Terminal 1 hosts 5 airlines.
All flights at Anapa run through compact Terminal 1
Every Aeroflot, S7 Airlines, Red Wings Airlines, Ural Airlines, and Yamal Airlines departure at Anapa Vityazevo uses Terminal 1, so domestic and the handful of international routes all share the same small building. The layout is simple: one main check-in hall, a single security funnel, and a shared departures area with a few gates in a straight line.
Security for Terminal 1 usually feeds directly into one common holding area, so once you pass the checkpoint you are basically at your gate already. There is no separate concourse by letter or pier; signs simply show gate numbers for all Terminal 1 flights. That means walking times stay short, even if your Aeroflot or S7 flight boards from one of the farther stands.
Check-in desks for Aeroflot, S7 Airlines, Red Wings Airlines, Ural Airlines, and Yamal Airlines sit along the same front hall, so you can see most counters from one spot. During busy summer hours, allow at least 60 minutes before departure, since several flights can queue at the same time in this single terminal. Off-season, lines drop sharply and the building feels half-used.
Post-security in Terminal 1, the commercial side is minimal: current public listings show no branded restaurants, lounges, or named shops. You may find a small kiosk or stand for drinks and snacks near the gates, but nothing like a full cafe or bar with seating. Eat before you arrive at AAQ, or bring something from town if you have a longer wait planned.
Lounges are not catalogued for Terminal 1, and there is no sign of an airline-branded space for carriers like Aeroflot or S7 Airlines here. Expect standard gate seating and basic facilities only, with boarding called over speakers close to each gate. Power outlets can be limited, so charge your phone and laptop before you reach the airport.
Terminal 1 handles all arrivals as well, so domestic bags from Moscow or St. Petersburg and seasonal international bags come off in the same baggage claim zone. Passport control, when used for an international flight, sits just before this shared hall. Ground transport options, including taxis and local transfers into Anapa, line up outside directly in front of the terminal doors.
One practical tip: pick up food and charge devices in Anapa city before heading out, then aim to be at Terminal 1 around 60–75 minutes before departure during peak summer season to clear check-in and security without stress.
