KrasAir is the leader of the Russian AirUnion alliance of airlines, which includes Domodedovo Airlines, Samara Airlines, Omskavia, and Sibaviatrans, plus has recently acquired Malev of Hungary. In its own right KrasAir has a large network of Russian domestic services as well as serving many international destinations. Within Russia destinations served include Barnaul, Baykit, Blagoveshchensk, Bratsk, Chita, Igarka, Irkutsk, Kemerovo, Khabarovsk, Komsomolsk-na-Amure, Krasnodar, Krasnoyarsk, Mineralnye Vody, Moscow (Domodedovo), Novosibirsk, Norilsk, Omsk, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Podkamennaya Tunguska, Rostov-on-Don, Samara, Severo-Yeniseysk, Sochi, St. Petersburg, Tomsk, Tura, Turukhansk, Ulan-Ude, Vladivostok, Yakutsk, Yekaterinburg and Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk. Internationally the following cities are served: Almaty, Bishkek, Dushanbe, Khujand, Tashkent, Beijing, Yerevan, Baku, Vienna, Frankfurt, Hanover, Stuttgart, Athens, Podgorica and Lisbon.

KrasAir is a very dynamic and ambitious Russian airline run by the two Abramovich Brothers (no relation to the one who owns Chelsea Football Club in London). Their recent acquisition of Malev points to more international developments in the future and we expect the AirUnion brand to become more and more evident throughout the West over the next decade. Much of the expansion has been funded by the EBRD (European Bank of Reconstruction and Development) and from a passenger perspective their aggressive pricing makes them worth considering - even on indirect routings across Russia.
