The airline becomes the latest to give Gatwick a chance in terms of such flights, especially with the enhanced connectivity seen into Central London in recent years.

Such expansion has been on the eyes of the carrier for quite some time now, having made moves like it’s new Beijing services for example.

What has also been observed, particularly in Europe and the Middle East, is that services into the CIS region are receiving significant demand.
