The situation with booking air tickets to lately changed in better side. If previously you had to go somewhere and stand in queues, now you can order a ticket without leaving your home via the Internet. Moreover, you can choose suitable place in the salon. But we will tell you how to do this in our article.

Booking procedure

In order to book a seat on an air flight, we will need a computer and the Internet. Next we do the following:

We choose a suitable airline.
Convenient flight time.
It is preferable to go to the website of the selected airline. You can, however, order a ticket from an intermediary, but it is a little more expensive and will take longer.
We choose a convenient place and issue an electronic ticket. It is equipped with a special PIN code for registration.
, but the electronic version is also acceptable.
We arrive at the airport and check in.

This is briefly the procedure for our actions when registering via the Internet. Below we will consider them in more detail and give step by step instructions. And we'll start it with electronic ticket. What is it?

Electronic ticket

At its core, it is a kind of digital record that is entered into the airline’s database and serves to replace regular paper air tickets. Officially speaking, this is an agreement between a citizen and an air carrier, or rather a document that certifies a completed transaction for the provision of a service. Another name for an electronic ticket is e-ticket.

You can see what an e-ticket looks like in the picture below.

Video – E-ticket

Let's decipher some positions that may appear on the ticket.

Direction (in the international layout - From/To). Above (in Latin) – from where. Below it - where. In the case where several airports are indicated, the encoding (letter) is used. Which one you can find out at the airline agency where you book your tickets or at the airport.

Count — "Stopover" If you have a layover between flights lasting more than a day (over 24 hours), then this field remains empty. The allowed mark is the O sign. This means yes. If the stop is less than a day, then an X is placed, which means no. By the way, in the latter case, the ticket price is reduced because the amount of fees charged by the airport for transit flights is reduced.

Carrier. The selected airline is indicated. A two letter code is used for this. It is assigned by only one organization - International Association Air transport.

The ticket then indicates your comfort level. This field is called the booking class (Class).

Three main levels:

Each of them is in turn divided into categories.

The first class is divided into:

The most expensive is P.
First class – F.
First class, but with a discount - A.

Economy class: K, S with fixed tariffs, Y – with a discount.

This form of ticket ordering and registration has a number of advantages over the usual procedure:

But there are two points. which must be taken into account when ordering air tickets.

Video - Example of choosing a seat on an airplane

Flight cancellation

A passenger can refuse a flight either voluntarily or due to a situation with the carrier, i.e. forcibly.

In the latter case, refusal is possible if:

Flight cancelled.
The flight is delayed for certain time.
The conditions stated by the carrier cannot be provided.
The route has been changed.
The passenger or his relatives have health problems.
The declared route has been cancelled.

In these cases, you can expect that the money spent on tickets will be returned, and the full cost.

The passenger fills out a refund application using a specially designed form. Attached to it is the itinerary receipt and a copy of the passport.

Important! If a passenger cancels a flight for a reason not stated above, then expect a refund cash in this case it's not worth it.

For many years now, Aeroflot has proudly held the title of No. 1 air carrier in Russia. It always cares about the comfort of its passengers and provides a varied range of services, one of the most popular is online check-in for Aeroflot flights. The most convenient way to do this is by using your ticket number, which saves time and eliminates the need to stand in line.

When a tourist buys a ticket on the Internet and pays for it, he receives an itinerary receipt in the mail, which contains. This is what should be entered into the system in order to register online for Aeroflot using an electronic ticket. However, some passengers, registering in this way for the first time, do not know how to do it correctly.

How to check in for an Aeroflot flight using an electronic ticket

Carefully study the receipt and find the phrase there - booking reference, next to it there will be a six-digit code. It consists of the names of letters or numbers. They should be entered on the official Aeroflot website. In addition to the booking reference, phrases can be indicated - booking code, or reservation code.

To check in for an Aeroflot flight online using your ticket number, go to the section http://www.aeroflot.ru/ru-ru/information/checkin/web_checkin#gtoc2 and scroll to the bottom of the page, then check the box and confirm the conditions, after which the system will transfer to the route search section. Enter the code and your last name in Latin letters.

You should not worry about the accuracy of the information entered, because if something is written incorrectly, the system simply will not let the user through.

If everything is indicated correctly, the tourist will see a diagram of the interior and will be able to. Having made a choice, the passenger is provided with an individual boarding pass, which must be saved and printed. With it you can go to the airport and approach the landing zone itself.

The tourist does not need to stand in line for registration, but, like everyone else, he is required to check in his luggage and go through scanners, and for international flights he must also go through customs control. If a person did not have time to print out the coupon or lost it, then he can do this in special machines installed right at the airport, or contact the check-in desk staff.

The client has the opportunity to change seats if he logs in again and enters the reservation code, a new boarding pass is also printed.

Features of online check-in for Aeroflot flights

Electronic check-in for a flight becomes available one day before departure and closes 45 minutes before departure. If you do not have luggage that needs to be checked separately, but only hand luggage, then in this case you can arrive 20 minutes before the aircraft’s departure. However, keep in mind that these are deadlines, and it is better to come so as not to become a hostage to circumstances.

You can check in for a plane under the Aeroflot-Shuttle program no later than 30 minutes before the flight departure. Also, online registration closes 30 minutes before for residents of St. Petersburg.

Online check-in for Aeroflot with an electronic ticket does not imply the possibility of ordering special meals, since its preparation requires at least 36 hours. This must be done in advance when purchasing a ticket, you can also go to personal account, or call the airline's contact numbers.

If a tourist wants to check in online using a ticket number for an Aeroflot flight, then it does not matter which airport the flight is departing from - Vnukovo, Domodedovo or Sheremetyevo. The service is available not only for Aeroflot flights, but also for airplanes and Aurora.

Online registration is not possible for:

charter flights of the Russia company, the ticket number has the numbers 195;
joint flights where Aeroflot is not the main carrier;
routes when departure is from Saratov, Stavropol, Dushanbe, Karaganda, Novy Urengoy, Syktyvkar, Tehran, Aktau, Beirut, Murmansk, Male, Varna and a number of other cities.

Pros and cons of online check-in for Aeroflot flights

The main advantage of registering online is convenience and time saving. You can undergo the procedure from anywhere if you have access to a computer. The tourist gets the opportunity to independently choose the seats he likes from the available ones, as well as arrive later and not stand in line to check in.

The only disadvantage of this procedure is that it is not available to all passengers. These categories include:

tourists traveling with animals;
citizens transporting weapons or luggage in the cabin;
special categories of passengers - seriously ill people, disabled people with serious health limitations, unaccompanied children.

Mobile check-in

Registration on the Internet is becoming more popular every year and greatly simplifies the life of travelers.

I always try to make my life as comfortable as possible. I have to spend a lot of time on planes, so I always choose the right seat carefully. This guarantees my comfort during the flight. It is better to book it in advance, so that later you do not have to sit at the emergency exit, where even the back of the chair does not recline. I'll tell you how to do it.

How to book seats on a plane

There are several options that will allow you to book the seat you need. It's possible:

during check-in for your flight;
when purchasing a ticket;
using online registration.

The most common is the first option. To do this, you need to arrive at the airport in advance to be among the first at the check-in counter. You can ask a staff member which seats are still available. You will be offered several options at once, and all you have to do is choose the most suitable one. Don't hesitate to ask for the exact seat you want. There is nothing wrong with this. I've done this many times already. This method is bad because you may not have the placement options you need.

When you buy a ticket on the company’s official website, you will be able to see a diagram of the aircraft’s cabin, where you can see the empty seats. The earlier you buy your ticket, the more choice you will have. There are unpleasant situations that are associated with this method. You may be required to pay for the seat you require. This is an exception to the rule, but it happens sometimes.

The most convenient way

Online registration is very popular. I immediately appreciated all its advantages. You can find special counters that are located at the airport, or you can make it even easier. Visit the airline's website to book your seat from the comfort of your home.

Now you don't have to come to the airport in advance to check in. This is great, because you already have to sit waiting for departure long time. Don't forget to print your boarding pass. They don’t always ask for it from me, but it’s better to take it with you to avoid unpleasant situations. If you are afraid of losing it, you can download it to your phone. There he will definitely be safe and sound.

FlightsBooking a seat on an airplane using an electronic ticket

Booking a seat on an airplane using an electronic ticket

An electronic ticket is a mark in the airline’s database about your flight with all its options, your personal data and payment. This entry contains your passport details, flight number, date, fare, fare conditions. Purchasing an electronic document has many advantages, and one of them is the ability to book a seat on a plane using an electronic ticket.

How to book a seat on a plane?

Selecting a seat when purchasing a ticket becomes available if you purchase a flexible, optimal or business class fare. The more expensive the tariff, the more preferential the terms of service, including free seat selection. Airlines generally do not provide this service when purchasing a cheap budget fare. IN best case scenario You can choose your seat for a fee.

So, we book a flight with a choice of seat:

you have chosen the destination, air carrier, fare and filled in the passenger data;
before payment, you go to the booking page, where you are offered a diagram of the aircraft cabin with free seats marked;
in this diagram you choose the places that suit you. The data is entered into the airline's database;
you make payment in accordance with the selected options.

Please note that the seat selection service is generally only available when purchasing tickets on the airline website. Many agents do not allow you to choose your seats when booking. But if you write down your wishes regarding your seat on the plane in the booking notes, which can be made in a special window, the agent can take this information into account and fulfill your wishes when issuing your ticket.

Reservation of a seat during online registration

Your ticket will indicate whether you have the option to select your seat when checking in online or not. If there is such an opportunity, then it is indicated whether the choice is paid or free.

For most airlines, online check-in opens 24 hours before departure and closes 45-60 minutes before departure. Your procedure:

you receive an SMS message and a letter by email that online check-in for your flight begins at a certain time;
you should go to the website of the airline whose ticket you purchased, enter the reservation code and your last name on the website;
check the passenger's details, select a seat on the plane's cabin map. The sooner you register online, the better your chances of choosing the right place, because... towards the end of registration, convenient seats run out;
print your boarding pass. With this paper boarding pass, you arrive at the airport at least 30 minutes before departure and go straight to passport control.

Book air tickets on the ART-service company website

When booking on our website, you have the opportunity to select an airline and fare type with a choice of seat on the plane at check-in (paid or free).

Booking and issuing electronic tickets on our website fully complies with the airline's rules.

To fly by plane, one air ticket is not enough. You still need to register. This is how it is, these are the rules.

Online check-in is possible if you have previously purchased a ticket on the Aeroflot website.

Many air passengers check in directly at the airport immediately before departure, for which they arrive at the airport in advance. To check in at the airport, the passenger must have with him the passport with which he purchased the air ticket.

Holders of air tickets for some airlines can check in without coming to the airport, but in advance using a computer and the Internet. Aeroflot passengers have this opportunity - go to the Aeroflot website, and Online check-in is at your service.

Important points

You can check in for your flight:

online using a computer and the Internet, while you can NOT register on the Aeroflot website (a personal account is NOT required),

or at the airport along with other passengers on Aeroflot flights on a first-come, first-served basis.

If you are on the Aeroflot website (aeroflot.ru), then it is convenient to go through Online registration there. By the way, the terms “online registration” and “electronic registration” mean the same thing.

On the Aeroflot website you can check in online, select seats in the cabin, print out your boarding pass and, if you don’t have luggage, use this pass to immediately go to passport and customs control for foreign flights, to pre-flight control and to boarding for foreign and domestic flights.

If you have baggage, in addition to electronic check-in, you also need to go through regular check-in, but at special check-in counters (if they exist at the airport), which are called Drop-box. In the absence of such special check-in counters and if the passenger has luggage, you will still have to go to regular check-in along with the other passengers, alas.

On the Aeroflot website, online check-in can be done one day (that is, 24 hours) before departure. For example, if the flight is on August 2 at 8.20 am, then you can check in on the morning of August 1, starting at 8.20.

Regular check-in at the airport for an Aeroflot flight can be completed within the time limits specified by Aeroflot. This can be either 2 hours before the flight departure, or 6 hours, or even 24 hours, if, of course, the passenger is interested in being at the departure airport for more than 20 hours after checking in.

1 Aeroflot website Online check-in

So, we bought a ticket on the Aeroflot website and printed it out. To complete Online check-in, go to the main page of the website (aeroflot.ru) one day before the plane’s departure:

Rice. 1 On home page On the official Aeroflot website we find a link to Online check-in

Click on the link “Online services” (number 1 in Fig. 1),
in the menu that appears, click on the “Online registration” option (number 2 in Fig. 1).

2 We agree to the terms of Online registration

The “Online registration” window will open (Fig. 2):

Rice. 2 Read the terms and conditions of online registration and check the box that you agree with them

The Online Registration page is very long (see Figure 2 for a shortened version). This page has many links to useful information there is a FAQ (frequently asked questions) for online check-in, for baggage transportation.

There is a quote from Aeroflot on this page (Fig. 2):

"Attention!
A paper boarding pass is required to proceed to the boarding gate. If you were unable to print your boarding pass at home, you can print your boarding pass at the self-check-in kiosks at the airport.”

This good advice from Aeroflot, but under one condition: if you are “in your native land,” where everything is in Russian and, as you know, your native walls help at home.

But what about in other conditions, when you don’t know the language, but you have to fly? You can go up to check-in (alas, on a first-come, first-served basis), show it on your phone, tablet, or otherwise explain that there is Online check-in, but there is no “print,” that is, there is no printout of the boarding pass. If mutual understanding is reached with the airport employee at the check-in counter, it will be printed out for you immediately without any problems with the seats and parameters that you booked during Online check-in.

At the end of the page (Fig. 2, number 1), click in the box opposite the inscription “Confirm that you have read and agree to the terms of online registration” so that a checkmark appears.

After the checkmark appears, a miracle will happen: the “Continue” button (number 2 in Fig. 2) will transform into a joyful orange color and become clickable. This means we are on our way there: click on the “Continue” button and get to the start of the Online Passenger Registration procedure.

3 Enter the reservation code and passenger's last name for Online check-in

Rice. 3 Enter the reservation code and last name or Start the passenger check-in procedure

The reservation code (number 1 in Fig. 3) is issued on the Aeroflot website when booking (purchasing) an air ticket. You can immediately write it down in your notebook (cheap, reliable and practical) after purchasing an air ticket.

The Aeroflot code consists ONLY of Latin (English) letters, for example, FFHIWH.

You can also print out your air ticket, then you can easily find the booking code in the printout in the upper right corner. Also, when ordering a flight ticket, the reservation code comes to you:

via SMS to mobile phone(if the phone number was specified correctly when booking),

by e-mail (don't forget to check your Spam folder if there is no letter from Aeroflot in your Inbox).

3.1 How can I find out the reservation code if the ticket was purchased through an intermediary?

If you bought a ticket for an Aeroflot flight through intermediaries, for example, through the Tutu service, then you most likely have in your hands the order number on this service, which includes not only Latin letters, but also numbers.

In this case, the code for online booking on the Aeroflot website can be obtained directly from this intermediary. You can contact the intermediary, for example, by phone and use your order number to find out the reservation code for online registration on the Aeroflot website.

If you have a booking code, you can check in online on the Aeroflot website without any problems.

Enter on the website page “Online registration” (Fig. 3):

Reservation code (number 1 in Fig. 3),

surname (in Latin letters) of the passenger who purchased (booked) air tickets for the registered flight - number 2 in Fig. 3.

Like the booking code, it is also a good idea to write down the passenger’s last name in a notebook after booking (purchasing) an electronic ticket. Let's imagine that the buyer had the surname Generation Blue Sea Passing. How will it look when written in Latin letters? Can you reproduce your surname in Latin twice at different times, and so that the two spellings do not differ from each other? This is why it is better to write down your last name in Latin in a notebook along with the reservation code.

The gray “Search” button (number 3 in Fig. 3) will become bright after filling out fields 1 and 2 in Fig. 3, click on it. Now Aeroflot starts searching for an air ticket with the entered data in its database.

4 What you should not take with you

While Aeroflot is looking for our ticket in the database so that we don’t get bored, it takes us to the page “Dangerous substances and items prohibited for transportation.” This list includes:

Magnetized substances
Toxic, poisonous and poisonous substances
Flammable solids
Compressed and liquefied gases
Toxic substances
Explosives and weapons
Flammable liquids
Radioactive materials
Oxidizing agents and organic peroxides
Caustic and corrosive substances

and a quote from the site about liquids:

Containers larger than 100 ml are not accepted for transportation, even if the container is only partially filled. An exception to transportation is for medicines, baby food and special dietary needs.

We get acquainted with the above list and click on the “Continue registration” button.

5 Selecting passengers for Online check-in

Opens next page Online check-in – “Passenger selection” (Fig. 4):

Rice. 4 Selecting passengers for online check-in

We check the names and surnames of passengers (now we are checking, not entering, since Aeroflot stores in its database the full names of passengers who were indicated when booking and purchasing air tickets),
put a check mark (numbers 1 and 2 in Fig. 4), or you can put a check mark next to the inscription “select all passengers ready for check-in (and the number of such passengers is indicated in brackets, in this case there are two of them, as shown in Fig. 4)” ,

Click on the “Select seat” button for the first passenger (number 3 in Fig. 4). Of course, those who like to do everything the other way around can start choosing a seat for the second passenger, so to speak, from the end. But it’s still better, so as not to get confused later, to choose seats for passengers in the order of their numbering. First for the first, then for the second, ... and so on.

6 Choosing seats on the plane

Then you are given the opportunity to choose a seat in the aircraft cabin for the first passenger:

Rice. 5 Selecting a seat for the first passenger to check in

On the presented diagram of seats on the plane, select an empty seat (number 1 in Fig. 5), click on the “Save” button (number 2 in Fig. 5). If something went wrong when choosing a seat for a passenger, then click on the “Return to the beginning of registration” button (number 3 in Fig. 5).

I would like to draw your attention to the fact that the diagram of the aircraft, on which you can select a seat for the passenger, looks much larger on the computer screen than in Figure 5. On the computer screen you can see the entire aircraft, all the rows of seats, you can see where the wing of the aircraft is located (for those , who likes or, on the contrary, does not like to “sit on the wing”), etc. In Fig. 5 is shown only small piece pictures of the plane, just to save space so that the picture is not larger in size than the entire article about Online check-in on the Aeroflot website.

Similarly, we select a seat on the plane for the second passenger. As a result, we receive confirmation of the choice of seats on the plane (Fig. 6):

Rice. 6 Completing the selection of seats for checked-in passengers

7 The treasured “Registration” button

The seats on the plane have been selected, and we are reaching the finish line: click on the “Registration” button (Fig. 7). Actually, for the sake of pressing this button, everything that was written above was done.

Rice. 7 Clicking on the “Registration” button on the Aeroflot website is Online Registration

8 Aeroflot gives the go-ahead for Online check-in

By clicking on the “Registration” button, we go to the “Online registration” page, on which we find confirmation of passenger registration (Fig. 8):

Rice. 8 Receiving confirmation of passenger registration

That's it, the passengers are registered, they will now be allowed on the plane to board. True, they will be allowed in if passengers have boarding passes in their hands, which will be discussed below.

By the way, in Fig. 8 pay attention to buttons 2 and 4 – “Change location”. If necessary, you can change seats for passengers after Online check-in. We do this in the same way as shown above in Fig. 5.

9 The essence of completed Online check-in is that passengers have boarding passes

If there is a printer near the computer, then immediately print boarding passes by pressing the buttons marked 1 and 3 in Fig. 8, or number 6 in the same figure. 8.

If you don’t have a printer at hand, or even if you do have a printer, just in case (“just in case”:) or “just in case”), we send ourselves a boarding pass by e-mail. Then we’ll go to our email, download the boarding pass there, write it to a flash drive, or in some other way make sure that at the first opportunity we can print out the pass on a printer that comes to hand.

By clicking on the “boarding pass by e-mail” button (number 5 in Fig. 8), we get a drop-down dialog box “Send boarding pass by e-mail” (Fig. 9):

Rice. 9 Enter your e-mail so that Aeroflot sends your boarding pass to it

The “All passengers” field, marked with number 1 in Fig. 9, we leave it unchanged, because it is convenient to receive by e-mail one file with boarding passes for all registered passengers.

In the “Email address” field, marked with number 2 in Fig. 9, enter (without errors!) your email address. You can enter additional characters in this field, separated by commas. email addresses. This is just in case the letter from Aeroflot reaches you for sure. Unfortunately, the spam filters of Yandex, Mail RU, Google and other email services have become much stricter, so emails may not always reach their recipients for various reasons.

From my own experience, I know that, for example, I was surprised to find official letters from Mail ru and Yandex in the Spam folder a couple of times. If you have a habit of quickly scanning Spam for important letters that “accidentally” got there, then it’s okay, the letter from Aeroflot can be found in the Spam folder.

The “Send” button (number 3 in Fig. 9) will turn from gray, inactive, to orange, active immediately after the email you entered is “liked” by Aeroflot in the sense that the email undergoes a preliminary automatic check on the site for functionality. For example, when entering an address in the form: Nadezda @ yandex, the “Send” button will remain gray because you must enter it correctly: [email protected](no spaces before or after the dog, and there should be “.ru” at the end).

Once the "Send" button (that is, send information about the mailbox name) becomes orange color, click on it and receive the message “Boarding passes have been sent for all passengers” (Fig. 10):

Rice. 10 Receive confirmation of sending the file with planting files by email to the specified email

10 How to open a boarding pass received by email

Now let's go to our mailbox and look for letters from Aeroflot there. For example, in my mail I found 2 letters from Aeroflot OJSC, sent with an interval of 2 minutes:

1st letter – with the heading “Payment for MXTYXL booking on the website of the airline OJSC Aeroflot”,

2nd letter - with the heading “Information about booking MXTYXL on the website of the airline OJSC Aeroflot.”

As you probably already guessed, the title of the letter contains a combination of Latin capital letters“MXTYXL” is not random and is an airline ticket booking code.

Having opened the letter from Aeroflot, we find the file attached to the letter in pdf format. First of all, save it to your computer. To do this, click on the attached file with the RIGHT mouse button, and in the context menu that appears, click on the “Save As” link. Next, save this file on your computer, for example, on your Desktop.

All that's left is to open it pdf file. Just click on the file and it will open.

If this does not happen, your computer probably does not have a program for reading pdf files, such as Adobe Reader, more details

If “it’s not clear what” is revealed, it means operating system I opened the file with the wrong program.

In any case, you need to find out if you have a “normal” program on your PC to open a pdf file as follows:

Rice. 11 We saved the file with boarding passes from Aeroflot’s letter on our PC, now open it.

Click on the file with the RIGHT mouse button (number 1 in Fig. 11).
In the context menu that appears, left-click on the “Open with” link (number 2 in Fig. 11).

Another menu will appear with a list of programs that “undertake” to open the pdf file. Without problems (i.e. in normal form) it opens a pdf file, for example, free program Adobe Reader (number 3 in Fig. 11). Click on it (number 3 in Fig. 9).

The file with boarding passes has been opened, now the most important thing is to print them. By the way, if you DO NOT need to check things in as luggage, then after completing Online check-in and printing out your boarding pass, you can come to the airport and immediately board without stopping at the check-in counter.
