Sheremetyevo
International Airport is located
29km (18 miles) north-west of Moscow
The airport is a hub for
the passenger operations of the Russian
international airline Aeroflot, and one of
the three major airports serving Moscow
along with Domodedovo International Airport
and Vnukovo.
Flights to cities in Russia and charter
flights arrive and depart from Sheremetyevo
1. Sheremetyevo 2, the larger of the two
terminals, is the arrival and departure
point for international flights.
There is no physical connection between the
two terminals; they are essentially separate
airports using the same set of runways.
Getting to Sheremetyevo airport from Moscow
It
can take anywhere from 20 minutes to two
hours from the city center to get to the
airport. The main road leading to the
airport, Leningradskoe Highway, can get
clogged during the rush hours.
Calling a cab from downtown Moscow to
Sheremetyevo costs around $30–40. Slow buses
and faster minivans (fixed price shared
taxis, known as marshrutkas) connect
Sheremetyevo with Moscow's extensive metro
network.
