Vnukovo is one of the oldest airports in the Moscow aviation zone, which in recent years has begun to actively develop and modernize. Currently, more than 80 regular flights to the cities of the Far East, Siberia, the North Caucasus, Armenia, Georgia, Ukraine, Moldova and up to 30 flights to non-CIS countries are carried out from here every day. Last year, 31.9 thousand flights were flown from Vnukovo, over 1.2 million passengers were served. In terms of the volume of services sold, Vnukovo ranks third, behind Sheremetyevo and Domodedovo airports. However, a massive air harbor reconstruction program could change the balance of power. Today Vnukovo Airport has two intersecting runways: Runway-1 (3000 m by 60 m, fortified shoulders 10 cm on each side, total runway width 180 m, free zones 400 m on each side) and Runway-2 (3060 m by 60 m, total runway width 180 m). The total area of the airfield (apron) is 55 hectares and has 90 equipped aircraft parking spaces.

The air terminal complex Vnukovo-2, which serves the President and the Government of the Russian Federation, uses the runways of Vnukovo Airport. At the airfield, radio and light-signaling equipment is installed, which provides

production of aircraft landing in conditions of a meteorological minimum.

Operational maintenance of aircraft is carried out by a ground handling company. Several operators work at the airport to provide airlines

onboard food.

Vnukovo Airport is located 28 km from the center of Moscow.

Express buses, route taxis and regular buses run between the air terminal and the Yugo-Zapadnaya metro station.

From the Kievskaya metro station to Vnukovo, you can take an electric train to the Airport station.
