Russian airlines are asking the government to increase subsidies.

According to the aviation portal Avia.pro, Russian air carriers have asked the country's government to increase the amount of subsidies provided in connection with the increasing costs of air travel. It is noted that we are talking only about a few route air routes, in particular, according to available data, there is a need to increase subsidies to the Far East, in the direction of the Crimea and Kaliningrad.

There is speculation that the government may actually increase the amount of subsidies to a number of domestic carriers, but given the fact that in the direction of the Crimean peninsula ridership and so is large enough, likely to increase in benefits can only touch of the Far East.
