NanLaew Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 I am on a Brit passport and have an option for Russian flights that would mean changing from DME (Domodedovo) for the domestic arrival to SVE (Sheremetyevo) for the international departure. A websurf showed that ground transportation between airports is lacking and I have been told of 'unofficial tax collections' as well as hassles with Transit visas. Anyone with fresh information out there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeaceBlondie Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 This is not recent - 14 months ago, I had to make both those transfers. Huge mistake. No connection except by taxi, and I paid over 100 dollars to get from one to the other. Then a bunch more to get to and from an overnight hotel. Likewise, on the return trip, I paid a ransom to get to my new hotel, and made a deal with the taxi driver to take me to the other airport three days later for a smaller fortune. I wish I had avoided Russia altogether. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zink Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Both airports have a train connection (to different train stations), so if you have a lot of time, you can take this option: take train to the center, take subway/taxi to another train station, take train to the airport.

NanLaew Posted August 13, 2008 Author Share Posted August 13, 2008 Thanks for that! My mind is made up, I aint changing airports so I can get KLM business class so I will stay with BMI coach. I have a 5 hour layover at DME so that will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
