I meet up with 109 at some nameless cocktail bar, the kind of glam place where beer costs $9 and a mojito $15… admittedly a nice place, but also the kind of place that shoots very large holes in your mongering budget within a few hours. Call it Club 88.
We notice that we are both wearing the same uniform, something that can best be described as a more than casual drinkers battle smock. We laugh at our impromptu team coordination and proceed on our mission to throw caution to the wind and defy nearly every rule of safe conduct recently established in the ISG forum… expensive watches, flashing cash and club cards, speaking English, hitting on every chick within range, getting tanked quickly and effectively.
A few cocktails and beers and about $150 later, we are successfully tanked and while some blond is forcing 109 to note her telephone number, I am chatting up a sweet Jewish-looking girl…. I seem to be getting somewhere and she is hanging around interested, but I am reasonably sure that she is not a possible one night stand… seems just too sweet and is being guarded by two girlfriends, both of which are quite attractive and well-dressed. Almost every girl is well-dressed at the bar, suggesting they are either gainfully employed somewhere as secretaries, mid-level managers or accountants, sponsored or somehow on the take. At least 1 NF pro is spotted by eagle-eyed 109. She indeed looks very whorish and a bit used up.
I order a last round of drinks and a very hot blonde standing with a well-dressed English guy chats me up. We make idle useless conversation and I blow her off… she seems a bit taken back. Guess she’s not used to getting blown off, but frankly Masha, I don’t give a damn.
I get the Jewish girls number and give her a kiss as we leave to get our coats, chatting up two other hotties on the way out, tempting them with a trip to a club, but they are headed home.
Mission successful I suppose, but what is a Jewish girl’s phone number worth?
Before leaving we run through the options audibly as the girls we had chatted up before listen in.
Skazka, the new in club where Minesterstevo (sp.) used to be, Slava, the distant large club frequented by easy chicks on Shosse Entusiastov, perennial favorite First, the lazy man’s option Karma Bar or Club XIII… the girls seem impressed with our club knowledge and maybe we should have invited them somewhere, but we are interested in finding new girls to grovel and slobber on.
We go outside to brave the –20° cold, stopping to take a [CodeWord140] as we watch the Hummer2s, 7 series BMWs, S-class Mercedes and Prado LandCruisers drive by… this town has too much fucking money.
PZ is within walking distance and we decide to go there, which turns out to be a good choice. We stroll past PZ’s unpredictable feis control and check our coats, heading upstairs to the club. Instantly we realize it’s a good choice. Although small and maybe even a bit dumpy, PZ is a good place to meet regular Russians and especially a great place to meet chicks getting really drunk. Finding a sober chick in PZ, although presumably possible, is difficult. Not that we were looking.
We buy a couple of drinks for some girls at the bar and then forget them as quickly as we feel our mojo moving in. 109 goes to the john and chats up some chicks waiting in line and beckons me to join them at their table where he is now seated. I am eyeing two attractive blondes talking to two English guys and they intermittently look back. I don’t know why, but today I am feeling destructive. I feel great and happy, but somehow feel like the Cleaner from Luc Besson’s classic film La Femme Nikita… like the guy called in to either clean up a messy situation or if necessary, be the one making the mess.
I join 109 at his table where he is sitting with a German guy and two girls. One of the girls is really cute, a dark-haired girl from Tomsk. Instantly the Tomsk girl and I are getting along great and she is giving me great vibes. I am more than chatty and doing a good job of moving in on her when she cautions me that she is actually together with the German guy. Undaunted as I realize that she is much more interested in me than him, I cautiously ask for her number. She says she will give it to me, but the German should not see it. What a *****, passing out her number to strangers when she is with somebody else. And me, frankly I am being an asshole tonight. It’s really not my style to move in on some other guy’s clam, but tonight I know no shame.
She leaves the table briefly and 109 follows her, getting her number for me. Thanks mate. I also write my number down and slip it to her later. The German guy is at least somewhat aware of what’s going on and seems to fall into some sort of depressed trance. If I were him I’d fight for my chick, but he doesn’t. He’s a nice guy and I feel a bit sorry for him, so I decide to lay off his chick. She actually told me she doesn’t like him much, but he is very kind so she cannot leave with me today, but will meet me tomorrow. 109 and I move on to other prey, the Tomsk girl squeezing my hand as I stand up. As we leave, the German guy suddenly cheers up and is happy again.
I go to the toilet and while waiting in line I see the two blondes who were with the English guys waiting in line as well. I talk to the one closest to me, telling her that 109 and I are the much better choice, we are incredibly rich sex maniacs. The blondes are very amused and we enjoy some fun conversation. I don’t push the issue as I KNOW the English guys wouldn’t just surrender and would probably try to kick my ass if they knew what I was doing… so I defuse that situation by adding some more humour to the mix and wishing the blondes a fun night… the way things were headed I am sure the English lads got exactly what they were looking for that night.
109 and I acquire new targets nearly instantly… two girls are standing next to the dance floor and we buy them Jack and Coke. After a brief chat-up, 109 decides to head to a strip club for his nightly fix and I consider that option too, but decide to pursue my prey, and the curly haired brunette, only average attractive but with a skinny body, drags me to the dance floor. We dance and eventually end up on the stage where I am now dancing on show, gyrating to the beat and having a blast… the girls love it and join me. Things get cloudy memory wise at some point and I remember both standing on the dance floor and pointing at girls while wailing Ricky Martin’s “She bangs, she bangs!” and then making out with the brunette in the hallway that leads outside, my hand creeping up her shirt for a grab of tit. I tell her “po-idyom” and we go to get our coats. At this point I am already checking the timeclock to put in my nightly shift of sexual service when suddenly something vaguely resembling the dyev union foreman, or some sort of wannabe KGB political officer shows up… her girlfriend.
Taking a look at her girlfriend’s grumpy face, I realise that my night is suddenly threatened and that I have an acute logistical problem. As we walk to the taxi I try to get them both back to the pad in my patented 2-for-1 option and while the brunette tugs on me and gives me a somewhat confused look and tries to kiss me, her girlfriend tugs her away, argues with her a bit and they both scurry off to a taxi and take off without even looking back, leaving me standing there on the sidewalk.
Curiously, I am only mildly disappointed and this is certainly not the first time I have gotten the last second rejection. I laugh under my breath, mutter “suki” and the taxi driver standing next to me laughs too, giving me a sympathetic shrug of the shoulders.
I decide to walk off my drink a bit and instead of taking a car, walk 5 minutes to the American Bar and Grill on Mayakovskaya, ordering a 4am plate of nachos and water. Honestly, at that moment a plate of nachos and a liter of water were BETTER THAN SEX! I walk the last 10 minutes home, stopping at a 24 hour kiosk to get juice, water and beer. I struggle home and before passing out, check to make sure I still have my passport, cash, both phones, watch and both kidneys. Vsyo normalna. Despite the odds, another wild Moscow night survived.

I attach a screen cap for price for November (36 euros one way). Very tempted to make a booking for Nov 15-20. Would you be in Moscow at these dates by any chance?
For buying tickets, you can do it by internet (best way), by phone (international number) or by going to the airport. For more details click here.

Posts: 166oh, and i forgot why i came here for. sheesh.
there's this strip club gryozy, which is one of the moscow's oldest; it recently reopened after being renovated for about a year.
to cut the long story short, stay away.
and if anyone wants the long story, here it is. the place is right next to the metro novoslobodskaya. the entrance is kind of crummy looking, little steps down. huge tacky sign with glittering lights above it. the ohrana look like they're about to mug you, then murder you and [CodeWord123] your dead body. as you walk into the place, you realize why the ohrana is so gloomy. they're the thin unshaved line between this world and the next. the place is overrun by nightmarish ghouls from the underworld.
the apparitions unsuccessfully try to pass themselves for human females; however they can be easily distinguished by horrible scars and foul smell. i wish i was kidding. just like at the horrible, yet infinitely better, safari lodge, the girls immediately proposition you for sex upon approaching. they can be had on the premises for an absolute bargain of $300, plus ? (i forget) thousand roubles for the room. that's per hour.
the club inexplicably presents itself as a high-class elite club, trying to compete with the likes of bely medved and dolls. however you can find better looking women at a tochka at 6:15 am on a tuesday night.
oh, and i completely forgot. the drinks are excessively expensive. i don't know if i got overcharged or whatever, i don't really care, but two rounds of a few drops of jack daniels on piles of ice, i paid 3,000 something roubles, plus "tip", i.e. 4,000 r. and when i gave some goblin a 100 r note just to get rid of her, she looked at me funny and said "that's all?"
uggh. i need to repress the memory of that place, fast. if anyone wants to join me at 911 vip for drinks tonight on my last night in moscow, i'll be the dashing young gentleman in a suit surrounded by sluts.

Posts: 81I was told by a girl at NF that NF management only allows girls that have documents to work there. Most tochka girls don't have documents therefore can't work there. I can't however comment on that NF girls being higher quality. I wasn't impressed by their looks. I find them to bit a little on the mature/older side.
She also told me that NF management prefers foreign clientile over Russians as Russian men tend to be rough and might get drunk and cause trouble at the club.

And making it at NF isn't that easy. Going in there as a working girl is different from going there as a client. Helena touched on that a little bit already, but basically security selects who can go in and who can't. A lot more girls want to work at NF than actually get to. Security keeps it what it is.
Basically, I'm not sure what you're trying to imply about my friends, but do you honestly think that they'd give up a nice income so easily and switch to crummy day jobs? They're all decent looking, but mostly in a homely girl-next-door way, not the dolled-up NF type of thing. Most of them speak very basic English.
In short, I'm sure you know that NF and CF are very different places. Not everyone who can make it at CF will make it at NF, and vice versa. That's elementary, Watson.

They want you to get in, get the broad, and get out. If you make it there late night when the selection is crummy, you'll get a discount just like anybody else. If you make it on a busy night at prime time, you may get charged 9,000 for a girl who'll go for 6,500 two hours later. That's got nothing to do with the color of your passport.

Posts: 927Well there you have it gentlemen, we should be ashamed of ourselves: "... men are becoming greedy and rude....."
We must try harder in the future, as I hope in my own case it is only a temporary lapse.
Helena,
I have flown Germanwings a number of times and cities and have been very satisfied with them as per GJ's post - not to/from Moscow though I would add. Very good planes and on-time record when I've flown them.
Your comment on the pricing is correct. The prices are not fixed and fluctuate depending upon ticket demand and length of time before before departure time. You will also find that the price of the ticket can be different on the same day - the more activity for a given flight/date the higher the price or lower in the case of low demand. That's how it works. If you book a flight several months ahead, it can be very very cheap. Internet is the way they use to book tickets. Also take note of the cancellation and change rules that can be very strict.

Hi.
Did you happen to buy tickets from them? They advertise a lot and ones I also wanted to buy their ticket, but when came on the site, the prices were different from those pointed in adverticement. And I didn't find the phone number and adress in Moscow. Do they have an office or work by internet only?
If someone had any experience with this company, please, whright. Thanks.

"And if they're so beautiful, then why can't they go to NF? " - That's not just the question of beauty. I used to work in NF for 3 years and business was good. But then unexpectedly security stopped let me in, as well as some other girls who used to go for a long time. The reason why was never explained. And some girls, beautiful, my friends, were never even admitted there. Club management somehow desides who is allowed to come and who is not. And noone understands the reasons. But I'm still in contact with some of NF girls and they also complain that now business goes worse than before and that men are becoming greedy and rude. Sometimes buseness goes down, and sometimes up. It happened many times before and there is nothing special about it.

Actually, that's a question i meant to aks for a long time.
In the tochkas, are there always different prices for locals and tourists?
When the mamachka has the polizi waiting around the corner, is that
only for tourists as well, or do they work that scam on locals too?

By the way the flight I'm buying from my Country to Vienna is 290 € with Austrian go to the site www.austrian.com or www.lufthansa.com. (safe you can buy with your CC and get an etix: electronic ticket).
The same is even for www.klm.com and www.airfrance.com where it is a little more expencive, around 350-450 €.
Of course all the prices are with all taxes and fees included (low cost have ususally hidden charges like 10 € fot ticket etc.)
