Sheremetyevo Airport
I agree with Dave Baxter’s comments. Terminal 2 (International) it’s not that bad and has plenty of amenities, shops, bars restaurants where you can sit and relax waiting for your next flight but the prices are the most expensive I have encounter in my travels. The serving staff let’s say that are just indifferent…… or ignorant of good service. Immigration on arrival is a pain to go through as they are always very busy…….and the taxi drivers (like everywhere else in the world) simply day light robbers and very annoying! Terminal 1 (Domestic) it’s easily accessible by a free or very cheap bus and only 15-20 drive the max but outside the Departure lounge the facilities are appalling and uncomfortable. Once through security then is slightly better. Terminal 3 is near to completion and hopefully things will improve. A direct train transport to central Moscow just opened lately!

Sheremetyevo Airport
You know, once you've been through it a few times it becomes somewhat 'Endearing'? Certainly isn't so for the First Timer!! :) After a while you get to know the 'In's and Out's'. Still, it isn't what you'd expect from an international airport. Things should improve once the New Terminal is opened.... if they ever finish it!

The Airport That Time Forgot
Was that first review written by the airport's director?!! This airport is the worst I have ever visited. The decor is stuck in the 1970's, the staff are unhelpful and unfriendly, the goods are all over-priced and the eating facilities are appalling. We didn't even have seats to sit on whilst we waited for out connecting flight and had to sit on some dirty steps like everyone else. The airport still has smoking areas which are very conveniently located next to the queues for the gates so all the passengers can bathe in the smoke. These queuing areas are also located next to the shops so people keep coming to barge through to look at the perfumes and goods. Our plane was also heavily delayed due to the lack of runway space which meant the planes were backing up. Avoid this place like the plague.

Sheremetyevo Airport.
The main port of entry into Moscow, and to Russia.
Sheremetyevo houses the International and Domestic terminal, however the two are on opposite sides of the airport (access is not across the grounds). There is a loop bus, or use the taxis. The bus is normally free, and taxis do cost a bit for the short distance.
The people are friendly, and I found Immigration and Customs easy and nice to deal with. They can be hard, but it's the same with other departments for all countries I visited.
I am sure you will enjoy your visit and dealings with Sheremetyevo personal.

Worst Airport I've Been To
In my opinion SVO is without doubt the worst airport I've ever had the misfortune to visit. The only reason I came is because I was flying Aeroflot to Beirut.
The airport is old, poorly maintained; the floor tiles are coming off and feels seedy and dirty. Even worse, there's a lack of chairs and seating for travellers. It seems the airport has removed most of the chairs and moved them into the countless cafes and restaurants in order to force people to buy something in order to get a seat. The airport is filled with tax free shops, no let me correct that, the airport is a duty free shop! It's ironic how Soviet communism has been so blatantly replaced by Western commercialism. So far my impression of Russia hasn't changed; SVO sadly confirms my view of the living standard and infrastructure of the country.
