Moscow Domodedovo Airport (DME) is a privately-owned international airport located about 42km southeast of Moscow, Russia, on the outskirts of the town of Domodedovo. It is the second busiest airport in Russia, serving more than 30 million passengers per year on flights throughout Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.

The most popular time to visit Russia is during the summer months of June, July, and August. The warm weather and few rainy days make it the perfect time for sightseeing - but you'll pay a premium for it. Hotel and flight prices skyrocket during the summer, so if you want to avoid high fees you'll want to book a flight in late spring or early fall instead.To find the cheapest flights from Canada to Moscow Domodedovo Airport, try using Skyscanner's search tool above!
