OREANDA-NEWS. Moscow Domodedovo Airport and company "Platezhny mir RURU" announced successful launch of SMS-parking in the airport. Subscribers of mobile phone operators Beeline, MTS and Megafon can pay for parking in Domodedovo via mobile phone without any service fee. Domodedovo became the first Russian airport, providing such service.

SMS-parking is a very simple service. Entering the Domodedovo Airport paid parking, a driver receives standard parking ticket, which is necessary to keep during the whole parking period. Before leaving parking area, driver wishing to pay for parking via SMS, should send a short message pdme ¹ (putting instead of ¹ a parking ticket number - 6 or 12 figures, depending on ticket type) to number 7878.

In Domodedovo parking lasting less than 15 minutes is free of charge and a car owner, not exceeding this limit, will receive the following reply to his SMS: "Проезжайте. Время пользования парковкой менее 15 минут - оплата не требуется. RURU.ru" (“Pass by. Parking is less than 15 minutes - payment is not charged. RURU.ru”)

If parking period exceeds 15 minutes, a driver receives message from company "Platezhny mir RURU" where payment sum is indicated: "Для подтверждения оплаты парковки в Домодедово в размере NN рублей, отправьте (в течение 5 минут) ответное бесплатное SMS с цифрой 1 на номер 8464, для отказа с цифрой 0". (“For confirmation of Domodedovo parking payment in a sum of NN rubles, send (during 5 minutes) free SMS reply with figure 1 on number 8646, for denial - with figure 0”.) Sending SMS message with figure 1 a driver confirms parking payment, after that he receives one more message - confirmation with indication of sum and payment number.

Moscow Domodedovo Airport Director Igor Borisov notices: “Caring about air travelers and airport guests' comfort, we regularly implement new services. Automobilists convenience is one of the most important directions, on which we concentrate our efforts. The new service of SMS-parking in the airport is very convenient thanks to its simplicity and flexibility. Subscribers of “the big three” mobile phone operators - and this is a majority of the Russians - receive one more opportunity to pay quickly for parking at standard price”.
