The price increase for air tickets in the summer will be within the limits of inflation

So far, there is no reason for a sharp increase in the cost of air tickets, Sergey Alexandrovsky, CEO of Aeroflot, told reporters at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF-2025).

"In the period from January to April, an increase of 7% was recorded, but in the summer we expect an increase at the level of inflation," he said.

According to him, there is no significant growth in the industry as a whole this year.

Some adjustments may occur due to increased tariffs for airfield services. Much attention is paid to preferential programs.

"About 359,000 discounted tickets have been sold since December 23, when we were the first to implement this program for discounted tickets for children under 12 years of age with 50%," said the head of the airline.

240 thousand Russian children have already been transported.

People with illnesses are very limited in transportation due to the shortcomings of social services.

In December last year, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that airlines should stop the practice of underestimating the benefits of air tickets.
