Russia's UTAir has begun operating a Boeing 757-200 on international routes and is adding a fourth destination to its Ukrainian network.
The carrier says the aircraft accomodates 227 passengers in an all-economy cabin and is powered by Pratt & Whitney PW2040 engines.
UTAir will use it for providing cross-border services with higher demand, in particular from Russian major cities to resorts in Turkey and Egypt.
Next month the carrier's subsidiary UTAir-Ukraine is to start serving Zaporozhye with scheduled flights to Moscow using ATR 42 turboprops.
It will be the fourth city in UTAir's Ukrainian route network which also comprises Lugansk, Kharkov and Nikolayev.
