The statement of Turkish Airlines of intent to resume flights to Russia from August 1, does not mean that the links will open. This was stated by Executive Director of the Association of tour operators of Russia (ATOR) Maya Lomidze online briefing at the site of the “National news service”. “I remind you that Turkish Airlines in June announced that flights from Russia to Turkey in July. Was active selling of the tickets. Just recently all July flights were rescheduled for August,” — said Lomidze. According to her, there is no information about any interstate agreements on the opening of direct flights, and Turkey is not even mentioned in the list of countries of the CPS, which conform to safety requirements. “It’s hard to argue that the August departures of Turkish Airlines relevant and they will be held. The airline has the right to announce the sale of flights, there is nothing illegal, tourists will still get your flights on the basis of the existing ticket, but only after it will be opened to international flights,” — said Lomidze. She noted that the date of the opening of the international flights, in particular with Turkey is still unclear. Earlier, on the website of the airline, it was reported: “After several years’ absence, we return to heaven.” There’s also the proposed “flexibility to travel”. Thus, choosing Russia as the destination indicate that from August 1 the company will make flights in six Russian cities: Moscow, Petersburg, Sochi, Krasnodar, Kazan and Rostov-on-don.
