Pobeda Airlines will charge money for check-in for flights from foreign airports starting October 28, 2018. The cost of this service at airports in other countries will be 25 euros.
The check-in service at Russian airports will remain free. To avoid paying for this service at foreign airports, the airline recommends that passengers register online for free.
On the official website of Pobeda Airlines, in the “Online check-in” section, you need to select “Have a reservation code” or “No reservation code.” Next, enter the data: reservation code, email address specified when booking air tickets (or air ticket number), or flight route, departure date, full name and passport details of the passenger. Click the Search button. Next, check in for your flight and receive your boarding pass.
Online check-in is available when departing from Moscow Vnukovo Airport. You can check in and drop off your luggage in Terminal A of Vnukovo Airport at check-in counters No. 139-140.
You can register online on the official website of Pobeda Airlines or in the Pobeda mobile application App Store and Google Play.
At online registration the passenger can use additional paid services of Pobeda at the same price as when purchasing air tickets. If you pay for additional services at the airport, the tariff will be significantly higher.
Pobeda Airlines aircraft
The Pobeda airline fleet consists of 19 modern Boeing 737-800. The aircraft are produced specifically to order from the airline; their average age is 2.5 years. Sky Interior salons are equipped with leather chairs and can change lighting modes.
The cabin layout is shown at the booking stage to select seats. The seats do not recline, which is a plus for some and a minus for others. There is enough legroom, you can pay for more space (XL seats).
If you have not paid for the seat selection service, you will be seated in different parts of the plane (except for passengers with children). Automatic free assignment of seats in different parts of the plane is an obvious disadvantage of Pobeda Airlines. It is clear that this is being done to ensure that passengers pay for the seat selection service, but other airlines seat people from the same reservation together, albeit in bad seats.
It is forbidden to change planes on board; flight attendants monitor this. Sometimes you can still change seats if you don’t attract attention - don’t rush to take your seats, wait until everyone is seated. All our flights departed and arrived on schedule. Passengers are asked not to delay at the gate and their luggage is quickly issued - saving time on service at the airport.
During the flight, Pobeda Airlines does not provide food or drinks, and, unlike other low-cost airlines, does not sell anything. You can take food with you, as long as it fits in the calibrator along with other items hand luggage. Carefully read the rules of carriage of Pobeda Airlines, pay in advance for the required amount of luggage, the choice of seats, measure your hand luggage, and then the advantages of flying with a low-cost airline will outweigh the disadvantages.
Check-in at the airport counter
Check-in at the airport opens 2 hours before departure, we ask you to plan your time and arrive in advance. In addition, we ask you to carefully read the baggage rules.
Check-in at the counter opens 2 hours (at Vnukovo airport - 3 hours) and ends 40 minutes before departure. Airports in individual countries may have special requirements for check-in deadlines. In this case, the registration end time is indicated in the itinerary receipt.
Check-in at the airport begins no later than 2 hours and ends 40 minutes before flight departure time, with the exception of departures from Istanbul. Check-in at Istanbul Airport ( international Airport named after Ataturk) ends 60 minutes before the flight departure time. Boarding ends 25 minutes before flight departure time. A passenger who is late for check-in or boarding will not be allowed to fly.
To check-in, the passenger must be personally present at the airport, present at the counter the document for which the ticket was issued when booking, and check in the luggage.
Additional Information:

- Before leaving for the airport, make sure that your luggage complies with the baggage rules of Pobeda Airlines. Order additional baggage on the website no later than 4 hours before departure, using the “Personal Account” or “Manage Booking” services, as well as through the airline’s call center.
Who can check in online for a Pobeda flight?
Since Pobeda is one of the youngest airlines in Russia, the online check-in function is not yet available to everyone. There are certain conditions.
- On this moment Online check-in for a flight is available only to passengers flying from Moscow from Vnukovo Airport.
- The air ticket must be booked and purchased through the official website of Pobeda Airlines.
- The online check-in function is available only for passengers who have selected seats on the plane (selecting seats is a paid service, and without purchasing it you cannot check-in for a flight via the Internet remotely). Seats can be selected when making a reservation, or later by calling the customer contact center. This is due to the fact that if you refused the seat selection service, then the seats are allocated automatically when you check in for your flight at the airport counter.

You know, I am completely devoid of various prejudices associated with the activities of Pobeda. As a rule, most complaints against Pobeda are related to simple inattention and lack of desire to understand and follow the airline’s rules. However, when I came face to face with some aspects of this very activity, I was a little puzzled. Let's talk about such a seemingly trivial procedure as check-in for the Pobeda flight.
Who can check in online for the Pobeda flight?
And let's start by trying to understand - and Who can register at all? Trying to find an answer to this question led me to some confusion. The fact is that despite the fact that the Pobeda airline has existed on the Russian market for more than 3 years, they still simply NO POSSIBILITY check in for your flight online if you are not flying from Vnukovo! But this is a huge number of airline customers, for whose convenience a huge horseradish was put. And among these, crushed by horseradish, I found myself, because... I was about to take off from Krasnoyarsk Emelyanovo airport. Not cool, Pobeda, not cool at all.
Let's record it again: online check-in for the Pobeda flight is available only to those flying from Vnukovo!
But what if you happen to be the lucky one who is flying out of Vnukovo, which means you can check in for the Pobeda flight online? What to do in this case, where to run? Nowhere yet, because first you need to check whether the ticket you purchased meets the requirements of Pobeda Airlines.
Electronic registration with Pobeda is available if you:
0) You are not gay, a feminist or a black man and confidently throw a zig. - recently canceled
1) Departure from Vnukovo.
2) Bought a ticket on the official website of Pobeda, which is located at https://www.pobeda.aero. If you are used to using metasearch engines (or better yet, use them), for example Aviasales, then the main thing is, after you find the Pobeda ticket you need, go from Aviasales to the Pobeda website. Then everything will be 100% fine.
Why is it better to use metasearch engines? ala Aviasales? Well, in my life I have seen few people who purposefully look for tickets from Pobeda, because they are ardent fans of the airline. As a rule, a person just needs the most cheap ticket By given direction, and Pobeda’s fares are not always the best, especially with all the extra fees for luggage. Therefore, it is better to use the same Aviasales, which searches for tickets for all airlines and ticket offices at once and buy a ticket at the truly lowest price.
The main thing, as I already said, is to switch from Aviasales to the Pobeda website, and not some air ticket office.
3) Formally, online registration of Victory tickets is free. However...it is available only to those who, at the stage of purchasing air tickets, paid for the option to choose a seat in the cabin. Yeah, that's how it is, guys.
Victory seems to hint to all the penny-pinchers:
In general, if you are sure in advance that you will need online registration on the Pobeda website, do not forget to choose your seat for an additional fee during the ticket purchase process. It looks like this:
How does online check-in for a Pobeda flight take place?
As I mentioned above, in order for registration to become available, you must first use the paid option to select a seat in the cabin. If you have done this, then the next steps will look like this:

What to do after online registration?
Yes, in general, whatever your heart desires - spin the spinner, dance a jig, throw nasvay, take a bath made of chips...something carried me away. In general, at your discretion, the main thing do not forget that:
- Check-in closes 25 minutes before departure - don't be late
- Baggage must be checked in at the baggage claim counter (Terminal A, counters No. 139 and No. 140) 40 minutes before departure.
