This information can help you to organise your trip to Russia
Visa
If you are going to Russia you need to get Russian visa, you can do it in Russian Embassy
in your city or in some agencies that offer their help in making visa. It's more expensive
but very often much easier. The best way is to ask for tourist visa in Russian Embassy
without telling about any cat show but to speak only about your wish to have nice
week-end in Moscow, it'll be much easier.
To start making visa you have to have tickets, hotel reservation and invitation from Russian side.
Tickets
We are sure you know many websites with nice flights, you can also
use Russian
Airlines Aeroflot which uses very comfortable and safe planes.
If you choose Aeroflot please do not forget to send special 'Pet in cabin' request.
Only after confirmation from Aeroflot your cat will be allowed to be placed in cabin.
The main International Moscow airport is Sheremetyevo, which is situated about
20 km to the North from Moscow, some flights come to Domodedovo airport
(to the South from Moscow).
Hotel reservation
The information about show hotel is placed at the show page. We try to offer you
the most convenient place with affordable rates, close to show hall.
Taxi
Payments
We allow our foreign guests to pay at the entrance as it's rather difficult to transfer
money to Russia, besides usually very large bank comission is needed.
Cages
Our exhibitors from Russia have to use only their own cages but we are ready to offer
cages for foreign guests' cats. Please specify in your letter how many cages are required.
Weather
Keep in mind that Russian weather can be quite unpredictable and sometimes rather cold.
Please always check the weather before coming to Russia and think about your clothes.
Look at very useful hp www.english.go-to.ru, here you can find a lot of information about visas,
invitations, taxi with English speaking driver etc. They help to get invitation for tourist visa,
also you can find a lot of information about Moscow there.
If you have some more question do not hesitate to write letter with your questions
to show manager Anna Karpova: jetcat-tica@mail.ru
