Aeroflot plans to launch flights from Moscow to Verona and Naples this summer. Both routes will open on July 1 and will operate daily, according to Travel.ru.
On the Verona route, departure from Moscow (Sheremetyevo Airport) is at 7:35, arrival in Verona at 10:00. Return departure at 11:10, arrival in Moscow at 15:30. On the Naples route, departure from Moscow is at 8:10, arriving in Naples at 11:00. Return departure is at 12:00, arrival in Moscow at 16:30.
The routes will use an Airbus A320 aircraft. Prices are currently quite high, starting at 20,028 rubles roundtrip to Verona and 20,357 rubles to Naples. These prices may be reduced closer to summer. The company will also increase the number of Moscow-Bologna flights this summer.
As a reminder, Aeroflot recently significantly tightened its carry-on baggage requirements. The company has removed cell phones, laptops, cameras, camcorders, umbrellas, file folders, and printed publications for in-flight reading from the list of absolutely free items. Furthermore, purchases from Duty Free stores are limited to one sealed bag, and the free backpack, previously unlimited in size, must now weigh no more than 5 kilograms and no more than 80 centimeters in the sum of its three dimensions. A briefcase or handbag with no size or weight restrictions (or the backpack described above) remains on the list of free items, as well as outerwear, a suit in a garment bag, and a bouquet of flowers. A number of medically necessary items are also carried free of charge. Furthermore, the carrier has begun to control the dimensions of regular carry-on baggage, requiring it to not exceed 55 x 40 x 20 centimeters (which excludes most popular small wheeled bags) and a weight of no more than 10 kilograms.
When buying any tickets on the Aeroflot website (as well as almost all other Russian carriers), you should keep in mind that the airline includes insurance in the ticket by default. This practice, prohibited in the EU countries, can lead to a loss of 400 rubles on each ticket. To avoid becoming a victim of an insurance trick, in most cases you need to click on the "in order" field on the insurance services selection page during the ticket booking process.
If a passenger has nevertheless fallen into a trap and paid for unnecessary insurance, it can still be cancelled. In this case, before the start of the flight, you should notify the airline about the cancellation of the insurance service and demand a refund for the insurance.
