Friday's trivia answer

Domodedovo International Airport is in Moscow. According to Wikipedia, Domodedovo is the largest airport in Russia in terms of passenger and cargo traffic. A total of 20.43 million passengers used Domodedovo in 2008, a 9 percent increase over 2007. The airport is 22 miles south of the center of Moscow, and is one of the city's three major airports, along with Sheremetyevo International Airport and Vnukovo Airport. My principal memory of Domodedovo is being told that I could not eat my take-out sandwich within the security zone.
