    @pnuts The other answer says that the problem is that citizens of third-party states must have their documents checked when moving between Belarus and Russia. This is given as the reason why they can no longer drive across the border, since there are no border checks. If there are also no document checks when flying, that would suggest that flying is also not allowed. Commented Oct 12, 2016 at 12:47

    If they have checkpoint at the airport, they can simply escort foreigner to passport control or they could instruct the airlines to not to accept foreigners traveling to Russia from Belarus. Airlines do check passport and visa at check-ins before boarding the plane and they could tell the passenger they will need to book a different route to Russia. I'm guessing this might happen but don't know how its being done right now if they're enforcing it somehow.

  • In November, I departed from Moscow and the flight information on the monitor showed all incoming/outgoing flights to Belarus are at international terminal at DMO which passport control is present. I would assume the new procedures aren't in force yet.
