Starting January 1, 2026, base fees for Russian carriers at Sheremetyevo will increase by 10%, and for foreign carriers by 3%. This is the second increase in a year.
Effective January 1, 2026, Sheremetyevo Airport will increase its airport fees. The increase will be 10% for Russian airlines and 3% for foreign carriers. This is the second increase in a year for the country's key airport, which will inevitably impact transportation costs amid rising infrastructure costs in the industry.
The basic takeoff and landing fee for domestic airlines will increase from 768.5 to 845.36 rubles per tonne of aircraft. The investment component will increase from 373.8 to 411.18 rubles. The transport security fee will also increase from 38.36 to 42.2 rubles. Passenger fees will be significantly revised. For example, the terminal fee for domestic flights in Terminals B and D will be 326.44 rubles per person, up from the previous 296.76 rubles. On international flights, service in Terminals B, C, and D will increase from 810.16 to 891.18 rubles, and in Terminals E and F, from 239.56 to 263.52 rubles. The basic fare for domestic passenger services on B and D will increase to 333.6 rubles, on C, D, E – to 368.5 rubles, on F – to 342.3 rubles.
For foreign carriers, the takeoff and landing fee will increase from $16.96 to $17.47. The transportation security fee will be $1.45 instead of $1.40. The fee for using Terminals B, C, and D will increase from $20.32 to $20.93 per passenger, and for Terminals E and F, from $12.18 to $12.55.
This decision by Sheremetyevo continues the trend of increasing infrastructure burden on airlines at the Moscow air hub. Sheremetyevo and Vnukovo already raised their fares in March 2025. Domodedovo adjusted its fees twice – in March and partially in July of this year.
As a reminder, Novaport Holding plans to attract 60 billion rubles in extra-budgetary funds for the reconstruction of 13 of its airports. This is more than half of the total extra-budgetary investment required for public-private partnership projects, which is estimated at 104 billion rubles. LR
