Name

Domodedovskaya is named after Domodedovo International Airport, which is located some to the south of the station along the Kashirskoye Highway.
On March 29, 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic in Russia, the management of the Moscow Metro temporarily renamed the station to "DomaDedovskaya" which refer to "Grandfather at home" to remind the citizen of Moscow to stay their elderly parents at home.

It located at the intersection of Kashirskoye Highway and Orekhovy Boulevard. There are also exits to General Belov street.

Connection

There is a regular shuttle bus service from the station to Domodedovo, as Domodedovskaya provides the fastest ground access to the airport.

Building

The station was designed by architects Nina A. Aleshina and N. Samoylova. Like many other stations built in the 1970s and 1980s, Domodedovskaya has a decorative theme related to the local surroundings. Appropriately enough, the theme here is aviation. The pillars are faced with white marble with inlays of darker marble, and the walls are decorated with plaques depicting Soviet aircraft.
