AtlasGlobal Airlines plans to launch flights from Istanbul to Moscow this fall. The carrier plans to operate daily flights starting September 25, according to Travel.ru.
Departure from Istanbul (Ataturk Airport) at 9:30, arrival in Moscow (Sheremetyevo Airport, Terminal E) at 12:30. Return departure is at 4:00 PM, arriving in Istanbul at 7:00 PM. Starting October 29, the schedule will change: departure from Istanbul at 12:30 PM, arriving in Moscow at 3:30 PM. Return departure is at 5:00 PM, arriving in Istanbul at 8:00 PM. The route uses an Airbus A321 aircraft.
The minimum price for a one-way ticket is €78, while a round-trip ticket costs €136. The fare includes 30 kilograms of baggage. Prices from travel agents may be lower.
As a reminder, Atlas Global became the third Turkish carrier on this route, following Turkish Airlines and Pegasus Airlines (not counting Onurair, which flies to Zhukovsky). Aeroflot is currently the only Russian carrier operating on this route; as a result of some very strange actions by the Federal Air Transport Agency (Rosaviatsiya), its subsidiary Pobeda received the second assignment a month ago, and the third is expected to take place soon.
