About GOJ

Strigino International Airport (GOJ) is the gateway for Nizhny Novgorod, and its two lounges sit on opposite sides of the building, one for each terminal. The Airport Lounge serves the International Terminal, airside after security, while the Business Lounge serves the Domestic Terminal from the second floor, just past the retail gallery. Both are pay-in lounges — there's no membership or airline status requirement, so you can buy a walk-in day pass at the door on the day of travel. The only thing to get right is the terminal: international and domestic departures are handled separately, so choose the lounge that matches your flight. The Business Lounge includes complimentary snacks and soft drinks; the Airport Lounge has food available to buy alongside complimentary soft drinks, and both sell premium drinks.

How we compile this guide

Sourced, never sponsored.

This guide is compiled from airline, alliance and lounge-operator sources plus published access rules from Priority Pass and DragonPass — we haven't independently visited every Airport (GOJ) lounge yet. Nothing here is a paid placement, and the guide is updated as lounges open, close, renovate or change access policies. Read more about how we verify lounge data.

Where we'd actually go.

Best Overall

Airport Lounge

The Airport Lounge in the International Terminal is the most useful option for travellers leaving Nizhny Novgorod on a foreign flight. It sits airside after security and sells walk-in entry, so you can pay per visit without status or a membership before an international departure.

Best in the Domestic Terminal

Business Lounge

The Business Lounge is the airside option for domestic departures, on the second floor of the Domestic Terminal just past the retail gallery. It sells pay-in entry and serves complimentary snacks and soft drinks, a calmer place to wait before a flight within Russia.

Best for Pay-Per-Visit

Airport Lounge

Both Strigino lounges are walk-in, pay-in spaces with no membership required, so the choice comes down to your terminal. The International Terminal's Airport Lounge is the pay-per-visit pick for anyone flying abroad, with entry bought at the door on the day.

Access guide

How to get into lounges at GOJ.

Strigino is a straightforward pay-per-visit airport — both of its lounges sell walk-in entry, so you don't need airline status or a lounge membership to get in. The only thing to get right is the terminal: the Airport Lounge is in the International Terminal and the Business Lounge in the Domestic Terminal, and you choose based on the flight you're catching.

Day pass

Walk-in day pass

Both Strigino lounges sell pay-in entry at the door — the Airport Lounge in the International Terminal and the Business Lounge in the Domestic Terminal. There's no membership or status requirement; you simply pay for the visit when you arrive.

Paid Entry
Pay per visit

Pay on the day

Because access is pay-in, you can decide to use a lounge on the day of travel rather than committing in advance. Pick the lounge in the terminal you're flying from — international or domestic — and buy entry at reception.

Paid Entry
Location

Match the terminal to your flight

Strigino splits international and domestic departures into separate terminals, each with its own lounge. Confirm whether your flight leaves from the International or Domestic Terminal before clearing security, as both lounges are airside on their own side of the building.

Insider tips

Know before you go.

01

Match the lounge to your terminal

  • Strigino has separate International and Domestic terminals — the Airport Lounge serves international flights, the Business Lounge serves domestic.
  • Both lounges are airside, so you'll clear security in the right terminal before reaching them.
  • Check your departure terminal on the day, as the two lounges aren't interchangeable once you're through the checkpoint.
02

Pay-per-visit works here

  • Neither lounge needs a membership or airline status — both sell pay-in entry at the door.
  • You can decide to use the lounge on the day rather than booking ahead.
  • If one terminal's lounge is busy, that's the only lounge on that side — there isn't a second option in the same terminal.
03

Food and drink

  • The Domestic Terminal's Business Lounge includes complimentary snacks and soft drinks.
  • The International Terminal's Airport Lounge has food available to buy, with complimentary soft drinks.
  • Both lounges sell premium drinks, so budget for those separately if you want more than the included soft drinks.
04

Finding the lounges

  • In the Domestic Terminal, head to the second floor and look just past the retail gallery for the Business Lounge.
  • In the International Terminal, the Airport Lounge is airside after you pass security.
  • Allow time for check-in and security at Strigino before counting on a long lounge stay.
