For many people, a visit to St. Petersburg begins at Pulkovo Airport: the two terminals,
Pulkovo 1 and 2, are the aerial gateway to St. Petersburg, Russia. The terminals are equipped
with an automatic check-in system, mechanised luggage check-in and reclaim and a modern information
system. They have spacious and comfortable waiting areas, cafes, restaurants and bars, business
lounges, international telephone and telegraph, duty-free shops and various kiosks selling, among
other things, souvenirs to provide a permanent reminder of our fine city.
One of the merits of the terminals is their convenient location - only 30 minutes away, along one
of the most beautiful avenues.
Thanks to Pulkovo Aviation Enterprise, you can now fly to St. Petersburg from many cities in Europe,

ADVICE from Petersburg-Lodging.com:
TRANSFER SERVICES. Also, we would like to offer
to you our transfer services from the airport to your rental apartment
in Saint Petersburg. The cost is US$ 35 (30 Euros) one way (1-3
persons). Please send us your flight details and we will meet you
with a car and driver. Our transfer service is very inexpensive
when compared to traditional taxi services which charge VERY HIGH
rates. Taxi services are NOT as reliable or prompt as our service
and we do not recommend them for important trips to and from your
rental apartment. We have our own personal drivers who will help
you to have safe trips to and from the St Petersburg airport.
