Ongoing Ukrainian drone attacks have repeatedly prompted Russian authorities to suspend arrivals and departures at Moscow's major airports, including Sheremetyevo, Domodedovo, and Vnukovo, as well as impose broader airspace restrictions such as lowered flight altitudes and bans on transit over the region. These measures, implemented for security reasons amid the Russia-Ukraine conflict, caused multiple temporary closures in June 2026 and led to updated NOTAMs effective through at least August. Recent U.S. Embassy advisories highlight the pattern of frequent disruptions. Traders monitor escalation signals, Ukrainian strike patterns, and Russian air defense responses, as these directly influence the likelihood and timing of further suspensions within resolution windows.

The relevant airports are:
- Sheremetyevo (SVO);
- Domodedovo (DME); and
- Vnukovo (VKO).
A qualifying suspension refers to official flight restrictions suspending both departures and arrivals at all three airports for any amount of time. Such suspensions may be issued as one singular order or separate notices, provided suspensions of arrivals and departures are concurrently in effect at all three airports between market creation and the specified date, 11:59 PM ET. Suspensions described as "temporary restrictions on arrivals and departures" at the relevant airports by Russian authorities will qualify.
The primary resolution source will be official communications from the Russian government and Russian aviation authorities, including the Rosaviatsiya federal air transport agency; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
