Buying a Ticket on the Pegasus Airlines Website

On the homepage of the website (there is a Russian version), you need to select the departure airport, and then the arrival airport. You should enter "Lefkosa" as shown in the screenshot, not "Erdzhan," "Erkan," or even "Nicosia." Even in the Russian version of the website, the city name is written in Latin letters. After that, choose the date, indicate the number of passengers, and click on the search button.

After that, the available flight options will appear, and you can choose the one that suits you. You can also filter them at the top according to specific parameters, such as selecting a time interval or specifying that you only want a direct flight.

After selecting a flight, you will have the option to choose a fare. The fares differ in terms of baggage allowance, as well as the cancellation or rescheduling policy. The main details are provided at this stage.

On the next page, after selecting the fare, you will be offered the option to add a rescheduling or cancellation option in case your plans change. You can also reserve the ticket without purchasing it to lock in the price. This is also a paid option available for 5, 7, or 10 days.

If you want to purchase the ticket immediately, click on the "Go to passenger details" button in the bottom right corner.

Before entering your details, you will be offered additional services again. If you don't need them and the selected fare suits you, decline them and proceed to enter the passenger's information and bank card details.

The card used for payment must not be issued in Russia! Payment is made using the 3D Secure function, which means you will receive an SMS with a confirmation code on your phone.

Buying a Ticket with a Russian Card

If you don't have a foreign bank card and only have Russian cards, you can use the services of search aggregators. By the way, tickets there may be slightly cheaper than on the airline's website. However, keep in mind that you will have to make changes or cancellations through the same aggregator, not directly with the airline.

After searching and selecting a flight, the system will redirect you to the electronic checkout, where you can use Russian cards for payment. Here are some aggregators that allow you to buy tickets with Russian cards:

• Aviasales.ru
• Trip.com

Buying a Ticket with Cash

If you are purchasing a ticket in Russia, you can do so through independent ticket offices and buy the ticket with cash there. You can also call the carrier's support service at +74952839209. The website provides a mobile phone number (+79184400807), but the representatives who will assist you are the airline's partners in Russia, not their direct representatives.

If you are in Turkey, it will be easy to find ticket offices selling the airline's flights. They are available at airports where cash payments are accepted. You can obtain the addresses of these offices in Turkish cities by calling the call center at +908882281212.
