Even people who have visited Sochi once or twice do not immediately develop the correct understanding that Sochi airport and Adler airport are the same thing. The airport is international, but at the same time some kind of small and small-town, especially in the arrivals area. With its own railway line, along which you can get to any settlement in the direction of Sochi or Rosa Khutor. Airplanes from Moscow, as a rule, are driven directly to the airport building and people are dropped off through the so-called «sleeve» - a handy bonus. In general, everything is clear here, the traffic pattern is not confused and all directions are well read by signs.

Sochi airport
Description
Adler is perceived as a separate, independent city, due to the elongation of Sochi along the coast and the concentration of its infrastructure around the former villages and villages, now - microdistricts. Adler is the largest of them. It is located on a plain, so they managed to push a lot of useful things into its infrastructure: an airport, a large railway station, an old city, a new city, Olympic facilities of the maritime cluster, the border with Abkhazia and a bunch of highways, where even experienced fighters of the Moscow Ring Road can get lost. and ring road.
All tourists arriving in Sochi for the first time are surprised that it is still necessary to get from Sochi airport to Sochi itself, and never once for five minutes. In principle, this is not a new phenomenon, but it turns out that you need to drive not through the wastelands of the suburbs, but through the dense infrastructure of a large city.
The airport operates around the clock, accepts almost all types of aircraft, has several types of parking: free, hourly (100 rubles per hour) and daily (350-500 rubles per day).
On the second floor, in the sectors «IN» airport you will find free «mother and child room», to be more precise - an apartment that includes a reception room, bedroom, bathroom and kitchen.
In the sector «WITH» there is a luggage room, where for 300 rubles per day (and plus 100 for each next one) you can drop your luggage. Well, and standard for all airports, free Wi-Fi with quite stable quality and connection speed.

As I said above, the airport in Sochi has its own railway line, which ends next to the terminal. You can easily find the hardware station by following the signs, so there is no need to write any special instructions.
High-speed electric trains run from the airport to the Adler railway station on a schedule that changes periodically and it is better to watch it on the side of the Russian Railways. It takes about 10 minutes to get to Adler, and almost an hour to Sochi.
With transportation to Krasnaya Polyana from the airport, the situation is much worse, there is some kind of muddy schedule, only a few trains a day. It is not clear whether it is generally tailored to the arrival of flights or not. Therefore, I usually take either a taxi, or a rented car, or car sharing..
