Most Sheremetyevo lounges sell entry at the door to any passenger for a fee, regardless of class of service. This is the most reliable route at SVO — booking ahead online where available is usually cheaper than paying on arrival.

A few Sheremetyevo lounges, including the Amber Lounge in Terminal F and Priority Point in the domestic Terminal B, welcome Priority Pass members. Coverage is narrower than the walk-in pay-in route, so confirm your specific lounge and terminal before travelling.

Priority Pass

A business- or first-class ticket on your airline may include access to one of Sheremetyevo's business lounges — check with your carrier, as lounge assignment depends on which terminal and airline you're flying.

Because SVO's lounges admit any passenger for a fee, you don't need airline status or a membership to use one. Pick a lounge in your departure terminal and pay at the door or pre-book where the option exists.

Match the terminal

• —Sheremetyevo's terminals split into a northern complex (B and C) and an interconnected southern complex (D, E and F) — pick a lounge in the terminal you're flying from.
• —Terminal C is the newest international terminal; Terminal B handles domestic flights.
• —Allow extra time to walk between the connected D, E and F terminals if your lounge isn't right by your gate.

Pay-per-visit works here

• —Almost every SVO lounge admits any passenger for a fee, so you don't need airline status or a membership to get in.
• —Walk-in pay-in is the default route — confirm pricing at the door or pre-book online where the lounge offers it.
• —The Baikal lounge is landside in Terminal D, useful if you want to settle before clearing security.

Where Priority Pass works

• —Priority Pass is accepted at a smaller set of SVO lounges, including the Amber Lounge in Terminal F and Priority Point in domestic Terminal B.
• —If you carry Priority Pass, check the per-lounge page to confirm it covers your terminal before you commit.
• —Where Priority Pass isn't accepted, the walk-in pay-in option still gets you in for a fee.

Standout lounges

• —The Rublev Lounge holds a Guinness World Record for the longest business-lounge buffet in the world at 34 metres.
• —The El Lissitzky and Rublev lounges were designed by M+R Interior Architecture, the firm behind lounges at Amsterdam Schiphol.
• —The MasterCard Lounge features an à la carte chef's menu created by the Ginza Project restaurant group, plus an interior garden and library.
