You are 100% right-on correct.
[QUOTE]I did. It takes about 15 minutes to walk within the airport (under the roof, not in the wet street) from station to terminal. Better take a bit more time because on the way you may come in the mood to take a cup of coffe or something stronger in one of the local coffe-shops. The train itself is comfortable and gies in time.[/QUOTE] Helena speaks the truth. The Aeroexpress terminal is GORGEOUS compared with SVO2. I had a few hours to kill when I came through on Monday night on the way to Turkmenistan so I took a stroll over to check it out. The walkway from the SVO2 terminal (departures level) is a 5 minute walk so if you don't have too much luggage it's a breeze. The walkway itself is covered with a temporary structure but you can see that they have plans for a permanent connection. There are all kinds of shops and cafes (even a Starbucks!!!!!!) and the place is DESERTED. Don't think it will stay that way though. When I came in last night, I had ordered a car so I didn't take the train itself. But the fucker parked the car underneath the Aeroexpress terminal so we had to walk all that way anyhow!!!!! Ha, ha. But the traffic was light last night at 8:00 PM so it was no biggie. But if you are coming or going from SVO during the rush hour, I would STRONGLY suggest that you consider taking the train from Savelovsky station....... unless of course you enjoy sitting in a car for an hour.
Train from Svelovsky Station
I tried to take the train this week having seen the shiny new terminal on my way into Moscow. After making my to the station i found that I had missed the 11am train and the next one was not till after 2pm. If you are going to use this service be careful and check the timing of trains.
[QUOTE=Helena Moscow][QUOTE=Jake993]Has anyone actually taken the new(ish) Aero Express train from SVO-2 to Savelovsky Station? How far is the walk from the arrivals area to the train terminus at SVO-2?[QUOTE]I did.

T-stan mini report or Turk(men)ish Delight
Before I completely forget the details, need to tell you guys about my experience in Ashgabat last week. I will spare you the rant about my lost luggage but go straight to the part about the pussy.
3 nights - 2 different girls. Both pick up in Grand Turkmen Hotel (formerly Sheraton)
Disco - I met Shemsha at about 1:20 AM. She was on the dance floor groov'in by herself and I was checking SMS's on my Blackberry ( no BB service in Turkmenistan yet) . She was making faces at me and eventually came over to see what I was doing. Cute little impish Turkmen girl from Mary (pronounced Ma-Rhree) could NOT have been more than 45 Kg. Classic spinner. Dark hair, dark eyes. I will post a photo once I figure out how to get if off my BB.
After some Fred and Ginger action on the dance floor we headed to my room and got the usual scrutiny from Okranky who were friendly and discreet. Got to my room and 5 minutes later Shemsha was knocking at the door. She came in and I ask her old she was and she told me that she had just turned 18. Gulp - now I feel creepy. I asked how long she had been doing this and she said it was her second week. Ah, a rookie.
Couple of drinks - touchy feely, grabby grabby and the clothes come off. Quick rinse in the shower and she gets down to BBBJ. Getting ready for round 2, and she asks if I had any condoms. Well, normally I would but since my luggage was lost I was without. She looked at me and said, "OK, no problem it will be ok we can do it without". After a millisecond of thought I told her to get dressed, go downstairs to the lounge and get one from one of her friends. After 5 minutes she was back and we were at it. Quite a wild ride. The BBBJ was not great as she was clearly not very experienced. But the in-out was very enthusiastic. Did not ask for anal but I am sure it was on the menu. Two hours - $100 plus 30,000 Manat (about $2.15) for cab fare!!!!!!!!
Next night I was a bit early for the disco which normally does not get going until midnight so I went to the lounge bar on the second floor. There were 3 or four girls at the bar and another 3 or 4 in the chairs. I sat at the bar and ordered a vodka and tonic. BTW – the local vodka, Ashgabatskaya, is quite good and much cheaper than the Russian Standard they try to push on you. One of the girls at the bar was on the phone and the taller of the two went the ladies room. The one left was a Turkmen girl (the other two were clearly ethnic Russians) and her name was Mely-sa. What a peach. 27 recently divorced, on the job for two months now. Dark hair but not what you would think of as Asian. On first glance you might have said she was Italian. Relatively light skin but she swears she is pure Turkmen. Petite figure, big smile, and spoke reasonable English. I sat and drank with her and her friends for a few hours with the intention of going to the disco but that did not materialize and I went upstairs with Melysa. Their program was different and according to Melysa, it’s a standard program for $150 with very little room for negotiation. They pay the security about $30 for each trick. The girls in the lounge are more of a fixture and are well known to security. The girls in the disco are more hit and miss.
Melysa was spectacular. Full three holer with major enthusiasm in all departments. Probably the best BBBJ I have ever had. Very slow, sensual, seemed to go on forever. Like a kid with a lolly pop. No joke. Definitely a keeper. She spent almost 2 hours with me but the program is technically an hour.
Final night, I thought about going to the disco or picking something up from the British Pub across the street but I just had to tag Melysa one more time. Called her at 9:00 PM and she was on her way to the hotel in minutes. This time it was a full three hours (same price) and it was mind numbing. I am sure she would have stayed but I had an early flight so I released her.
I suppose I should have posted this in the Turkmenistan section but I didn't want the Moscow aficionados to miss this report.
