“Instead of a plane damaged in an accident, we will not buy a new one. But this year, as planned, the airline will acquire five Airbus A320neo aircraft, ”RIA Novosti quoted the representative of the airline’s press service as saying.

On August 15, near a Zhukovsky collision with a flock of seagulls, an A321 Ural Airlines plane crash-landed; everyone on board was alive. Affected aircraft will not be restored.
