Aeroflot plans to double the frequency of flights from Moscow to Stuttgart this fall. Instead of the current once-daily service, the route will be served twice. A late-evening flight will be added to the existing morning flight, according to a Travel.ru correspondent.
From October 28, flights from Moscow (Sheremetyevo Airport) will depart at 9:30 and 19:45, arriving in Stuttgart at 10:55 and 21:10. Return flights will depart at 12:05 and 22:30, arriving in Moscow at 17:15 and 3:40. The morning flight will continue to be operated by the Airbus A321, and the evening flight will be operated by the smaller Airbus A320.
As a reminder, Aeroflot will launch flights to Nalchik, Vladikavkaz, Grozny, Makhachkala, Dublin, Ljubljana, Gothenburg, Colombo, and Dubai's second airport on the same date. Nazran and Izhevsk are also expected to be added to its route network.
Let us recall that soon passengers of all Russian airlines may lose the guarantees of free transportation of briefcases, handbags, backpacks, outerwear, as well as baby food, medicine, canes, crutches and other items necessary for medical reasons. This is the draft order of the Ministry of Transport, prepared after the appeal to the ministry by the airline Pobeda, which demanded that passengers be deprived of all these guarantees. If the draft is approved, carriers will be able to limit passengers to only 5 kilograms of hand luggage, and the permissible dimensions of such luggage will be determined by the airlines themselves (Pobeda itself already uses a tiny “calibrator” measuring 36x30x27 centimeters for this, in which it is impossible to place many ordinary small city bags, as well as some mobile electronics - for example, some laptops).
