Any suggestions on best ticket brokers for flights from east coast of U.S. to Moscow or Minsk in August? Has anyone purchased tickets through a site called waytorussia.com? My dates are flexible, but looking for less expensive flights. Have already tried expedia, travelocity, and the usual sources.Thanks!

Have you checked Finnair ? We flew NYC to Moscow and from St. Petersburg a few years ago. Excellent airline. We get brochures from Finnair now and then advertising their deals.

Have you tried Cheaptickets? They often have better prices than the sites you've mentioned, but I haven't used them yet.

Have you tried Aeroflot directly?

You might also try the Russia National Group in New York. Their website is www.russia-travel.com

I would search for a cheap ticket to Europe anywhere. From all major portals in Europe you can connect to Moscow on Aeroflot. I always fly Delta FL#30 to Moscow, but I assume there are less expensive ways to get there.
I think the previous poster's suggestion of Finnair is good..but assume also that most any European airline will get the job done.
Your gonna love Russia!
