On board the aircraft Maria ReshetnikovaAt the beginning of this week, July 18, the news agencies began to spread out reports that the passenger liner, who flew from Tyumen to Sochi, could not get to the destination and returned to the airport. The reason is the refusal of one of the engines. As a result, the liner sat down safely, having developed all the fuel. It turned out that the board belonged to Red Wings. The passengers of the aircraft subsequently complained in social networks that the board was shaking, he looked far from new and very hard landed.
After only three days, a similar incident occurred with the airline “Russia”. He flew from Krasnodar to Moscow on one (!) Engine due to a technical malfunction. The mistake, as it turned out, was made by techniques that span out one of the screws loosely when refueling the side with oil.
Such incidents, it would seem, became part of the everyday news picture. However, what was followed later.
Five days later, July 23, the new message - passengers of the Simferopol -Chelyabinsk flight Red Wings were able to fly to the city only after 19.5 hours. The flight, which was supposed to fly from Crimea on Friday, at 20:40 Moscow time, left the peninsula only at 16:08 Moscow time Saturday. On Saturday, a flight to Moscow was delayed for 4 hours, which was supposed to fly out at 4:25, for 15 hours the flight was detained to Rostov-on-Don, which was supposed to fly out at 7:00. On Sunday, they moved a flight to Moscow, which should fly out of Simferopol on July 23 at 12:40, and the evening flight to Voronezh was moved on Sunday morning.
Tourists cannot fly out on vacation. Starting from July 22 at the Chelyabinsk airport, the Red Wings flight passengers for almost a day waited for the aircraft, as he was broken and stood for repairs in Perm.
The hostages of the flight delay were children. So, on the flight WZ -308 Simferopol - Moscow could not fly away the children's section of sambo "Rostock". The flight is delayed for more than a day. 67 children, together with the coaches, are at the airport, the company does not provide them with any explanation in connection with the delay. Some passengers managed to buy flights from other AIA carriers and fly home.
The press itself confirmed that Red Wings has broken a plane. The carrier is planned to be on the normal schedule on July 26. The airlines want to use a back -up side for transportation.
Starting from July 19, the Passengers of VIM-Avia are experiencing similar problems. At first, at the airport of St. Petersburg, 440 passengers of the airline following Bulgaria stuck for almost a day for almost a day. The next day, the carrier abolished six flights from Simferopol to Moscow at once. On the same day, Vim-Avia received a warning from the Federal Air Transport Agency. The carrier was given a week to eliminate problems in flights, otherwise they threatened to leave without charters. However, in the following days, the abolition of flights continued, which, in particular, greatly hit the tourist flow from the Crimea. The airline began to put into operation the wide -body Boeing. It turned out that the Federal Air Transport Agency issued the Wim -Avia warning in early July - then it was noticed that the company allows daily flights of flights, updates the planes and releases faulty vessels into the sky. Whether a similar warning will be directed by Red Wings. It is still unclear.
Tourists, meanwhile, share their impressions of a spoiled vacation on the network.
