Russia’s Utair has received approval for 14X-weekly Moscow-Berlin service.

Utair, which has bases at Moscow Vnukovo as well as at several airports in Western Siberia, is the fourth largest airline in Russia. From January-October 2016, it carried 5 million passengers, up 15.9% year-over-year.

Russia’s fourth largest airline Utair selected Volga-Dnepr Gulf, a UAE-based maintenance subsidiary of Volga-Dnepr Group, to provide maintenance services on its five Boeing 737 aircraft. Utair is considering developing an intricate network across the North Caucasian Federal District in Russia's extreme southwest. Airline management is currently in talks with local government officials to start flights which would initially connect Mineralnye Vody with Makhachkala with stopovers in Grozny, and Vladikavkaz.

Utair Aviation's airport hub is getting a new terminal

Roschino International Airport (TJM), the hub of Russian airlines, Utair Aviation, is having a new terminal building built by Novaport Holding, a transport company that deals with regional airports within Russia. The new terminal will be 17,000 sq m and will allow for a significant increase in passenger growth. Roschino International Airport had yearly passenger traffic of 1.8 million people in 2017, and with the new terminal, that number is expected to rise by nearly 20%, meaning the airport would handle 5 million passengers per year. 

The airport recently underwent a five-year reconstruction project that saw passenger traffic grow from 250 people per hour to 600 people per hour.  However, Novaport Holding felt that there's a demand to further expand the airport and bring even more traffic in with the arrival of a new terminal.
