YEREVAN. - The Russian airliner “Sukhoi Superjet” will arrive in Armenia on April 19 without delays, Spokeswoman for Armavia Air Company Nana Avetisova told Armenian News-NEWS.am.

According to her, “Sukhoi Superjet” is designed to carry out short distance flights.

“It is already agreed that the new aircraft will make flights to Moscow, St. Petersburg, Sochi and cities of Ukraine,” she said.

Asked on the price for the new aircraft, Avetisova said that it is a commercial issue.

“I can say that the liner is designed for 98 passengers. Moreover, Armenia is the only country in the region with `Sukhoi Superjet-100’,” she noted.

The leadership of Russia’s Aeroflot is going to offer the Russian government to fine the company for violation of terms of receiving the aircraft.
