Moscow is served by several airports with distinct roles. Sheremetyevo (SVO) is typically the international premium hub handling many long-haul and flagship airline services; it’s about 29 km northwest of the city center and reachable by Aeroexpress trains in roughly 35–45 minutes or by taxi in 40–60 minutes depending on traffic (fares vary by operator). Domodedovo (DME) acts as a major international and domestic gateway with a wide mix of legacy and low-cost carriers; Aeroexpress takes about 45 minutes from the city and taxis can take 40–70 minutes. Vnukovo (VKO) usually serves both domestic and some international routes with a balance of business and budget options, around 28 km southwest, and linked by Aeroexpress and buses (travel times 30–60 minutes). Zhukovsky (ZIA) is often used for low-cost and charter flights and lies further out to the southeast; expect longer transfers by bus or taxi. Pros: good rail links on major airports and many flight options; cons: travel times can vary widely with Moscow traffic and some airports are farther from central areas, which can affect comfort and cost of transfers.
