Flying S7 on avios redemption
Hi guys, I am travelling on S7 this September for the first time. I redeemed using BA avios and travelling between Moscow and St. Petersburg. I have a few questions...
1) S7 pre-assigned a seat for me (2C) but I would like to change it. Is it possible? I cannot find it under MMB in S7 page.
2) How much luggage can I check in? In the webpage it said 1 bag but 0 bag in the app. And I am a BA silver.
3) Which is the best lounge in DME? (Have priority pass or OW lounges)
4) Any meal inflight?
And about DME airport
1) How long does it takes for the immigration and custom? I have around 2 hours between an international arrival to the S7 service to St. Petersburg.
2) How far is it from international arrivals to domestic check in terminal?
Thank you.

2) One bag should come with an award ticket. OWS (assuming BA) does not have alliance wide luggage benefits
3) The S7 lounge.
4) A sandwich
Airport
1) It can depend a lot on time of day, and what flights arrive before you. Sometimes I am through immigration without waiting, other times it easily takes 30+ minutes. I would put more than two hours as it sounds like you are on separate tickets.
2) Few minutes walk

1) You will need to contact the, call or email. I am not sure if OWS is enough for the premium email service.

Send them your booking reference and the required seat number(s) and flight number(s). They typically reply within a few hours.
Just to repeat what I mentioned above: you may also request the Extra Space seats (in bulkhead/emergency exit rows) for free as OWR/OWS/OWE.

But they did not answer me about the luggage. I will write them again, thanks.
