The Russian carrier UTair now connects Berlin-Tegel with Moscow Vnukovo airport, on a daily basis. The flight time between the two capitals takes just under two and a half hours. Moscow-Vnukovo Airport (VKO) is located around twelve kilometres southwest of Moscow, being the airport in closest proximity to Moscow’s city centre. An express train brings passengers and guests within 35 minutes to Kiyevskaya Railway Station, a transport hub in the centre of Moscow. The connection is an attractive addition for holidaymakers, as well as city and business travellers.
