On the outbound it makes sense to fly as you mention.
On the return trip, however, it sounds like you're flying LED-SVO then going into Moscow, right?

Correct, again, we got a cheap roundtrip. I realize that getting from SVO to downtown will require more time on the train connection, but oh well.

Cellular service and mobile Internet are actually very cheap in Russia. If you have an unlocked smartphone, you could buy a local SIM card and enjoy being connected.

2GB data and 300 minutes is like $5.
