Domodedovo and Sheremetyevo airports in Moscow continue to operate normally as of May 17, 2026, while other Russian airports such as Vnukovo, Krasnodar, and Gelendzhik face flight suspensions and restrictions. This ongoing operational stability at the two major Moscow airports helps sustain passenger and cargo flows in the capital. The uneven airport restrictions affect regional connectivity and may disrupt travel and logistics outside Moscow.
