Aeroflot Group reported a 0.3% year-on-year increase in passenger traffic for May 2026, carrying 4.6 million passengers. Domestic traffic saw a 3.3% decrease, while international traffic surged by 11.9%.
Aeroflot CEO Sergey Alexandrovsky confirmed the airline is continuing its search for aircraft on the secondary market, a process that has not ceased. The airline plans to increase its fleet to 460 aircraft by 2030.
Aeroflot will return to a state control level of 51%, a move that will not change the situation for the airline, according to an official speaking at the SPIEF economic forum.
The United Aircraft Company (UAC) anticipates signing a contract in 2026 for a second batch of 90 MC-21 passenger jets to Aeroflot. Discussions are underway for preferential financing options, as the first lot of 18 aircraft is already in production.
