Vnukovo International Airport is one of the three airports that serve the city of Moscow, and the third busiest airport in the country of Russia, handling over 15 million passengers a year. Located 30 kilometres from the city centre, south-west of downtown Moscow, it is a key transport hub serving the country, hosting significant international airlines.

The airport is home to two passage terminals, A and B, with a separate third terminal for business flights and employs over 4,000 people. The passenger lounges include a range of duty-free shops, comfortable waiting areas and restaurants, bars and cafes in a wide, open and modern space. In addition to calm passenger lounges, the airport has space for exclusive visitors, including a VIP hall for political leaders and significant figures, including the Russian President on international travel journeys.

An express train service, called Aeroexpress, connects the airport with Moscow City centre, providing direct links to Kiyevsky Rail Terminal in only 25 minutes. There are also local bus lines travelling to and from Vnukovo, from the airport bus station, and visitors have access to a private line for more luxurious travel. Alternatively, visitors can easily find a taxi outside the doors of the airport, or drivers can travel by car and park in any of the many parking lots and garages.

Opening in 1941, Vnukovo is the oldest airport in Moscow, originally used as a military base during WWII and established itself as a public transport hub after the end of the war. The airport expanded in 1980 for the Summer Olympic Games. Following the year 2000, major redevelopments took place at Vnukovo, including renovations of Terminals A, B, and the construction of the Aeroexpress connection to Moscow centre.
