Armavia Drops Krasnador Service

Armenian carrier Armavia is to suspend its own flights between Yerevan and the Russian city of Krasnodar from the end of this month but will continue to serve the route under a codeshare arrangement with Kuban Airlines. The Independent Russian carrier is based at Krasnodar and offers a variety of domestic and international links from the city, which could provide additional feed into these flights. Approximately 49,000 O&D passengers utilised the route in the year ending January 2011, with more than half using Armavia’s flights.
