Vnukovo International Airport guide

Vnukovo is Moscow's oldest operating airport. The first stage of the airport entered service on 2 July 1941, and it later became a civil facility. It sits on the southwest side of the city, about 28 km from the centre of Moscow and a short distance outside the Moscow Ring Road.

The airport handled about 16 million passengers in 2024, an increase of 10.3% on 2023. That makes it the third busiest airport in Russia. Pobeda, Utair and Azimuth all maintain bases here.

Two intersecting runways serve the airport, 3,500 m and 3,060 m long. Passenger flights, domestic and international, use Terminal A, which reopened in a new building in December 2010. Vnukovo-3, opened in 2006, handles business and charter traffic. Vnukovo-2 is reserved for government and diplomatic flights.
