This decision allows us not only to fulfill the needs of our travelers for this summer holiday season, but also to manage risks to ensure the percentage of flight regularity as high as possible. Reinforced attention to aviation is already showing results - in August, in all our markets we had 5 times fewer flights with a delay of more than 3 hours compared to May - July results" - says Vitalij Rakovski, head of “Novaturas” group.
