Russia?s VIM Avia wins approval for Moscow-Manchester route | Airports & Routes content from ATWOnline
Russian authorities have approved VIM Avia to operate up to 7X-weekly services from Moscow to Manchester and Birmingham.
VIM Avia did not say when it plans to launch the flights or what type of aircraft it will use. According to Russia’s Federal Air Transport Agency, Rosaviatsia, it also approved VIM Avia to operate scheduled services on Kazan-Frankfurt, Moscow-Mumbai and Moscow-Amritsar routes.
EasyJet was the first carrier to establish direct scheduled Manchester-Moscow service in March 2013. EasyJet ceased this service in September 2015 due to economic turbulence in Russia. It also announced it will stop London-Moscow operations in March 2016. After that, only British Airways and Aeroflot Group will perform Moscow-London services after Russia’s Transaero declared bankruptcy last year.
