Belavia Presented With Ultimatum On Flights To Russia

Rosaviatsia wants an important concession.

The Federal Air Transport Agency is considering lifting all restrictions on Belavia flights to Russia, says Kommersant.

The airlines believe that strengthening of the Belarusian competitor's presence is possible only under the same conditions for Russian companies.

The only benefit for Russian companies in the industry is considered to be increased traffic from the regions to Minsk for transfers to Georgia, although the main flow from Moscow and St. Petersburg will still fly through Yerevan.
