Zurich Airport (ZRH) is Switzerland’s largest international gateway and typically functions as a premium hub for Swiss International Air Lines and other full-service carriers, with some low-cost operators also present. It generally sits about 10–13 km north of Zurich city centre and can be reached by frequent trains taking roughly 10–15 minutes (tickets usually costing in the low single-digit CHF range) or by trams and buses that take 20–30 minutes. Taxis and ride-shares normally take 20–30 minutes with higher fares. Pros: efficient transfers, broad route network and high comfort levels in terminals; cons: prices for food and services can be comparatively high and peak-time crowds are common.

Moscow’s airport network includes several distinct hubs serving different traveler needs. Sheremetyevo (SVO) functions as the city’s major international gateway and premium hub, typically hosting full-service carriers and alliance connections; it sits about 29 km northwest of the center and is reachable by Aeroexpress trains in roughly 35–45 minutes or by taxi in 40–60 minutes depending on traffic, with fares that can be moderate to high. Domodedovo (DME) is another large international airport often used by both legacy and some low-cost carriers; located about 42 km south of central Moscow, it has an Aeroexpress link taking about 45–55 minutes and taxis that vary with peak congestion. Vnukovo (VKO) tends to handle a mix of domestic and international flights and can be relatively cheaper for certain routes; it lies roughly 28 km southwest and is connected by Aeroexpress or buses with travel times from 30–60 minutes. Zhukovsky (ZIA) is newer and usually serves charter and some low-cost operators, positioned about 40 km southeast; surface transport is slower and options fewer, often requiring shuttle buses or taxis with longer journey times. Pros across the airports include a range of service levels and connections, while cons can be variable transit times due to traffic and differing amenities between terminals; fare perceptions and service profiles can change seasonally, so it’s wise to compare options before booking.
