If you are looking for a way to fly to Russia after the international sanctions due to the conflict with Ukraine, in this article I explain the different ways to get to Moscow, St. Petersburg or other cities in Russia, either by plane or by bus, in a cost-effective way.
The Finnish Government announced on November 16, 2023 the closure of its four main border crossings (Vaalimaa, Nuijamaa, Imatra and Niirala) until February 18, 2024, so buses currently do not circulate between Finland and Saint Petersburg . This means that, at the moment, to go by bus to Saint Petersburg you have to do it from Tallinn or Riga.
