Russians are unable to afford even budget airlines and due to significant reduction of travellers in the recent months Easyjet has decided to cancel its flights between Moscow and London.

The airline has decided to cut the number of flights by half this summer. There are various factors that have influenced this sudden reduction, the weakness of the Russian currency; “macropolitical environment’ and the tightening of the visa process have been responsible for the decline of passenger flow.

The Ukraine crisis which had led to the falling economy of the country with oil prices and sanctions imposed on Moscow by the Western countries. The country is going through high inflation and per capita income had drastically plummeted with one in every seven Russian being below the poverty line. The ruble has dropped to 4 per cent against the dollar in the last 12 months. Russians are unable to make foreign travels owing to the drastic drop. Russian travellers have plunged to a third in the first quarter of the year according to the European Travel Commission.

Foreign destinations are out of reach for Russian tourists. Since EasyJet is the only surviving airline still offering direct flights between Russia and U.S. it has decided to scrap its flights to Moscow. In the last June Cathay Pacific had stopped flying to Russia. Other airlines like Lufthansa, Air France, Qatar Airways and Etihad have cut on passenger flight to Russia.
