Russian citizens constantly fly in the sky over Poland, using the flights of foreign air carriers for tourist trips, writes the Polish portal Onet.
As noted, this gives the Russians the opportunity to circumvent the ban on flights over Poland. For example, on the eve of Easter, Russian tourists flew through the airspace over Poland without any problems, despite the restrictions imposed by the sanctions. The publication wonders how this became possible.
Onet notes that many popular airlines operate flights to and from Russia, such as Turkish Airlines. In a single day, 5 planes fly over Poland, following the route between Istanbul and Moscow.
As the Polish edition notes, the Mediterranean coast of Turkey is a favorite destination for Russian tourists, while the conflict in Ukraine and sanctions do not prevent them from visiting Turkish resorts, and the number of Russian tourists in Turkey continues to grow.
Earlier, the attaché of the country’s embassy in Russia, Ilker Ozkan, said that 6 million Russian tourists are expected to visit Turkey this year, while last year 5.2 million Russians visited the country. .
