Preparing for the registration process

To get on the plane without tedious standing in line, the registration process can be completed online, having received the booking code in your hands. Such manipulation is now possible when buying a ticket for any flight: domestic or transatlantic.

To register an Aeroflot airline ticket, you need a computer or mobile phone with Internet access. To fill out a ticket, you need to have a passport at hand, from where the following data will be rewritten:

• Series and number.
• The name of the organization that issued the passport.

Before starting online check-in, you need to know the exact direction of the route, flight number, etc. The passenger has the opportunity to book the seat that suits him best. But this can be done from the list available on the site, and there most often some places will be grayed out (unavailable), regardless of the time of registration.

It is not always possible to book a ticket for an Aeroflot flight. There are some cases in which online registration is not possible. For example, a passenger traveling with an animal cannot place an order. The same situation threatens children who are trying to purchase a ticket without a parent or guardian's accompaniment, seriously ill people and people with disabilities will not be able to register online.

This special group of passengers includes people who plan to carry dangerous goods with them. It will not be possible to check-in from a mobile or computer for passengers whose tickets were issued through travel agencies when purchasing more than 9 tickets.

You don't have to go to the check-in counter with this printout. In addition to online check-in, the service allows you to view the online scoreboard and flight schedule. The passenger can check the reservation, apply for group transportation, cruise, exchange or return the ticket. It is very convenient to book a car or a hotel room from the official website. Using a calculator, calculate the required data and the total amount. In case of loss of baggage, the passenger can view the search status online.

When leaving for boarding, a person must have a printed boarding document in their hands. If it was not possible to do this at home, you can print the document at self-check-in kiosks at the airport itself.

If you do not go to the site and start the procedure or the form is loaded with errors, you should check the browser through which the address opens. Since the service works on the HTML5 platform, you can open the online registration window in the following browsers:

1. Chrome28 +.
2. Internet Explorer10 +.
3. Opera12 +.
4. Firefox22 +.
5. Safari5 +.

The registration procedure begins with familiarization with the rules, after which the passenger must tick the read checkbox at the bottom of the page. After that, a form will appear on the screen where you will need to enter the airline's booking number and the traveler's initials. You need to record exactly with the itinerary receipt.

A form can have 3 different booking numbers. A passenger needs an airline booking number to check in. In addition to this value, there will be the reservation number of the global distribution system (air ticket check) and the agency's reservation. Having chosen a room, the passenger should familiarize himself with the list of prohibited substances and items that cannot be transported with him. Then you should proceed with the registration.

The next step is to select a passenger and a seat (rightmost button). You can also enter your Aeroflot Bonus card number right there by clicking on the button with the name "FFP member number". In this part of the procedure, a map of the placement of seats in the aircraft cabin will open. Here you need to be extremely careful. All gray-colored seats cannot be selected, since these seats are either occupied or blocked by the airline. These are usually the emergency exit seats and the first row.

If a seat is selected, it will be highlighted and its number will appear next to the passenger's name. After choosing a place, you should click on the "Register" button. The procedure is almost complete, all that remains is to print the boarding receipt. A button with a similar inscription will also be highlighted.

Online check-in from a mobile phone

Online check-in using a computer and a mobile is different. The first difference is the website address. A special site is available for mobile ordering, which is convenient to view on IOS (iPhone), Windows Phone and Android devices. If the service does not work, it is worth revising the technical settings of the device and re-booking a seat on the Aeroflot flight.

You can register a seat 45 minutes before the end of the flight or one day before the start. After completing the order, the passenger will receive a booking code in the form of a 2D barcode. This procedure can be done at any terminal of Sheremetyevo airport, having received a booking code.

There are restrictions on mobile registration. So, it is impossible to register for people who need additional services when choosing an airport that is not included in the list of available ones. The passenger should be aware that at Sheremetyevo airport you can drop off your baggage at special Dropp Off counters, but not later than the end of check-in.

It is important to remember that online check-in is not possible if the passenger chooses a flight to India or the USA. For parents with a child under 2 years old, online check-in for any flight destination is not available.
