Despite the fact that Vnukovo is the oldest airport in Moscow, its infrastructure is quite conveniently designed and allows you to quickly find your way around. The layout of Vnukovo Airport is quite simple - the complex consists of 3 terminals - A, B and D. In addition, there is a closed VIP terminal serving the government and charter flights.

  • Vnukovo-1 is intended for passenger flights.
  • Vnukovo-2 is a government terminal. Despite the fact that Vnukovo is the smallest airport in Moscow, its importance cannot be underestimated, since among the people it serves are the president of the country and members of the governments of foreign countries. The terminal is located one and a half kilometers from the passenger complex.
  • Vnukovo-3 is a business aviation service center located westward on the airfield. The complex has direct access to Borovskoye Highway.

Passenger complex Vnukovo-1

Vnukovo-1 air terminal is the most popular complex, consisting of three terminals adjacent to each other. Vnukovo A - this terminal serves the majority of domestic and international flights operating regularly. Vnukovo B accepts charters. Vnukovo D only accepts flights from the North Caucasus. It is partially decommissioned.

Terminal A

The main building that deserves special attention is Terminal A. It consists of several levels, including underground. This is the most spacious terminal, equipped in accordance with modern requirements.

The underground level is combined with the railway station, where the Aeroexpress train arrives; it is in many ways similar to the capital’s metro. The lower level is connected to the upper halls of the terminal by an elevator.

The first level of the terminal is designed to serve arriving flights and is equipped with a waiting room for greeting passengers. Here, arriving passengers undergo customs control and receive their luggage.

The second level is designed to serve departing passengers. Check-in counters are located here, where customs and passport control are carried out, as well as boarding gates. In a sterile area, all the infrastructure that passengers may need is located. Shops, children's rooms, ATMs, cafes and cinemas. The boarding gates are also located here: on the right side of the terminal for international flights, and on the left for domestic flights.

The third level houses airline representative offices and business lounges. It impresses with its huge space and high undulating ceiling, decorated with glass inserts.

Switching between terminals

Looking at the diagram, you will notice that the Entrance to Terminal A is located on the underground level, so you can get to the terminal from Aeroexpress without going outside, which significantly reduces travel time if the departure is from Terminal A. You can also get to the terminal from the location area multi-storey parking lots. The diagram shows that they are located near the exit from the overpass.

On the opposite side, opposite the parking lots, there is a bus stop from which buses depart to the Yugo-Zapadnaya metro station. Thus, there is also an entrance to Terminal A from public transport stops.

This terminal can also be accessed from the overpass (check-in is free) through the departures area located on the second floor.

You can only go from Terminal A to Terminal B or D along the street. This should be taken into account when planning your time so as not to miss your flight.

It is impossible to get from the overpass to terminals B and D. The entrance to the terminals is located at ground level.

Terminal D can be reached by using the entrance to Terminal B. Both terminals are connected by a walkway. There is no separate exit from Terminal D. As the diagram shows, it is located between terminals A and B and is a walk-through.

Important! Since August 2015, the exit pattern from Terminal A has been changed. The ability to use the exit from the departure area, located on the second level of Terminal A, to the overpass, is limited. This was done in order to increase the safety of passengers and eliminate congestion that began to form on the overpass as a result of drivers’ abuse of parking rules on the overpass.

You need to check your departure terminal in advance, as well as review the route between terminals according to the airport map in order to prevent being late for your flight.
