‘Sverdlovsk Region Government and I support the actions of Ural Airlines. The thing is, this carrier is the only one on the large market that tackles the social responsibility of business,’ Governor Eduard Rossel announced at the press conference.

‘The planes of Ural Airlines perform flights to almost all possible destinations, including the ones that are not so profitable for them, whereas Moscow carriers, for instance, only choose the flights that yield good revenues,’ Mr Rossel said.

‘Ural Airlines manage to meet the needs of all of its potential clients as well as develop their business at the same time,’ he observed.
