Astrakhan International Airport

Due to the length of the runway, this airport has international status, but there are no public international flights. Two waiting areas, a small museum, cafes, souvenir shops - in general this airport can be called convenient, and such a small size not spoils the impression. The only annoying thing is the absence of international flights with the status of an international airport.

Good airport

Ребята, ну вы и замутили с парковкой, это насколько вы уважаете своих пассажиров что оставили им маленький пяточек с бесплатной парковкой, где перед прилетом "машина на машине", "куча мала" зато на обширной площади платной парковки около 8ми автомобилей. Где разум? Не заработаете вы великих денег на парковке в Астрахани, только людей злите создавая неудобства при пешем броске на 2км до аэропорта с чемоданами.

The airport is obsolete. Minuses: Small area of ​​the room; Unreasonably large number of inspectors at the entrance; There are practically no polite employees; Always dirty baggage inspection tapes; Of all the organized check-in counters, only a small fraction are open; When asked to stick a “fragile” tag on the luggage, they reply that there are none. Domestic flights to a very limited number of cities. As of December 2020, these are Moscow, Volgograd and Sochi. Unreasonably high prices in the air cafe in the check-in area. The seats in the waiting areas are extremely uncomfortable, hard and cold. TOILETS !!!!!! extremely disgusting toilets !!! All normal air terminals provide for the use of sanitizers, liquid soap dispensers, normal toilet paper (and not the one in these booths). The toilets are dirty, they are smoked all the time (most likely airport workers smoke, since passengers and guests usually just go out into the street, fortunately, the building is small, and the exit is nearby). The washstands are scary, yellow. Hand drying - dead poultice. Obsessive taxi drivers (there are many of them, and they stand close to the doors of the arrivals hall). HUGE MINUS: during a pandemic, no one anywhere in the airport measures the temperature of passengers. That is, airport personnel put not only themselves at risk, but also passengers. Pros: The airport has a large parking lot (paid). At the same time, daily parking and hourly parking are different. Keep this in mind. And the payment is different there. Although the parking did not work for the day on 05.12.2020-06.12.2020. Not so long ago they made a "sleeve" for the plane. That is, now passengers have become much more comfortable. It would be nice to renovate the building, update equipment, furniture, plumbing, etc. "There is no money" - the managers of the airport will say now. But start with the staff. Conduct free events to suppress the boorish attitude of the staff towards passengers, because for some of the passengers, the flight is already stress associated with the fear of heights, with parting, with a change of place, etc., so your specialists also add their rudeness. On the contrary, we need a warm atmosphere and support. In any case, the words "hello", "thank you" and "please" have not been canceled. We were met at the entrance by a rude aunt with the words “CHO are you taking there? Show me! ”,“ You have no luggage? But you have to buy a place in your luggage for iron items! " We did not react to her attacks, silently showed everything, and we were allowed to register. Other passengers were forced to remove glass bottles with wine from their luggage, arguing that the glass in the luggage would break. The poor fellows had to leave the bottle in Astrakhan. In general, there is still a lot of work on quality at the airport.
