Moscow has more than one airport, but most likely you will use Sheremetsyevo
2, which is easily the worst and ugliest airport terminal in the world.
Dark, smoky and generally unpleasant. But you will most likely survive those
three hours, and just be glad that you will only be in transit because 1)
immigration / passport control lines are horrible for arriving / departing
passengers and 2) Moscow, IMHO, is a terrible city.
