Sochi's oneworld departures lounge — open around the clock.
The Sochi Airport Business lounge is the airside departures lounge at Sochi International, reserved for eligible passengers travelling on oneworld member airlines. It sits in the departures area after security and stays open 24 hours a day, which makes it handy whether your oneworld flight leaves early in the morning or late at night. The lounge offers Wi-Fi to stay connected, complimentary snacks to tide you over, and a drinks selection that runs from soft drinks to house wine, beer and spirits. Unlike the airport's two pay-in lounges, this one isn't open to walk-up customers — entry is tied to your oneworld ticket and frequent-flyer status. If you're flying a qualifying oneworld carrier out of Sochi, it's the branded-alliance lounge to head for; if not, the pay-in International Business Lounge or Comfort Lounge are the alternatives.
Crowding · generally quiet
A quiet, 24-hour space with Wi-Fi that works well for catching up on email between flights. Comfortable for light work and downtime rather than a dedicated business setup.
A straightforward offering geared to oneworld travellers between flights: complimentary snacks alongside soft drinks and a bar with house wine, beer and spirits. It covers a drink and a bite rather than a full sit-down meal.
