Among them is a significant increase in the cost of aviation fuel - at least 30% in 2018. The second important factor is the growth of airport fees due to the implementation of large-scale investment programs by airport operators aimed at reconstructing terminals, improving airport infrastructure and improving the quality of passenger service,&quot; the airline explained.<\/p>\n<p>\nAt the same time, the carrier&#039;s press service emphasized that since AZUR air sees its mission as providing tourists with not only safe, but also budget flights to world resorts, a significant increase in transportation prices is unacceptable. &quot;Reducing meals on short flights in economy class will at least keep the cost of the service at the same level, and, given favorable macroeconomic factors, will lead to a decrease in the cost of transportation,&quot; the airline reported.<\/p>\n<p>\nIt should be noted that when departing from St. Petersburg, the airline offers the service of additional food ordering &quot;Restaurant on board&quot;, which is relatively new in the category of services provided by Russian airlines. A similar service for departures from the base airport Vnukovo is currently under development, and its implementation is planned for the current summer season.<\/p>\n<p>\nIn turn, the airline leaves the provision of standard meals on flights lasting more than 5 hours unchanged.<\/p>\n<p>\nLet us recall that earlier it became known that during the May holidays AZUR air transported almost twice as many passengers as last year.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.trn-news.ru\/news\/90799\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">trn-news.ru<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Starting June 1, AZUR Air will no longer provide meals on flights shorter than 5 hours.
