The Russian government has proposed adding up to 1,000 rubles to the cost of each airline ticket to support aircraft production. International flights will be charged a fee of 1,000 rubles, while domestic flights will be 500 rubles. The fee can be introduced as early as 2027. As Kommersant previously wrote, part of the money will be sent to the leasing companies to cover the difference between the cost of the planes and the preferred price for their supply to the airlines, and the other part will go to the airlines themselves to compensate for the high cost of operating the planes.
