It will depend a lot on the airline rather than the airport ... if you really need the pushchair, then try to get it on the plane rather than gate checked. Are you connecting internationally and just happen to be going via SVO? Because if you are arriving internationally and departing domestically (or vice verse) the odds are VERY high that you'll actually have to change terminals, not just gates, and it's pretty far from SVO I to SVO II. Otherwise, it's not a very big transfer from one gate to another, so you might not really need the pushchair.

Oh yes!! Far more times than I care to recall!
Diva,it's all very hit and miss (speaking as someone on the move every six weeks or so.) Ihave now learnt that they generally lie anyway (I mean do the people in Moscow for example care what the people in Gatwick said? No!)

They will try to get you out of the plane to hang about in the draughty tunnel to wait for the chair if they promised gate delivery. Do what I do. Sit down inside the plane by the door and tell them you will disembark when the chair arrives. Travelling alone with a 4 year old, a baby and a bad shoulder,I am not physically able to walk all the wat to the luggage carousel alone.

(Where are you going? UB?)
