Vnukovo International Airport (Russian: Внуково, IPA: [ˈvnukəvə], Internal code: ВНК) (IATA: VKO, ICAO: UUWW), is a dual-runway international airport located in Vnukovo District, 28 km (17 mi) southwest of the centre of Moscow, Russia. It is one of the four major airports that serve Moscow, along with Sheremetyevo, Domodedovo and Zhukovsky. In 2019, the airport handled 24.01 million passengers, representing an increase of 12% compared to the previous year. Vnukovo was the eleventh-busiest airport in Europe in 2021 but had a strong decline in traffic and dropped to 30th place in 2022 as a consequence of sanctions following the Russian invasion of Ukraine. As of 2024 it is the 3rd busiest airport in Russia and Post-Soviet states as well as the 38th-busiest airport in Europe. The airport was formally named "Vnukovo Andrei Tupolev International Airport" after Andrei Tupolev.
