About US

Ural Airlines is among the TOP largest Russian airlines. Regular passengers appreciate that the company is working to improve service, renewing its air fleet and every year opening new routes for flights to cities in Russia, the CIS and foreign countries. The geography of flights already includes more than 200 destinations and this is not the limit for us.

History

JSC "Ural Airlines" originated from Sverdlovsk United Aviation Division, which had been established based on Sverdlovsk Koltsovo Airport back in 1943. The brand URAL AIRLINES exists since 1993, and by 2006 the airline has carried over 1 000 000 passengers. All our flights were operating on Russian aircraft.

Since 2006, the company has focused on the aviation and maintenance bases development. At that time the air fleet renewal program was launched: the aircraft An-24, Tu-134, Tu-156 and Il-86 were replaced by Airbus A320 Family. In 2012, the company opened its own Simulator Center for Airbus 320 pilots.

Aircraft Fleet

Ural Airlines operates 51 Airbus airliners (14 Airbus A321, 22 Airbus A320, 4 Airbus A319, 3 Airbus A320neo, 8 Airbus A321neo) under operating lease conditions. The airline does not ignore existing aircraft. They undergo regular inspections, checks and maintenance.
