Ural Airlines came up with a performance report for the first half of 2008. The carrier rendered its services to 640,125 passengers in January-June 2008 (which is 25% better than a year earlier). Almost a third of these customers (191,760 people) used the airline in June 2008, which exceeds the figures for last June by 40%.
The airline’s aircraft operated 5,739 flights in January-June 2008, which was 18%, or 877 flights better than a year earlier and included 1,735 international flights (56% more than in January-June 2007), 3,439 domestic flights (6% more than in January-June 2007), and 504 flights within the CIS (24% more than in January-June 2007).
625 international flights, 700 domestic flights, and 110 flights within the CIS were operated by the company in June 2008. This was, respectively, 81% more, 5% less, and 41% more than in June 2007. 1,446 flights were operated in June 2008 altogether, exceeding the figures for a year earlier by 21%. Experts believe the increase in the number of flights can be explained by the company’s long-term fleet renovation program. For one, Ural Airlines can boast five modern and comfortable A 320 planes as well as some aircraft made in Russia.
