Pulkovo

Pulkovo Aviation Enterprise was an international Russian Airline based in St Petersburg - now renamed Rossiya after a merger with another carrier.

Pulkovo now called Rossiya

Whilst the recent merger of Pulkovo and Rossiya was a marriage enforced by Presidential decree, from a passenger perspective it has created a major new force in Russian aviation with strong hubs at both St Petersburg and Moscow, Vnukovo. Add this to the Government sponsored plans to upgrade the fleet with the addition of 20 new aircraft by 2010 and we reckon that many more westerners will be trying this airline before long.

Watch out for more aircraft with Rossiya’s striking livery at airports around the world.
