/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Extending the geography of its flights, Armavia
Air Company presented Yerevan-Tel-Aviv-Yerevan flight on March 28.
According to Mikhail Baghdassarov, the company President, the regular
flight will allow promoting contacts between the two countries and
will rather ease Armenian citizens’ trips to Israel. At the same
time, Mikhail Baghdassarov expressed hope that Armenia’s cultural
and historical spots will be of keen interest for Israelis.
Edgar Karapetyan, the company’s Commercial Director, noted that the
flights will be conducted twice a week, on Thursdays and Sundays,
by A320 and A319 aircrafts. The tickets will cost 350 euros in
both directions. The flight will last up to 2 hours, which will
significantly save passengers’ time, as previously they had to fly
from Tbilisi.
Armavia’s first plane left Yerevan for Tel-Aviv with more than 60
passengers on board, the Company’s press office reported.
Armavia Company is Armenia’s national air carrier, which fully complies
with the international requirements of IATA. Currently, Armavia
conducts over 340 flights per month to 35 destinations in 20 countries.
