“Also, there will be an additional flight by RusLine, but it will not be subsidized,” he explained, adding that the pricing is still under review.

Answering the questions about the reasons why tickets on January flights to St. Petersburg are currently unavailable, Yuri Oskolkov explained they are resolving certain technical issues.

“These flights fall into the regional transportation subsidizing program, and Rosaviatsiya must confirm the list of routes. In the nearest future – by the 20th – the list of routes will be confirmed, and the tickets will be available for sale,” elaborated the director of the Penza airport.

Currently, the flights from Penza to St. Petersburg are held every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.
