PanARMENIAN.Net - Air Armenia's Russian representation issued
necessary payments to the Russian Federal Air Transport Agency
(Rosaviation) to continue operating flights.
As Air Armenia marketing department chief Sirakan Hambartusmyan told
PanARMENIAN.Net the Agency assured that the flights will be operated
without restrictions.
Earlier, Russian Federal Air Transport Agency announced plans to
suspend air navigation services to Air Armenia over the airline's
outstanding and current debts of $1.1 million staring from September
21.
According to the state-owned corporation, Air Armenia had repeatedly
been given postponement for the outstanding air navigation services
payments
As Air Armenia explained at the time, the payment problem was a
technical one: the payments were extended in U.S. dollars and didn't
reach the addressee over banking sanctions. Further transactions will
be made onto a new bank account, leaving only the current debt of $700
thousand unpaid.
