Russia’s Dobrolyot has valid air operator certificate despite suspension of flights
This low-cost airline, is 100-percent subsidiary of Russia’s biggest air carrier Aeroflot
MOSCOW, August 05. /ITAR-TASS/. Russia’s Dobrolyot air carrier, which has suspended its flight over the EU’s sanctions, has a valid air operator certificate, Russia’s Federal Air Transport Agency said on Tuesday.
The statement on the commercial air operator certificate was dated August 5.
Dobrolyot had to suspend its flight from August 4 after a number of its European contractors terminated their liabilities under lease, technical maintenance and insurance and aero-navigation contracts over the European Union’s economic sanctions against Russia.
Dobrolyot, a low-cost airline, is 100-percent subsidiary of Russia’s biggest air carrier Aeroflot. Its fleet includes two Boeings 737-800 NG and one Sukhoi Superjet-100. By the end of 2014, the company planned to add six more Boeings to its fleet. Both of its Boeings are leased from BBAM Aircraft Leasing and Management.
