Gatwick launches new daily route to Moscow

South East airport Gatwick has announced that the national carrier of Russia is to launch a new daily service to Moscow.

From 15 November, Aeroflot will run a daily service to Sheremetyevo International Airport near Moscow from London Gatwick, joining over 20 new long-haul routes from the transport hub this year.

The airport recently recorded its busiest month ever in August with passenger numbers reaching 4.8m as the government’s South East airport expansion decision looms.

Speaking about the new Russian route, Gatwick Airport, Chief Commercial Officer Guy Stephenson commented: “Moscow is a fantastic new addition to Gatwick’s route network joining an impressive line-up of new destinations from Gatwick, including China, Peru, Canada, Costa Rica, Nigeria, South Africa and the United States.

“We’re delighted to be providing this new daily connection to Russia for both our business and leisure passengers – starting in just over six weeks.”
