Aeroflot to Double Number of Flights from Moscow to Kemerovo

Aeroflot Airlines intends to double the number of flights from Moscow to Kemerovo. From October 28, it plans to fly this route twice a day. A daytime flight will be added to the existing night flight, Travel.ru's own correspondent reports.

From October 28, flights from Moscow (Sheremetyevo Airport) at 11.25 and 21.20, arrival in Kemerovo at 19.05 and 5.45 respectively. Return departures at 6.55 and 20.55, arrival in Moscow at 7.25 and 21.25.

The new daytime flight is planned on an Airbus A320 aircraft. The existing nighttime flight is planned to be operated on a more capacious Airbus A321 instead of the Boeing 737 currently in use.

Let us remind you that Nordwind Airlines also intends to open flights to Kemerovo from October 28.

In addition, from October 28, Aeroflot will begin flights from Moscow on a dozen new routes - to Nalchik, Vladikavkaz, Nazran, Grozny, Makhachkala, Izhevsk, Ulyanovsk, Dublin, Ljubljana, Gothenburg, Colombo and Dubai's second airport. In addition, the company is considering the possibility of starting flights to Mauritius and the Seychelles, as well as to Chengdu in China, Nha Trang in Vietnam and resuming flights to Mumbai. Aeroflot will also increase the number of flights to St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg, Ufa, Belgorod, Volgograd, Arkhangelsk, Brussels, Lyon, Stuttgart, Bangkok and Phuket, and will sharply reduce the number of flights to Chisinau for the winter.

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).
