Pulkovo Airside Facilities / Arriving to Russia Before Visa Becomes Valid
Long story short, I miscalculated something and now I have tickets to Russia that will get me there 5 hours before my wife’s and daughter’s visa becomes valid. It’s a 3-year multiple tourist visa, if it makes a difference. So… any chance the Russians let us in? And if they don’t, what is there to do airside in Pulkovo International? I flew through it several times but can’t recall much, because I used to have access to lounges. Now I don’t. Suggestions? Oh, I don’t want to change tickets either.
