Spending the night at the airport
Volgograd airport is small and somewhat outdated, but it is open 24 hours a day, so if you need to spend the night on the premises, there are a few options available.
Where to rest: The number of seats inside the terminal is adequate for the size of the airport, but have a sleeping bag or blankets in case you need to sleep on the floor. There are also a couple of VIP lounges with more amenities that are open 24 hours a day, but the maximum stay is 3 hours. There are a few hotels in the surrounding area.
Baggage: 24-hour left-luggage service is available on the first floor.
Eating and drinking: Shops are closed at night, but vending machines are available.
Wi-Fi: Free and unlimited.
Other services available around the clock: ATMs, nursing room.

Tips for a long layover
- Check whether you can leave the airport: it depends on your nationality, the visa rules of Russia and whether your bags are checked through.
- If you sleep airside, you will usually need a boarding pass for a flight that day. Ask your airline before you go through security.
- A lounge with day access can be cheaper than a hotel for a few hours: see VIP lounges at VOG.
- Keep your valuables with you, set an alarm and carry a light layer: terminals are often cold at night.
- Going to a hotel in town? See transportation from VOG (15 km to Volgogrado), and check which services run at night.
