At least in some countries in Schengen area they check both passports on the outbound travel to Russia, e.g. in Narva, Estonia („You don’t seem to have Russian visa, do you have another passport?“)
However, you don’t have to be very smart and sophisticated to simply choose another route and use connection in Istanbul to avoid this check…

If "they" is the airline, then physically show them the Russian passport: they don't record this information, they only need to see it to confirm that they won't have to fly you back (for free?) to your departing location. If border control (again: by flying), simply saying "my flight is to the UK" works.

FYI in many places (not everywhere, rarely in Europe) border control will look at your boarding pass too.
- Aeolun 3y agoUsing the passport to book the ticket, and using the passport to go through immigration are completely distinct though. When travelling we can book with whatever passport, but we need to be more careful during immigration.
