Yes, you can smoke at Kaliningrad Khrabrovo Airport (KGD), the gateway to Russia’s Baltic exclave, outdoors only. The terminal was rebuilt and expanded for the 2018 FIFA World Cup, when Kaliningrad was a host city, and the modern building has no indoor smoking rooms. Smoking is banned inside the terminal and close to the entrances, so smoke in the open air well clear of the doors.
Outdoor Smoking Area
Khrabrovo operates from a single passenger terminal serving domestic and international flights. The place to smoke is in the open air, well away from the terminal building. Smoking is not permitted inside the terminal or in the immediate area near the entrances, so walk out past the forecourt rather than lighting up by the doors.
Inside the Terminal
There is no confirmed indoor smoking room at Khrabrovo, either in the public landside area or in the airside departure zone after security and passport control. If you are flying out, smoke at the outdoor spot before you go through security, since you will not find a smoking room past the checkpoint.
