Positive reviews

Alexander

We recently flew from Vietnam on flight 2736, Boeing plane 777-200. The impressions were very good. The ten-hour flight passed in comfortable conditions. I liked the food. Warm blankets were distributed to everyone. Takeoff and landing are almost imperceptible. The flight was not delayed. Thank you to the airline for the excellent service!

Olga

We traveled on May 10, 2017 with the Northern Wind airline from Cheboksary to Belgorod via Moscow. I was pleased with the price of the ticket, the plane was clean, the flight went without delays. Although there was a connecting flight, we made it to the next one! Special thanks to the flight attendants and pilot!

Yaroslav

We had such a story with Nord Wind. Five of us flew on May 2 from Sheremetyevo to Simferopol; on May 12 the tickets were in the opposite direction. The first and second time, flights were delayed by an hour and a half. Then it turned out that the delay was caused by the airport itself. Both times, instead of the promised Airbus A321 North Wind, they provided a Boeing 767 Pegasus. At first they didn’t understand that this was the same organization. The flight went well, the cabin was comfortable, the food was good.

Negative reviews

Vadim

Our plane and several other company aircraft were detained on the day of departure to Sheremetyevo. Nobody really explained anything. We spent several hours waiting. The company employees did not consider it necessary to offer us either food or drinks. I was very upset by this attitude of Nord Wind towards its clients.

Lika

My acquaintance with Nord Wind also left negative impressions. Flight as part of a tourist package from Pegasus, Moscow - Bangkok. The flight was moved from eight in the evening to five in the morning. An entire vacation day is lost. Representatives of the airline blamed everything on bad weather and aircraft breakdown. Other passengers said that this happens quite often on North Wind Airlines. If you have old planes that constantly break down, replace them! Why should people suffer!

Georgiy

Flight 1805 - Moscow - Antalya dated 05/13/2017 was supposed to take place at 9 am from Sheremetyevo Airport, then a different time was scheduled several times. The airliner was never delivered. As compensation, they handed out a bottle of water. We were asked to pick up our things. Some went to the hotel (provided with meals), but we went home. They promised to inform us about the departure time, but no one called. Our flight was sent without us. The travel agent said that we ourselves are to blame for this, buy tickets at your own expense. This is how our mood was ruined along with our vacation.

Nord Wind strives to provide quality service and meet the needs of every passenger. Air travel must meet all safety requirements and leave a good impression. All reviews about North Wind Airlines, negative and positive, will help improve service during the flight and help avoid many ambiguous situations. The best reward for the company will be an honest review on the pages of the website or social networks. Have you used the services of this airline? Write your reviews!

Characteristics

Business class passenger service standard:

Nordwind Airlines is a Russian air carrier that began operations in 2008. In Russian, its name sounds like “Nordwind Airlines”, the owner is the limited liability company “Northern Wind”.

general information

The airline is a “daughter” of the well-known Pegasus and is based in the capital’s Sheremetyevo.

Over ten years of Nord Wind's operation, started with three air gardens and 6 routes, significantly increased its fleet, equipping it with modern airbuses and Boeings, including those designed for ultra-long flights (more than 10 thousand km), and also expanded the geography of flight destinations.

Focusing its activities on the comfort and safety of passengers, continuous improvement and development, the company, originally founded to carry out charter flights to popular foreign resorts, since 2016 began to gradually add regular flights to its flight schedule - both domestic and international.

Company board

Today, North Wind is one of the top 10 largest air carriers in terms of passenger turnover, flying to 85 destinations: Israel, Vietnam, Turkey, Morocco, Phuket, Greece, Spain, Italy, Egypt and many others, and is working to constantly increase this number .

Nord Wind organizes regular flights from such administrative centers as Moscow, St. Petersburg, Belgorod, Anapa, Yakutsk, Krasnoyarsk, Yekaterinburg, Voronezh, Novosibirsk, Omsk, Volgograd, Sochi, Ufa, Simferopol, Chelyabinsk and more than 20 cities, performing at least a hundred flights daily.

Check-in rules

The principles of operation of air transport differ significantly from the procedure for traveling on buses, trains or even ferries - simply purchasing a ticket and having it with you during boarding is not enough, you need to arrive at the departure point in advance and go through the mandatory check-in procedure for the flight, without which passengers simply will not be allowed on board. board the aircraft, and by “in advance” we mean at least two to three hours. At the same time, you still have to stand in line, often quite long.

Note! Typically, most passengers check in at the airport, where special counters and kiosks are provided for this purpose, for an independent procedure, but in both cases you will most likely have to spend at least 40 minutes - an hour, not to mention the fact that a whole hour standing, especially with suitcases, bags and small children - a very dubious pleasure.

After checking in, the passenger receives a boarding pass with the number of the seat allocated to him in the aircraft cabin. Of course, you can ask the check-in employee for a specific place - near a window or aisle, depending on the individual preferences of the traveler, but it is not at all a fact that they will meet him halfway, and often the desired places may simply no longer be available. This is especially offensive if the passenger gets seasick and feels uncomfortable while flying in the rear of the plane, or if a family (a large group) is flying and everyone wants to sit together, and not at different ends of the cabin.

There are often cases when late passengers have conflict situations - for example, a mother and child want to sit next to each other, and they would certainly accommodate her, but there are only two/three/four empty seats left, and all of them are several rows apart from each other.

Airport check-in counters

To avoid such unpleasant moments and not be nervous on the way to the airport, there is a great way to save your time and maintain peace of mind - electronic check-in.

It has undeniable advantages over the usual one, allowing you to avoid all the problems described above:

You can register from your home or office any time after registration opens, while lying on the couch, sitting with a cup of your favorite coffee, or during a break between meetings.
You can choose the best free seats in the aircraft cabin or purchase paid ones - for example, with increased legroom . This is an excellent opportunity, since bad seats can significantly spoil the impression of a flight, especially an overnight or long one: queues will form near the rows close to the toilet, there may be shaking at the end of the cabin and all the sounds and smells of the kitchen will be heard.
There is no need to arrive at the airport several hours in advance - an hour and a half is enough, since the passenger is already on the general boarding list, or even less if there is no need to check in luggage. In this case, it is enough to arrive in such a way as to go through passport control and proceed to the boarding gate. This possibility is especially relevant when there is a possibility of being late for a plane - during connecting flights, train delays (in the case of non-resident passengers) and many other cases. Many passengers flying from Moscow and not living in the capital are often forced to wait much longer than necessary: when choosing a train/bus, they will prefer not the one that arrives three to four hours before departure, but the one that provides a reserve of 7 hours -8, or even more hours, since an intermediate ideal option can be found quite rarely. On line registration can successfully solve this problem.

Of course, this procedure also has some disadvantages:

When not all luxury seats have been purchased, passengers with children or those checking in among the latter can be accommodated in them without additional payment - the paying seat neighbors will, of course, be offended. But if there is no fear of taking the risk of flying in a bad place or not flying at all (no one has canceled the possibility of overbooking), then you can successfully use this chance.
If you have luggage, you will still have to check it in (often at common counters), since luggage tags are of a strictly established type and you cannot print them yourself at home.

Some large air terminals are equipped with special baggage collection points (Drop Off Luggage), where you can check in your own suitcases and leave them for loading on board, having pasted all the necessary tags printed on them automatically. In these same machines you can make an additional payment for excess weight. The queue there will be much shorter than at regular counters.

Note! This option is available only after completing electronic check-in for the flight!

Self-service baggage drop-off counter.

There are also airports where there are practically no usual check-in counters, but at the same time there are many points where check-in of passengers and baggage is carried out automatically.

Attention! In any case, baggage must be checked in no later than check-in for the desired flight is completed.

But no matter how much the listed disadvantages overshadow the advantages, there are still many more of the latter.

The most common reason for not using online registration is that many people simply don’t know about it.

Meanwhile, airlines always encourage such a convenient option as it significantly reduces their costs. Passengers also benefit in this situation - the procedure allows you to save up to several hours of precious time.

Attention! Electronic check-in is available for all charter and scheduled flights departing from airports in Russia and the CIS countries.

After passing it, the airline recommends arriving at the airport at least an hour and a half in advance if you need to check in your luggage and check in hand luggage, and at least an hour in advance if you are traveling lightly, since boarding ends 20 minutes before the scheduled departure time .

How to check in for a flight online. Reservations

To check in for a plane online, you just need to know the parameters of your reservation (assigned when purchasing a ticket) and have access to the Internet.

At the same stage, you can order additional paid services and enter your privilege club card number.

Note! The airline does not guarantee that the passenger will be given the seat that was chosen during check-in for a number of reasons: for example, the flight may be made by another board, or at the request of the security service, but this does not happen often.

After clicking the “complete” button, you need to print your boarding pass or save it on your computer/mobile device so you can print it later.

Registration stages

Receiving your boarding pass is the final stage of check-in. The easiest way is to print it on your home or office printer immediately after completing the registration procedure.

If you don’t have a printer at hand, you can get a coupon at the registration counters. Many airports also have the option to print it at self-check-in kiosks or terminal service centers.

Note! If you check in using a mobile device, you can print out your boarding pass using special devices by attaching a phone display with a QR code of the ticket to their reader.

The ticket contains information about the boarding gate number, the start time of boarding the aircraft and the passenger’s seat in the cabin.

If there is no need to check in your luggage, you can take it straight to boarding, having gone through passport control and the inspection procedure.

Boarding pass.

It may look slightly different depending on whether it was printed on a regular A4 printer, a check-in kiosk or handed out at a counter.

Additional Information! Today, seats in the aircraft cabin can be selected when ordering a ticket, after booking in the “my ticket” section of your personal account and when checking in online or at the airport.

Mobile registration

This means registration using a mobile device. The difference between this type of check-in is that after completion, the boarding pass is displayed on the display of the mobile device. You can save it in photo format or send it to yourself by e-mail. When boarding, just show the airline staff the pass on your phone screen.

The general algorithm of actions is the same as when registering using a PC.

Nordwind Airlines mobile application at the moment not yet.

Restrictions when registering online

For all its convenience and simplicity, online registration still has a number of limitations.

According to the general rules of the “North Wind”, it can be used if:

the flight is carried out by Nordwind’s own flights;
there is no more than a day left before departure and at least four hours for international flights departing to the Russian Federation (except Yerevan and Antalya) and one hour for those departing from Russia;
There are no plans to transport weapons, pets or luggage in a separate place in the cabin.

Attention! It should be borne in mind that electronic check-in is prohibited at a number of departure airports (Tehran, Aktau and some others), and also that the company allocates a certain number of seats for it.

For a number of Promo tariffs (economy, comfort and business) and charters, the option is available only in case of simultaneous purchase of the seat selection service.

Thus, the opportunity to independently check in for a flight is one of those pleasant bonuses that the airline offers its passengers and which, without a doubt, should be used to make your flight and its anticipation as comfortable as possible.
