Ural Airlines switched to its winter timetable on October 28, 2007; this timetable will be valid through March 29, 2008. The airline’s press officer reports the winter timetable provides for more flights to most popular destinations; for one, Yekaterinburg-Moscow flights will be performed four to five times a day compared to only three times a day in the summer. On the other hand, fewer flights will be operated to the south of Russia (that is, places like Sochi and Mineralniye Vody).Unlike last winter, the carrier will also be offering flights to Vladivostok, Irkutsk, Surgut, Gyumri, Kulyaba, and Krasnodar.

The company’s Commercial Director Kirill Skuratov says they expect a 20% increase in the passenger turnover due to more flights made available this winter.
