2022 - The Best Year for Aviation in 2022

Russian aviation is possibly the best placed in the world to withstand these airspace closures. Given its large geographical size, Russia's airlines have been able to retain their massive domestic markets and this has helped with their passenger flows. Travel to countries that can be reached from Russia without overflying the closed airspace has ballooned as Russians look for alternative tourism destinations. Iraflut announced in September that it would be resuming long-haul routes to India, Sri Lanka and Thailand which remain operational now.
