RusLine Airlines Launches First Flights Between Mineralny Vody and Sukhum
On 3 June 2026, RusLine Airlines operated its inaugural flights on the international route between Mineralny Vody and Sukhum.
At both airports, the aircraft was welcomed with a traditional water arch salute, marking the launch of the new route.
The introduction of direct air service between Stavropol Krai and the Republic of Abkhazia improves transport connectivity between the two regions, supports the development of tourism and business ties, and creates new opportunities for comfortable travel.
Scheduled flights will operate twice weekly — on Wednesdays and Saturdays — on comfortable 50-seat Bombardier CRJ100/200 aircraft. Flight duration is just 55 minutes. Fares start from RUB 4,430 one way, inclusive of all airline charges. Seats are limited; agent service fees may apply.
