Seat selection on Red Wings
At check-in: seat selection at online check-in is paid, but on every flight there is a limited number of free seats at the rear of the cabin; at the desk, check-in onto free seats is free of charge. By fare: Light - selection is paid; Standard - rows 12-17 (D, E, F) are free on the SSJ100; Maximum - standard seats are free. Choosing a seat in advance: at purchase or in "My bookings" if more than a day remains before departure (later, only at online check-in); for Light it is paid, with the price depending on the fare and the seat. Increased-comfort seats from 1500 RUB (Russia) / 3500 RUB (international); emergency rows are sold only at the desk; the service is non-refundable. Without a paid seat: free seats at online check-in are only at the rear of the cabin and in limited numbers. For the Standard fare, rows 12-17 (D, E, F) on the SSJ100 are free (/fares/). Emergency-exit seats are paid only, at the desk, and with restrictions by passenger category.
Boarding pass
The boarding pass arrives by email and can be printed or resent in the check-in service. A phone version is accepted for departures from some cities (Sochi, Kazan, Istanbul, Minsk, Tbilisi, Astana and others), but the airline advises printing; from 01.03.2026 an electronic boarding pass is equated to a paper one. There is no online check-in for departures from Tel Aviv, Hurghada, Dubai, Sharjah, Hambantota, Bodrum, Bahrain and Kutaisi, on codeshare flights (only own WZ flights) and for groups of more than 9 people. Only at the airport: passengers with animals, with reduced mobility, and unaccompanied children.
Connecting flights
Online check-in applies only to Red Wings' own flights; for codeshare flights, only at the airport. For a transfer via Koltsovo (Yekaterinburg), you can check in and check baggage through to the final destination if the baggage contains no goods requiring written declaration.
1Checkin has checked passengers in on Red Wings flights departing from Abakan (ABA), Sochi (AER), Almaty (ALA), Archangelsk (ARH), Astrakhan (ASF), Antalya (AYT), Barnaul (BAX) and Belgrad (BEG), plus 56 more airports.
