Sheremetyevo bought Domodedovo for 66 billion rubles.
Sheremetyevo Airport has acquired its direct competitor, Domodedovo Airport. The deal took place at auction, where the asset's price was reduced from the initial 132 billion rubles to 66 billion. However, in addition to the airport, the owner also inherited Domodedovo's debt of 70 billion rubles. Sheremetyevo described the acquisition as a business project to rehabilitate a complex facility with debts and losses.
Moscow will now have the country's largest air hub. The impact on tourists is still unclear: everything will depend on whether Domodedovo remains independent or becomes a "branch" of Sheremetyevo. The era of three competing airports in the capital is coming to an end.
