What this Moscow & San Francisco page shows
This page compares the full metro areas of Moscow (SVO, DME, VKO) and San Francisco (SFO, OAK, SJC) and lists every destination both cities can reach on a nonstop flight: 10 in all, across 7 countries and 3 regions. For each one you can see the flight time and distance from MOW and from SFO, so the trade-off between the two legs is clear at a glance.
Use the map to see how far the options spread, then check the meet-in-the-middle pick (Beijing has the smallest gap in flight distance here) before opening the full table to sort all 10 shared routes. To filter by month and check live fares, open the Midway app with Moscow and San Francisco already loaded.
