Moscow was once at the centre of world Communism being the capital of the Soviet Union, a city that it was almost impossible to visit. Now there are numerous cheap flights from the UK to this lovely city, now the capital of the Russian Federation.
A bargain this month is flying with SwissAir and LuxAir from London Heathrow to Domodedovo International Airport, Moscow with one stop in Zurich. The flight time outbound is 5 hours 54 minutes and the inbound flight is 7 hours 25 minutes. The cost for this return flight is £297.97, including fees and taxes.
You do have to look carefully for these types of bargains as the next cheapest option is Bmi at a cost of over £700, but this flight is a direct flight.
Also flying out of London City to Moscow is Lufthansa and their tickets start at £413 for a return flight, with a stop in Frankfurt on the outbound flight and Munich on the inbound flight.
London Heathrow and London City Airports have regular cheap flights to both Moscow’s Domodedovo and Sheremetievo Airports.
Two days may be enough time to get a taste of this fascinating city and take in a few of the sights including the Kremlin, but if you really want to explore Moscow then plan to stay for at least a week.
