Flight search parameters (step 1)

We have selected the most necessary parameters in a separate form that is most easily accessible on the main page of the site. When filling out the search form, please pay attention to the features of each field:
"Where From" / " Where To»
After entering the first letter of the city name, you will see a drop — down list of suitable cities-this is a complete list of available cities in the directory of our system, where we can search for flights. If the city you are interested in is not in the list, please let our support service know. we will either tell you the nearest airport, or add the missing city to our database over time.


"Date of departure there" / "Date of departure back"

Self-booking flights on the website Skyexpress.ru it is possible up to 4 hours before check-in for the flight you want to fly.
The date of departure back must be later than the date of departure there. If you want to fly out and return on the same day but do not find flights convenient by
if your flight is scheduled for departure, then book flights one way at a time — for example, first "there" and then "back".

"Number of passengers"

The maximum number of passengers (regardless of the composition) for a single order is 6 people, among which there must be one "adult".
"Adults" — any passenger who has reached the age of 12 is considered an adult. On Skyexpress.ru there is no provision for selling air tickets to preferential categories of passengers (for example, "young People"), but practice shows that a pre-purchased air ticket is almost always cheaper than air tickets at reduced fares.
"Children 2-11" - young passengers in this category can not travel without an adult, but they already need a separate seat on the plane. The cost of flights for passengers in this category usually ranges from 25 to 75% of the adult fare.
"Baby up to 2 years old without a seat" - babies can fly on their parents ' laps. One adult can only carry one child on their lap. In most cases, air carriers carry babies for free or for 10% of the adult fare.
"Baby up to 2 years old with a seat" - if suddenly there are more kids than parents, you need to buy a ticket with a separate seat. In this case, the cost of the flight will be calculated according to the children's (2-11 years) fare. We also recommend buying a separate seat for children on long-distance flights (more than 4 hours) — this will make it easier for both you and the child.


"Class"

On Skyexpress.ru you can buy tickets of three classes of service — "economy", "business" or "first". The possibility of providing upgraded services depends including the layout and equipment of the aircraft, running the flight, so on some routes and flight classes "business" and "first" may not be.
After performing the search, you can use various filters that will allow you to choose the right ticket for You:
"Free baggage"
You can filter flights that already include the cost of baggage or flights that do not include baggage.
"Departure airport"
If there are several airports in the departure city, you can choose the airport that suits you best.
«Time of departure»
On our website there are three time periods — "the night", "morning", "day".
The time is specified locally relative to the departure point, i.e. if you are looking for morning flights from Vladivostok to Moscow, the "morning" parameter will be taken into account according to local Vladivostok time (i.e. 7 hours more than in Moscow).
If you are looking for flights to a popular destination where there are many daily flights at any time of the day, limiting the search results by departure time will allow you to limit the number of flight options to the desired time interval (although this feature is also implemented in the next step in the form of a filter by departure time). However, if the destination is not very popular, you may not see the only possible departure option in the evening if you are only looking for morning flights. Therefore, we recommend that you fill in this field only if you want to leave and return on the same day.
