Field and clock profile

Domodedovo International Airport is a low-elevation field at 588 ft (179 m), positioned at 55.4088° N, 37.9063° E in the Northern high mid-latitudes. The runway snapshot lists 2 runways and a longest runway of 11,483 ft / 3,500 m. The airport clock uses Europe/Moscow (MSK, UTC+03:00), so cross-date arrivals should be checked against this zone rather than the airline origin city.

Vostryakovo is the closest retained city-time anchor at 6.3 km. ZIA Moscow is the closest retained airport alternative at 22 km.

Country airport peers

DME is compared with ZIA Moscow at 22 km, VKO Moscow at 45 km, SVO Moscow at 70 km, GOJ Nizhny Novgorod at 378 km, LED St. Petersburg at 667 km inside the retained Russia airport set, which is useful when backup airports share the same country context but differ by city, route network, and clock behavior.

These operational notes prefer the structured airport facts snapshot, then fall back to the accepted airport reference at domodedovo.ru, then blend that with local timezone, route, and city-access data already on this page.

Decision matrix for DME

These are the specific situations where this airport page earns its keep: time-zone conversion, city transfer planning, nearby airport backup logic, and source-confidence checks before acting.

When the clock matters

DME uses Europe/Moscow (MSK, UTC+03:00). Use this before overnight arrivals, cross-date departures, and same-day connections.

When surface access matters

Domodedovo International Airport is about 42 km from central Moscow; build that transfer into arrival and check-in planning.

When alternates matter

ZIA Moscow is the closest retained alternate at 22 km, time difference +0h.

When source checks matter

domodedovo.ru is listed as the official airport website in the airport facts snapshot; live schedules, gates, routes, terminals, and NOTAM-sensitive operations still need official airport or airline verification.

How this airport compares nearby

These comparisons place DME inside the retained airport graph by country, timezone, elevation, and coordinate neighbors. They are deterministic dataset facts, not generated flight claims.

Country-rank position

DME ranks #2 in the curated Russia airport set when large airports are listed before medium airports, then sorted by IATA code. The retained country set has 14 airports.

Same-zone airport cohort

DME shares Europe/Moscow with GOJ Nizhny Novgorod RU · KZN Kazan RU · LED St. Petersburg RU · ROV Rostov-on-Don RU · SVO Moscow RU · VKO Moscow RU. This helps separate same-clock airports by city, country, code, and geography.

Elevation-neighbor cohort

DME is 588 ft (179 m). Closest elevation peers in the retained airport set include LYP 591 ft (180 m) (3 ft delta) · BNA 599 ft (183 m) (11 ft delta) · VIE 600 ft (183 m) (12 ft delta) · LCJ 604 ft (184 m) (16 ft delta) · DFW 607 ft (185 m) (19 ft delta).

Coordinate-neighbor check

DME's nearest retained coordinate neighbors are ZIA 22 km +0h · VKO 45 km +0h · SVO 70 km +0h.

Ground Transport and Nearby Context

Because the airport sits well outside central Moscow, surface transfer planning matters almost as much as flight timing, especially for late arrivals and early departures.

Moscow is the nearest mapped city anchor in the current dataset, which makes it the cleanest companion page when travelers want to switch from airport timing into local city timing.

Domodedovo International Airport has 3 nearby indexed airport alternatives, which makes backup departures and diversion logic part of real planning instead of a theoretical edge case.

Nearby city time anchors

Airport pages are most useful when they bridge into real city clocks. These city anchors are ranked by distance from DME, then shown with their own timezone, local time, and time difference from the airport clock.
