The ticket is in Economy on the KUF-DME leg and then in Business on the DME-VRN leg, all issued on one ticket. How will it work with lounge access?
S7 is a bit funny with lounge access, and many Business fares (Basic without luggage) as well as online upgrades do not include lounge access. I don't know how they police that, except that there must be something obvious written on the BP. But how will it work with a British Airways issued award ticket? I am expecting no lounge access in KUF, with lounge access granted in DME before the flight to Verona.
No lounge access in KUF unfortunately. S7 does have mixed cabin fares for those situations, where the lounge access &priority boarding e.t.c are available at the transit airport before the flight on a full Y flight.
How do they police it? You may have noticed some weird notes printed under the barcode on the BP.
LNG YES or LNG NO (for J tickets only and Sapphire/Emerald cards override this)
BAG NO or BAG 1PCS 23KG ( or whatever your ticketed allowance is)
SNR NO or SNR YES shows as to whether you are entitled to complimentary seat selection (any elite OW status overrides this).
