Sheremetyevo became the second largest airport in terms of traffic in Europe, while maintaining its leading position in the world punctuality ratings, and showed the highest volumes and growth rates of cargo turnover in the Moscow air hub.

Sheremetyevo continued to modernize the terminal and airfield complexes in order to maintain a high quality of service for base carriers, create comfortable conditions for cooperation and operational activities for them, and also to attract new aviation partners.

During the year, Sheremetyevo Airport ensured the inculcation of advanced digital and biometric technologies for the convenience and safety of passengers, acting as a leading innovator among transport companies in this area.
