Aeroflot Airlines intends to increase the number of flights from Moscow to Arkhangelsk in the fall. Instead of the current three, it will make four flights a day. An evening flight will be added, reports our own correspondent Travel.ru.
From October 28, flights from Moscow (Sheremetyevo Airport) will depart at 0:05, 10:00, 15:45 and 16:20, arriving in Arkhangelsk at 2:00, 12:05, 17:50 and 20:20, respectively. Return flights will depart at 2:50, 13:00, 18:45 and 21:10, arriving in Moscow at 4:40, 15:00, 20:50 and 23:00.
From the same date, the Superjet 100 is planned to be used on all flights instead of the Airbus A320 currently flying on two flights – thus, the overall carrying capacity of the line will not change much. The minimum price for a one-way ticket is now 4,276 rubles. A similar increase was undertaken on the Moscow-Murmansk line a little earlier.
In addition, from October 28, Aeroflot will begin flights from Moscow on a dozen new routes – to Nalchik, Vladikavkaz, Nazran, Grozny, Makhachkala, Izhevsk, Ulyanovsk, Dublin, Ljubljana, Gothenburg, Colombo and Dubai's second airport. In addition, the company is considering the possibility of starting flights to the Dominican Republic, Mauritius and the Seychelles, as well as to Chengdu in China and resuming flights to Mumbai. Aeroflot will also increase the number of flights to Belgorod, Brussels, Lyon, Stuttgart, Bangkok and Phuket.

Let us recall that soon passengers of all Russian airlines may lose the guarantees of free transportation of briefcases, handbags, backpacks, outerwear, as well as baby food, medicine, canes, crutches and other items necessary for medical reasons. This is the draft order of the Ministry of Transport, prepared after the appeal to the ministry by the airline Pobeda, which demanded that passengers be deprived of all these guarantees. If the draft is approved, carriers will be able to limit passengers to only 5 kilograms of hand luggage, and the permissible dimensions of such luggage will be determined by the airlines themselves (Pobeda itself already uses a tiny “calibrator” measuring 36x30x27 centimeters for this, in which it is impossible to place many ordinary small city bags, as well as some mobile electronics - for example, some laptops).
