ArmInfo. The prices for maintenance of aircrafts and service of air
passengers in "Zvartnots" Yerevan airport are the highest in the
region, the preliminary data of competitiveness of Armenia's air
transport, carried out by experts of USAID programme "Competitive
Armenian Private Sector" (CAPS) testify this.
As CAPS consultant for Politics and Law Arsen Nazaryan told journalists
today, the surveys were carried out in April-May, 2007, and 12
countries were selected for comparative analysis. He said that the
expenses for maintenance of one "Boeing" or "Airbus" aircraft in
"Zvartnots" airport total $4 thsd, which may be compared only with the
expenses in Baku airport. He also said that these expenses in Vienna
make up $5,6 thsd, in Tbilisi - about $2 thsd, in Moscow "Domodedovo"
airport - about $1 thsd. Service of air passengers in "Zvartnots"
airport is also the most expensive. As A. Nazaryan said, the expenses
per one passenger in Yerevan total about $60, while those in Vienna are
equal to $30-35, in Baku - $50, in Tbilisi - $30, in Istanbul - $15, in
Moscow - about $20.
The consultant also said that almost half of the passenger carriage
market in Armenia falls on the national carrier, the "Armavia" Company,
followed by "Siberia Airlines" and "Aeroflot" - 11% each, "Ural
Airlines" and "Austrian Airlines" - 4% each. Moscow (40%) is the main
direction of flights from Armenia, that indicates a great
centralization. Prague (9%) and Paris (5%) are the next, and the rest
46% of directions have been distributed among 34 countries. The flights
to Moscow are served by four air companies. 91% of regular flights from
Armenia and back is carried out over the air space of Europe, only 5% -
over Near East and only 4% - over Asia.
