Question 1

How much is a return flight from London to Moscow?

Accepted Answer

Return flights from London to Moscow typically cost between £580 and £671 in August, though fares move with demand, season and how early you book. The lowest fare our search found recently was £500 — a great price and well below the usual range, so a price near this is worth grabbing. Keeping your dates flexible and comparing nearby days is the easiest way to land at the cheaper end.

Question 2

What is the cheapest month to fly to Moscow?

Accepted Answer

On average, January is the cheapest month to fly to Moscow, with return fares around £500, and February is another good-value option at about £500. Prices peak in July, when return tickets average around £752 because of higher demand. If your travel dates are flexible, shifting your trip into a cheaper month can save you a meaningful amount.

Question 3

What is the cheapest day to fly to Moscow?

Accepted Answer

The cheapest day to depart to Moscow is usually Friday, when fares start from around £589 — midweek departures tend to be quieter and cheaper. Tuesday is typically the most expensive day to fly out (around £718), as weekend travel is popular with leisure and business travellers alike. Where your plans allow, moving your outbound to a cheaper weekday can noticeably lower the total fare.

Question 4

What is the cheapest time of day to fly to Moscow?

Accepted Answer

Flights to Moscow are generally cheapest departing in the morning, with fares from around £500. Departures in the afternoon tend to cost more (about £671), as those slots are more convenient and in higher demand. Picking an off-peak departure time is a simple way to trim the price without changing your dates.

Question 5

What is the cheapest London airport to fly to Moscow from?

Accepted Answer

The cheapest return flights to Moscow depart from London Gatwick (LGW), from around £552. London has several airports serving this route and fares can vary between them — Stansted (STN) is often the priciest at around £1,726. It's worth checking which London airport is both cheapest and most convenient for you before booking.

Question 6

How far in advance should I book a flight to Moscow?

Accepted Answer

To get a below-average price to Moscow, aim to book roughly 26 weeks before departure, when fares tend to dip to around £500. Leaving it to the final week is usually the most expensive time to buy, costing about 55% more, as availability tightens. Booking extremely far ahead isn't always cheaper either, so a few weeks to a couple of months out is typically the sweet spot.

Question 7

What are the most popular airlines flying to Moscow?

Accepted Answer

The most popular airlines flying to Moscow are Egyptair, Azerbaijan Airlines, Emirates and Uzbekistan Airways, based on how often they appear across searches for this route. Each offers different schedules, baggage allowances and service levels, so it's worth comparing them alongside price. A well-served airline usually means more departure options and easier rebooking if your plans change.

Question 8

Which airlines provide the cheapest flights to Moscow?

Accepted Answer

Recently, the cheapest return tickets to Moscow were found on Azerbaijan Airlines (from £500) and Egyptair (from £671), with Uzbekistan Airways also competitive. The lowest-priced carrier can change from week to week depending on availability and demand. Comparing a few airlines for your exact dates is the best way to secure the cheapest fare.

Question 9

Which cabin classes are available to Moscow?

Accepted Answer

Flights to Moscow are offered in Economy, Premium Economy, Business and First, though availability varies by airline. Economy is the most affordable option (from around £552), while premium cabins cost significantly more in exchange for extra space, baggage and comfort — Business fares start from about £1,793. Choose the cabin that best balances your budget with how much comfort you want on the journey.

Question 10

How many flights fly to Moscow per week?

Accepted Answer

The most flights to Moscow are scheduled on Monday (around 4 per day), while Tuesday has the fewest (around 3) — roughly 25 flights a week in total. Travelling on a busier day gives you more choice of times and, often, better prices. If you can, avoid the quietest days when seats are more limited.

Question 11

How long is the flight to Moscow?

Accepted Answer

On average, a flight from London to Moscow takes around 20h 19m, covering roughly 3,566 miles. Total travel time depends on whether you fly direct or connect, and which UK airport you leave from — from Glasgow, for example, it's typically about 14h 00m. Direct services are the fastest, while connecting flights add the length of the layover.

Question 12

What time do flights to Moscow depart?

Accepted Answer

Flights to Moscow depart London from as early as 9:05 AM (arriving 2:30 PM) right through to a latest departure of 10:15 PM (arriving 8:45 PM). That spread lets you choose an early start to make the most of your first day, or a later flight if you'd rather not rush. Exact departure times vary by airline and day, so check the schedule for your specific dates.

Question 13

What is the rainfall in Moscow by month?

Accepted Answer

July is typically the wettest month in Moscow, with around 53 mm of rain, while February is the driest at roughly 8 mm. If you'd rather avoid the wet season, planning your trip around the drier months makes for easier sightseeing. Either way, packing light rain gear for the wetter months is always worth doing.

Question 14

What is the temperature in Moscow by month?

Accepted Answer

Moscow is warmest around July, when temperatures average about 19°C, and coolest around January at roughly -29.2°C. If you're chasing warm weather aim for the hotter months; if you prefer milder conditions, the cooler part of the year is more comfortable. Checking the forecast close to departure will help you pack right.
