We arrived at Moscow's Domodedovo Airport at around 7:15AM, well in advance of our 9:40AM flight to Houston. Security at the airport seemed to be super tight, and not just in a "security theatre" kind of way. Even on the outside roadway there were tons of officers with machine guns. In order to enter the…

Is that a BA lounge next door? I thought their lounges were called Galleries or Terraces or something...
Thanks for this review lucky. I am taking this flight in about a month from Moscow in First Class after spending 3 weeks traveling around Europe. I can't wait for you full flight review especially of the food.
I think the luggage inspection pre-boarding is required by the US, covering all flights originating internationally bound for the US. Pretty standard.
I think the Moscow airport is stoic, bland and I would not spend any more time there than necessary, either. We stop there on Singapore Airlines , from IAH to Singapore. I like not changing planes but I like to get off and walk after 10 hours of the 1st leg. It is more crowded from Moscow to Singapore.
Moscow passengers are mainly, ladies going to the Formula One race in Singapore in August .
Domodedovo tends to have very strict security the few times I have been there. Every airport in Russia has security checkpoints when you enter the terminal, even small airports such as VVO (Vladivostok). In Moscow, I almost always use Sheremetyevo, since I usually fly Aeroflot from Vladivostok to the US with a stop in Moscow. Interestingly enough, I flew out of Sheremetyevo on Tuesday and there was very lax security and I didn't see many police. Even entering the airport, the security felt perfunctory, but not vigilant. Even I am sometimes amazed at the lack of uniformity in Russia.
This looks better than the lounge I used at SVO ( Finnair , shared). I'll be back there next week for an Aeroflot flight, maybe their lounge is better ( but won't hold my breath).
Perfect timing - I was just researching this lounge for my flight (JAL J) this coming Friday.
Was there free wifi?
In response to my question above, I'm now sitting in the very same lounge, and there is free wifi. Although it's pretty slow!
This is not a priority lounge(Even thought its listed as such), tried to access it last time and was directed to other side of the terminal(But not too far). There are two priority lounges next to each other, not a big difference in terms of food or seating and arguably may even be better(Based on this review).
This lounge is terrible: very rood stuff
Beware Airport main business lounge is terrible: very rood stuff. There is qn old russian lady who works there she yells at the passangers all the time. This lounge is a big waste of money.
