WiFi & Connectivity
Stay connected at Koltsovo Airport — free WiFi, eSIM options and local data for Russia.
Airport WiFi at SVX
Registration required to connect — look for the sign-in page after joining the network.
Standard international eSIMs generally won't activate data service inside Russia due to sanctions-related restrictions — travelers typically need a local Russian SIM card (bought with a passport, sometimes restricted for foreigners) rather than relying on eSIM roaming.
Free Wi-Fi requires a Russian mobile number to receive the SMS registration code — if you don't have one, ask airport information staff, since self-service registration can otherwise be a dead end for foreign visitors.
