WiFi & Connectivity
Stay connected at Vnukovo International Airport — free WiFi, eSIM options and local data for Russia.
Airport WiFi at VKO
Registration required to connect — look for the sign-in page after joining the network.
International eSIMs and standard roaming plans generally don't get a data signal in Russia due to local SIM-registration requirements — rely on airport/hotel Wi-Fi or a Russian SIM bought with your passport instead.
The free tier is limited to about 15 minutes via SMS verification — a paid 24-hour pass (roughly 129 rubles) is available if you need longer, but you'll need a working local payment method or cash to buy it.
