Visa and
Flight Information:
Visa: To get a visa
(required for Americans), we will provide you with the required tourist
confirmation, voucher, and cover letter as soon as they are available. When you
receive them, immediately apply for your visa. For information and
application, go to http://www.russianembassy.org/CONSULAT/TOUR-VIS.HTM if you
wish to apply directly, or you can use a commercial visa agency, such as www.gotorussia.com
Flight: We
recommend that you make reservations but do not purchase your tickets
until you have your visa in your possession. If you are flying east from the
US, you will lose a day to time zones.
It is our
understanding that S7 Airlines will have a non-stop flight from Frankfurt to Novosibirsk this summer, but the schedules are not yet
posted (as 01/06). If you do have to stop in Moscow, we strongly recommend that
you fly on an airline that takes you to Domodedovo
Airport, from which you will be able to fly directly on to Novosibirsk;
if you must fly into Sheremetovo 2, you should fly to Novosibirsk on Aeroflot, which leaves from
Sheremetovo 1. There is a free shuttle bus between the two airports.
Be sure allow time between flights to get through Customs.
