Moscow airports

Sheremetyevo airport was opened on 11 August 1959; the first international flight was in 1960 to Berlin (Schonefeld Airport). Sheremetyevo-2 is the larger of the two terminals and has better facilities than Sheremetyevo-1. There is no physical connection between the two terminals; they are essentially separate airports using the same set of runways.

The building has a reputation as a seedy place prowled by even seedier taxi drivers. It's not quite that bad, but customs can be an ordeal, smoking is ubiquitous and the taxi drivers are aggressive.

When you get off your plane at Sheremetyevo you will be herded into a dingy basement to stand in the passport control line. After your passport is stamped, you will collect your baggage and go through customs. Passport control takes a minimum of 20 minutes for foreigners. Customs ranges from no time to all day.

When you leave customs you will emerge in a crowd of taxi drivers tripping over themselves trying to offer you a ride into town. If you don't want to haggle, there's a taxi desk in the center of the arrivals hall, but of course, for a higher price. The taxi ride to or from the city center should run about a half an hour to 45 minutes, depending on traffic.

There's no metro stop at the airport, but there is a regular marshrutnoye taxi, a minibus that runs along a fixed route for a fixed fare and allows passengers to get on or off wherever they want, that will take you to Rechnoy Vokzal, the nearest metro station, for 50 cents. A slower bus service runs less frequently but is cheaper.
