"Me thinks not. trying to look at what a mess it would be trying to put up 180 pax and 6 crew in hotel beds...that weren't available"
This is BS too.

SVO, DME and VKO all have special accomodation available* as well as all the main MSK RLY terminals for precisely this contingency.
SVO is now a modern place.
*Applies to LED also btw, so no excuses possible.
In a country with 11 time zones, & 1000s of nuclear weapons would you expect otherwise...
talking of which....
