If you drink, drink. If you don't drink, drink.

Send me a PM with the company name/number please--or post it here--guess it doesn't matter. I want to ask them if my husband is on crew visa already, can I get a longer life visa for multiple trips?
We use CIBT for his Russian visa and secondary passport, so I can call them--but I'd be curious if any different with another company. Are you finding decent hotel prices?
LuxuryLink only offers one St. Petersburg property and it's premium...
PS--could I refer you to LuxLink? I need an email via PM. You can get instant $100 off first purchase.
We just did a Neuvo Cancun AI resort and it was very reasonable.

Will use gotorussia dot com
It is $239 for everything and since I will not stay beyond 7 days, I do not have to have the passport registered with authorities in Moscow.
So far I have found a few hostels I like near Red Square, for about $25 per night.
Hotels in Moscow are very expensive.
I will definitely drink some vodka over there!
