Air route to open between Armenia, Crimea
SIMFEROPOL. Oct 23
Grozny Avia airline will open a route from Simferopol-Yerevan on
November 16, Crimean Republic Transport Minister Anatoly Tsurkin told
Interfax on Thursday.
He said that it would be the second international route to open at the
Simferopol Airport after Crimea's reunification with Russia. In
contrast with charter flights between Simferopol and Istanbul, which
started in July, Simferopol-Yerevan tickets are sold by every booking
network.
"Booking started today, and the first tickets were sold," Tsurkin said.
According to the minister, flights will be weekly, on Sundays, and
departure from Simferopol is scheduled for 9 a.m. local time (the same
as Moscow time). The duration of the flight is 1 hour and 45 minutes.
Ukrainian airlines stopped flying to and from Crimea in connection
with Crimea's reunification with Russia in March of this year.
