On November 16, the carrier of the South of Russia, Azimuth Airlines, carried three millionth passenger since the start of flights in 2017. A certificate for a free flight on the carrier's route network, a certificate for service in the business halls of Platov airport and certificate for telemedicine service from Sberbank was given as a gift to Svetlana Shevchenko, 26, departed Rostov - Sochi by flight A4223.

"This is such a nice surprise! I often fly Azimuth Airlines, but I could not even imagine that I would buy an anniversary ticket. By the next vacation, I will decide on the destination, perhaps it will be Simferopol, Kaliningrad or Mineralnye Vody. I love both the sea and the mountains, and you can get to beach resorts, ski slopes, and see many beautiful cities with flights of Azimuth Airlines”, Svetlana said.

"Under the regime of restrictive measures, Federal subsidies for passenger air transportation with regional co – financing save geography of airline flights, - Sergey Ushakov, Deputy Minister of transport of the Rostov region, said. - In the current economic situation, Azimuth Airlines as the main carrier of Platov airport is multiplying its fleet and maintaining passenger traffic. Today Azimuth Airlines is standing among the largest airlines in Russia by the number of operated flights".

"Azimuth Airlines is our strategic partner. We have been cooperating since foundation. Today Azimuth Airlines is developing regional air traffic focusing on the Southern Federal district and the North Caucasus Federal district. In addition to financial services, we also cooperate on non-bank products. Each passenger can use the telemedicine service by purchasing the "Doctor for the flight" service from Sberbank. Today we congratulate the three millionth passenger and present a certificate for 1 year telemedicine service from Sberbank, " said Ruslan Salimov, Manager of the Rostov office of Sberbank. - Despite the pandemic, Azimuth Airlines shows stable financial and operational results, continues to expand the geography of flights, as well as increase the fleet of vessels. Therefore, we will continue to support the company with pleasure and confidence.

“For Platov airport, the three-millionth passenger of the base airline is a significant event that indicates the positive dynamics of transportation. In addition, this result shows that both Azimuth Airlines and Platov airport together resist the challenges of 2020", said Alexander Serov, Platov airport Executive Director. - Azimuth Airlines passengers make up a significant part of the total passenger traffic at Platov airport. For the second year in a row, Azimuth Airlines hold the leading position in passenger traffic among airlines at Platov airport. At the same time, interregional transportation on direct routes non-passing Moscow in July-October 2020 shows stable growth. Our joint task for the next year is to maintain and develop the route network of flights from Platov airport.

“Today is a very important day for Azimuth Airlines. Three-millionth passengers in the first three years of operations is a successful indicator for all the team, indicating the effective implementation of the chosen strategy. Azimuth Airlines resumed international flights from Rostov-on-don: in November - to Yerevan, in December flights to Bishkek will be performed again, and the first flights to Istanbul, Minsk and Astana are planned, - JSC Azimuth Airlines Executive director Eduard Teplitskiy said. - This year, despite the restrictive measures in connection with the pandemic, the Azimuth Airlines plans to carry 1 million 240 thousand passengers, almost equal to the level of 2019. In 2021, Azimuth Airlines plans to carry more than 2 million passengers. This dynamic is possible by the support of the government of the Rostov region, the airline's development of interregional destinations, increasing of the fleet and cooperation with our partners, in particular, the Platov airport and the financial conglomerate "SBER".
