New Flights from Russia in 2025

We are always happy when new destinations are added to the flight map: it means there will be more options for a great vacation! Especially when it comes to direct flights. After all, it's clear that you can get anywhere with transfers. But sometimes you just want the simple human pleasure of boarding a plane and disembarking in the hot climate of some distant tropical country.

Where it became easier to fly

Vietnam

The year 2025 delights us with new flights to Nha Trang, not only from Moscow, but also from other Russian cities. Among the lucky ones are residents of Barnaul, Blagoveshchensk, Vladivostok, Irkutsk, Krasnoyarsk, Novokuznetsk, Novosibirsk, Tomsk, and Khabarovsk. Flights are operated by IrAero Airlines and Azur Air.

This is great news, as Nha Trang offers tourists luxurious long beaches and spa resorts with healing muds and mineral water. Among the cool things: diving centers all along the coast, a gentle sea entry, Vinpearl Land amusement park on a separate island accessible by cable car, and countless cafes and restaurants where you can always find pho soup. We talked in detail about what to see in Nha Trang here.

China

The second region with new direct flights is also in Asia, and it's the Chinese island of Hainan. To find cheap tickets, remember the key city and airport name – Sanya. Direct flights from Kazan, St. Petersburg and Ufa are operated by Aeroflot.

Hainan is an excellent option for a vacation. Not only for residents of Siberia and the Far East, who will only have to spend 6-6.5 hours in the air instead of 9-10, but in general. Firstly, it has beautiful nature, secondly, warm sea, and thirdly, the sun shines almost 300 days a year. In between swimming and relaxing on the beach, you can visit Phoenix Island with its yacht club and amusement park. Or go to the Guanyin statue or walk across the glass bridge in the Yanoda tropical rainforest.

Oman

Direct flights between cities in Russia and Oman were planned, but so far we have only found such flights between the capitals: from Moscow to Muscat can be reached in just 6 hours thanks to Oman Air.

Russians do not need a visa to travel to Oman – this is already a significant plus. Moreover, the country is actively developing tourism, so you have a chance to be the first among your friends with photos and impressions from an unconventional vacation destination. Here, Arab authenticity and a high standard of living are interestingly combined with picturesque mountains and magnificent beaches.

UAE

“There can never be too many flights to the Emirates!” – Pobeda decided and added another one, this time from Makhachkala to Abu Dhabi. Just 3.5 hours, and you're there!

If you've already explored Dubai inside and out, it's time to visit the capital of the UAE. Skyscrapers, shopping malls, water parks, restaurants for every taste – all of this is also abundant here.

Turkey

For summer 2025, you can already buy Ufa – Istanbul tickets. From June 1 to September 28, Utair will fly there on Sundays.

Belarus

And Pobeda is back in touch. Everyone who wants to see Minsk this summer is in luck. The low-cost carrier is resuming flights from Moscow and St. Petersburg to the capital of Belarus. And with our blog, you always know what to see in Minsk.

Russia

However, domestic tourism is not standing still either. Aeroflot switched to its summer schedule at the end of March and added flights Moscow – Ulan-Ude, St. Petersburg – Gorno-Altaysk. Rossiya Airlines offers residents of Tomsk to travel to Sochi in summer 2025, fly from Kaliningrad to Apatity, and from Krasnoyarsk – to Samara. Nordwind Airlines, together with Ikar Airlines, launched direct regular flights to the Baltic and Black Seas: tickets for Volgograd – Sochi and Volgograd – Kaliningrad went on sale in early April.
