Air Moldova has announced that it will resume flights to Moscow following a seven-month suspension.
The national airline said in a statement on September 9 that it was restarting the route due to "countless requests from citizens of the Republic of Moldova who are in the Russian Federation and want to return home."
The airline said that the coronavirus pandemic and the suspension of flights to Russia had "created difficulties faced by hundreds of passengers every day," including for medical emergencies.
The air carrier suspended flights to Moscow following Russia's unprovoked invasion of Ukraine in February, which also led the Moldovan parliament to temporarily close the country's airspace under a state of emergency.
