Aviation And Russia

Russia is one of the most attractive emerging markets of the world and is observing strong growth in investment and infrastructure. The boom in Russian economy has not only resulted in an increase in disposal income of the people in the country, but has also spurred up demand for air travel. Today, more and more people from all across the world are flying to Russian destinations for business and tourism. Further, the increasing disposal income of Russian consumers has resulted in significant proportion of people traveling outside the country via air. This phenomenon has resulted in an attractive business opportunity for airline companies operating in this route. The investment done by the government in the tourism sector is also increasing. As the tourism infrastructure is getting better, more and more people are visiting the country as tourists. The hotel and hospitality is also expanding at a rapid pace. According to a recent prediction by experts, Russian tourism will flourish at twice the rate of that of the European Union. Within the next couple of years, the scenario will be more visible. To capitalize on this business opportunity, several airlines have lined up to provide services to tourists and business travelers in this region. One such company is Baltia Air Lines. Baltia Air Lines, Inc. is a new start up which has big plans for the future in this sector. The company plans to provide non-stop flights to the former capital cities of the Soviet Union from America. As a passenger, I think this is a very good move by this company. There are no direct flights to St. Petersburg, Russia from the U.S. Currently, you have to take a flight with connections to get to St. Petersburg. Therefore, one needs to spend a minimum of 12 hours in flying to St. Petersburg. Baltias non-stop service from New York to St. Petersburg will take just 8 hours. The traveler will save the hassles of connecting and changing planes. Now, you can get into plane in U.S. and get off in different destinations in Russia. Isnt it a good thing for me as a passenger? I was hoping for a direct and less time consuming flight to St. Petersburg and Baltia will make my dream a reality. Baltias fares will be competitively priced and the service will be world class. These are two of the biggest advantages of flying on Baltia Air Lines. So choose wisely and check out the deal yourself before you trust my words. Take a look at Baltias web site, www.baltia.com
