Recent Traveller Feedback
Flew Pobeda from Moscow to Saint Petersburg with the Basic fare. I brought a small rolling suitcase thinking it would fit, but at the gate they made me measure it and it was too big for the 36 x 30 x 27 cm sizer. I had to pay 5000 rubles at the gate to check it in. Next time I will stick to a small backpack only or pay for the XL hand baggage in advance.
5000 RUB
Booked the Maximum fare for my flight from Moscow to Sochi and checked one suitcase weighing 19 kg. The check-in was quick and there were no extra charges. The 203 cm linear size limit is more generous than most airlines so my larger duffel bag fit without any problem.
On my Pobeda flight to Istanbul I paid extra for the Hand Baggage XL service. It let me bring a proper 55 x 40 x 25 cm carry-on roller bag in the overhead bin. For 40 euros online it was worth it because I did not want to wait at baggage claim. They checked the size at boarding but it passed easily.
