mid-to-upper in price; it sits about 30 km northwest of the city center and is reachable by Aeroexpress train in roughly 35–45 minutes or by taxi in 40–70 minutes depending on traffic, with fares that can be moderate to high. Vnukovo (VKO) is often used by both full-service and budget airlines, located about 28 km southwest; Aeroexpress and buses take around 35–50 minutes, while taxis vary by traffic and can be cheaper than Sheremetyevo. Domodedovo (DME) — approximately 42 km southeast — is another major international gateway favored by a mix of carriers and can feel more budget-friendly on some routes; Aeroexpress and bus links take about 45–55 minutes. Zhukovsky (ZIA) functions more as a secondary/low-cost and charter airport farther out (roughly 40–50 km southeast), with fewer scheduled services and longer surface travel times. Pros include multiple airport choices that can match different budgets and schedules; cons are variable transfer times due to Moscow traffic and the need to confirm which airport your flight uses, as switching between airports can add substantial travel time.

Fly direct from Moscow to Ulan‑Ude for the quickest, most convenient way to get across Siberia — fewer hassles, no long layovers, and more time to enjoy your destination. While connecting flights can sometimes be cheaper, a nonstop route saves hours and delivers a more comfortable, stress-free journey that’s worth considering when planning your trip.

Ulan-Ude’s military-civil Ulan-Ude Airport (Baikal) serves as the region’s primary gateway for both scheduled domestic flights and occasional international charters, while smaller airfields handle local or private traffic. Carriers tend to be Russian domestic airlines, including regional operators and low-cost-ish options on key routes, so fares can be moderate to budget-friendly depending on season. The airport lies about 10–15 km northeast of the city center; taxis take roughly 20–35 minutes with fares commonly in the local range, and fixed-route minibuses or buses may take 30–50 minutes for lower cost. Pros: straightforward layout and close proximity to downtown; cons: limited dining/shopping compared with larger hubs and fewer flight choices.
