Ottawa Macdonald–Cartier International (YOW) is the city’s main airport, functioning as a mid-sized international and government-travel hub with a mix of full-service carriers and several low-cost or regional operators. It’s located roughly 10–15 km south of downtown Ottawa, with car or taxi rides typically taking 15–25 minutes depending on traffic and costing in the range of local taxi fares or rideshares; public transit buses connect the airport to the city with journeys around 25–40 minutes for modest fares. The airport can be convenient and compact with straightforward security lines, though international connections may be fewer than at larger Canadian hubs; travelers often trade slightly higher fares for shorter transfer times and easier navigation.

Fly nonstop from Ottawa to Moscow for the fastest, most convenient way to bridge Canada and Russia — no layovers, fewer hassles, and more time to enjoy your trip. While connecting flights can sometimes be cheaper, a direct service saves hours and offers a smoother, more comfortable journey worth considering when you want to maximize time and minimize stress.

Moscow is served by several airports that together cover international, regional and low-cost travel. Sheremetyevo (SVO) typically functions as the primary international hub for full-service carriers and alliances, often positioning it as the most premium option for long-haul flights; it sits about 30–35 km northwest of the city center and can be reached by Aeroexpress train in roughly 35–45 minutes or by road in 40–90 minutes depending on traffic, with taxi fares and ride-hailing varying by provider. Vnukovo (VKO) often handles a mix of legacy and budget carriers and lies around 28–30 km southwest, accessible via Aeroexpress in about 35–40 minutes and by bus or taxi; travel times can be shorter off-peak. Domodedovo (DME) is commonly used by both full-service and low-cost airlines and is located roughly 42–45 km southeast; Aeroexpress trains typically take about 45–50 minutes, while road transfers depend heavily on congestion. Zhukovsky (ZIA) and smaller airfields can be used for some low-cost or seasonal routes and are farther from the center with less frequent public links. Pros: broad route network and frequent connections; cons: distances from central Moscow and variable traffic can add time, and services or fares may feel pricier at the main hubs compared with regional alternatives.

The cost of a one-way flight from Ottawa to Moscow ranges from $574 (December 2025) to $847 (August 2026). On average, the ticket price is about $639–$669.
