Well, let me just provide my costs in $:
1 bedroom nice apartment in the center of the center - 17$ per night.
Taxis- 100-200 ruble short distance up to 3km - 1.5-3$. Bus/ tram - 0.3$
Local draft beer in a bar- 1-1.5$, and they are not bad.
cocktails ~200 ruble (3$)
Middle-Upper class restaurant, 3 course meal - 15-20$
Low class/ fast food, 1 dish + drink - 5-8$
Espresso - 1$
Organized group trip tour out of the city for 6 hours - 15$.
For me it is quite cheap.
So you mean that it's quite cheap in general, but not particularly due to the Rouble crisis?

NYC - Moscow - NYC for $300?! Does that include taxes? I pay more than that from Europe. That's an incredible price.
That probably doesn't include taxes, but it's cheaper than it was last year (around $400 from memory). Moscow-NA has always been very cheap due to the volume and competition on the Moscow to NYC leg.

Who the hell wants to go to Moscow in Jan/Feb? Screw that.
Yes, that's why the prices are very 'seasonal.'
