Airport Transfer
Aeroexpress (https://aeroexpress.ru/en/)
A train that connects Moscow and its airports.
Price:
- 500 RUB (~7 EUR) at the ticket vending machines at the terminal
- 420 RUB (~6 EUR) online.

Duration of the trip (the metro station you get to):
- 35 minutes - between Sheremetyevo and Belorusskiy railway station
(Belorusskaya metro station, brown and green lines)
- 45 minutes - between Domodedovo and Paveletskiy railway station
(Paveletskaya metro station, brown and green lines)
- 35 minutes - between Vnukovo and Kievskiy railway station
(Kievskaya metro station, brown, blue and dark blue lines).

Aeroexpress leaves you right next to the metro, so you will have to
take the metro (or a taxi) to get to your hotel (check your nearest
metro station in advance).

Taxi
We recommend using apps like Uber, Yandex.Taxi or
Gett (which you can download on iTunes or Google store) to
get a cheaper taxi to/from the airport. We don't
recommend taking local taxis offered at the airport.
The average price for a taxi from the airport is about 1000 RUB
(~14 EUR). A taxi ride between any of Moscow's airports and
the center of the city takes about 45 minutes, provided there's
no traffic. During the peak hours (7:00 – 11:00 and 17:00 –
22:00) the airport transfer may take up to 1 hour 45 minutes.

You can get a standard taxi directly at the terminal, however,
you will probably end up paying more.

Mobile services
There are 5 major mobile network providers in Russia: MTS,
                                                                      NATIONAL
BeeLine, Megafon, Tele2 and Yota.
                                                                      RESEARCH
The prices, coverage, and services offered by these operators are     UNIVERSITY
quite similar. We recommend you buy pre-paid SIM cards at the
airport.                                                              HIGHER
                                                                      SCHOOL OF

  Airports and metro have free Wi-Fi. To connect, you usually
  need to find the appropriate network, launch your phone

from 5:30AM until 1:00AM.

All metro lines have their own
colour.

lines. Metro entrances are marked
with a large red letter «M».

You can buy tickets for 1, 2, 20, 40,
and 60 trips (tickets can be shared).

Yandex.Metro is a free and very
useful app. You can look at maps and
calculate routes even without
Internet connection.

       Ground Public Transport
       Moscow’s public ground transportation includes buses, trolley buses, and
       trams. You can purchase tickets from drivers or in booths near the stops.
       Passes are also available for purchase in metro stations. It is highly
       recommended not to purchase the passes from the drivers as you will have
       to pay much more in this case. Public transport operates from 5:30AM until
       1:00AM. There are a few night routes.

       Bus stops are marked by yellow plates marked with 'A' signs, trolley stops
       – by white plates with 'T', and tram stops – with white plates 'Tp'.

       Yandex.Transport app can help you navigate the city using the public
       transport (you can download it on App Store or Google store).
