The reduction in the number of airlines flying from Russia abroad has led to a sharp rise in flight prices. At the same time, analysts’ assessments of the cost of tickets within the country are also disappointing and even frightening, Turkish media quoted Russian experts as saying.
In the published analysis, VTB Capital gave a terrible forecast: in 2022 the cost of domestic tickets will increase 1.5 times – this is immediately plus 50% to last year’s price tags. Accordingly, the average ticket price will increase from 9 thousand rubles to 14 thousand rubles.
Transport Minister Vitaliy Savelyev agreed with this view of the situation and said that prices for flights would increase, but did not announce the rate. According to the authors of the monitoring, the overall growth hides the increase in fuel costs, which is 1/3 of the costs of airlines, and leasing.
“The weakening of the ruble will increase the price of leasing by 1.5 times – this is another 1/3 of all costs, as most aircraft are leased abroad,” – said analysts.
