Turkey ready to open regular flights to Russia from July 15

Turkey We are waiting for confirmation from the Russian side. The resumption of flights is being considered against the background of an improvement in the epidemiological situation with coronavirus infection.

Turkey is ready to open air links with Kazakhstan on June 20, with Ukraine and Belarus on July 1, and with the United States on September 1.

All those arriving in Turkey will undergo health checks. If symptoms of COVID-19 are detected, citizens will be tested for coronavirus.

Turkey has resumed international flights from Istanbul and Ankara to Germany, the UK and the Netherlands.

On June 7, the media reported that Rosaviatsia was ready to offer Rospotrebnadzor to allow international air traffic from July 15 with 15 countries, the list of which will be determined later. Later it became known about the instruction to both agencies until June 8 to analyze options for the resumption of flights abroad.

The Ministry of Transport considers it premature to appoint the date of opening flights abroad: first, it is necessary to gradually establish flights inside Russia in compliance with anti-epidemiological measures.

Russia has completely suspended international flights since April 4 due to the coronavirus pandemic. The exception is export flights, which return Russians to their homeland.

In May, Russian Prime Minister Mishustin asked fellow citizens not to plan trips abroad in the near future to exclude the possibility of importing coronavirus infection into the country.

The head of Rospotrebnadzor A. Popova reminded that upon returning to Russia from abroad, citizens will have to go through a 14-day quarantine at their own expense.
