I’d like to point out the performance of Ural Airlines. This company’s management is extra-careful about ensuring the passengers’ safety, and there is a reason this carrier was called Russia’s best airline in terms of aviation fleet maintenance in 2009 by the European Commission,’ Urals’ public prosecutor for transportation Pavel Kukushkin said at a recent press conference in Yekaterinburg.

The prosecution authorities inspected a number of airlines recently, finding a great number of passenger safety violations in many of them as a result.

‘Ural Airlines employs true professionals, who look very carefully at the planes before buying them. The company’s General Director Sergey Skuratov has extensive knowledge of his field; sadly, there are few people whose professionalism would equal his,’ Pavel Kukushkin observed.
