Sverdlovsk United Squadron
The founder of the modern airline "Ural Airlines" can be considered the Sverdlovsk United Squadron, which was created in 1943 to develop air transportation from Sverdlovsk (the former name of the city of Yekaterinburg). The squadron included not only the flight squadron, but also the Koltsovo airport. Over the next decades, the detachment became a large aviation enterprise that was part of the unified Soviet Aeroflot. The schedule of Koltsovo airport included flights to all big cities USSR, the flight squadron also provided air traffic for small settlements Ural and adjacent territories.
Creation of the airline "Ural Airlines"
In 1993, the Sverdlovsk United Squadron was divided into 2 enterprises - Koltsovo airport and Ural Airlines. It was from this moment that began modern history Ural Airlines as an independent carrier. The newly created airline inherited from its predecessor the entire aircraft fleet, part of the ground infrastructure and qualified personnel. In the first years of its activity, Ural Airlines operated flights on traditional routes on Soviet-made aircraft - An-24, Tu-134, Tu-154, Il-86.
Development of Ural Airlines
The company's active development took place in the 2000s, when the company's passenger traffic was growing steadily. The airline began operating flights not only from Yekaterinburg, but also from other cities in Russia. The network of international flights to cities in Europe, Asia and the CIS countries has expanded. The infrastructure was also modernized, new technologies for servicing passengers and aircraft were introduced. By 2010, Ural Airlines completely renewed its aircraft fleet. The place of obsolete aircraft was taken by modern medium-range airliners manufactured by Airbus - A319, A320, A321.
For high-quality and efficient operation of the updated fleet, in 2012 the airline opened its own training center for pilots of the Airbus family aircraft, and in 2015 it launched its own training center for maintenance aircraft data. This allowed the airline to conduct training and crew training on its own, to carry out even the most complex forms of aircraft maintenance without involving third parties and high costs.
Today, Ural Airlines continues to focus on growth, continues to keep pace with the times, and plans to further expand its route network and the range of services provided.
Ural Airlines started its activities in 1943, then the company was called the Sverdlovsk United Detachment, and received its modern name in 1993 - Ural Airlines, the official website uralairlines.ru. The main airport Koltsovo is located in Yekaterinburg, the second in Moscow Domodedovo. The aerial company is headed by S.N. Skuratov. Ural Airlines is in the TOP-5 of the largest companies in the Russian Federation, serving more than 8 million passengers a year.
Information about the company's fleet

Simferopol - Moscow, U6 10, 21.07. We checked in online on a convenient website a day before the flight, choosing the best seats. At first, all flights were delayed except ours,...
closer to the flight, it turned out that ours was delayed by 30 minutes. We sat at the airport from 13:00 (for some reason we arrived ourselves so early), and saw how flight 576 was delayed, about which negative reviews below. That's right, you shouldn't have chosen UA flights, you had to choose Aeroflot, then you would not have been detained for 2 hours that day, but 4 !!! On this day, the flight of Aeroflot to Moscow was delayed by 4 (!!!) hours, and not by 2, as yours. Only Aeroflot has some positive reviews, but here some negative ones)) Before us, UA flights took off to Yekaterinburg, Krasnoyarsk, with a maximum delay of one hour. We took the "Promo" fare, everything was enough, because: a) we can read what is written about baggage when buying a ticket. If a person stuffed ~ 23 ~ 32 kg of things and souvenirs into a bag, took the "Promo" tariff, and then minus UA for the additional payment for luggage - well, you should minus yourself, not the company. Or do you want to be provided with a personal carpet - an airplane for 6 thousand rubles? b) turned for help to the UA counters, behind which stood the girls, who generally had to do other things, and not answer our questions - the girls helped with a smile, did not say "we do not give information, we draw up the preponderance" (I would I probably would have answered that myself =))), but they helped us by saying that if there are two tickets for one order, then the luggage is summed up. This saved us from partially emptying the suitcase. By the way - in the airport of Simferopol there are a huge number of counters and devices for self-check-in for a flight from UA, no other company is represented in such a volume in the port - definitely a plus, you just need to use this, and people are better off stressing and blaming others so that they themselves do not strain. The flight itself: The last time I flew a transaero (yes, for a long time) on a two-story Boeing (I don't know the model) with 4 turbines. So then it shook more than on the 320 UA airbus, which flew on this flight. Gained height in 5 minutes, did not feel any discomfort (I associate it with the fact that the seats were above the wing - they themselves chose such, thanks to the comfortable online registration per day - again, plus UA), and the same when landing. Cons of the flight: - inadequate passengers who got up during the climb to put their luggage upstairs - right, it's time. We taxied for 15 minutes along the runway, but it was necessary to put the bag upstairs precisely when climbing - and they made such a displeased mine when the captain shouted "Sit down" in shock over the link, as if they were forced to rake manure. Passengers who ignored the request to remove all electronic devices and headphones during take-off / landing. Passengers who, in two hours of flight, managed to find an excuse to find out something with the flight attendants and piss them off. Passengers who did not even bother to thank the captain of the ship for a wonderful flight. (judging by the voice of the captain was young, but he really loves his job, and I even felt very sorry for him that no one thanked him with either applause or when leaving). Passengers who started filming mobile phone briefing before the flight and thus made the flight attendant nervous (would you send links to YouTube with such videos?). Of course, the staff is not ironclad, some react calmly, some do not, but not a single steward girl succumbed and did not break, at least she did not show it - plus to the staff. I would not be able to do this, it seems to me I would begin to be rude to such citizens, because it is the personnel who are responsible for the lives of people, that inside there are iron cans at an altitude of 9 thousand km. And people themselves interfere with all their might .... They get up on takeoff, thinking that the rule to sit strapped on is bullshit for losers, or something. And it would be worthwhile to open a physics textbook (not even aerodynamics), and remember that this is not so; do not turn off electrical devices that can create fields, thinking that this is nonsense - and this is not nonsense guys, all fields are calculated, and any displacement of one of the vector of fields used for aircraft technology, even minimal, can lead to a disaster. Yes, the passengers wanted to spit. The main thing is your comfort, not the life of 100 people in an iron can called an airplane. VERDICT - I put 9 airlines. I bet 3 passengers of the company (of course, not everyone behaved this way, but this is the first time I see that they do not clap when boarding). The only reason for me not to fly UA anymore is the passengers. What is the reason for this without a clue at all, maybe the price attracts inadequate ones? I give 100,500 to the pilot of the plane. He apologized for the delay due to the late arrival at the port of Simferopol (I am more than sure that because of the passengers who did not have time / got drunk / think that everyone should wait for them - and the pilot apologizes), but compensated for the fast flight (2 should have flown: 15, flew 2:05) The pilots are heroic people. They take responsibility for the lives of people who are trying in every possible way to prevent the pilots from saving it. Just out of love for work. I respect. Airplane - an airplane like an airplane, you can see that it flies, nothing more. Airbus 320 is still my favorite. Luggage - not lost, not robbed, waited 10 minutes This was the situation on our flight. And by the way, no expired chokopai. All good, do not be snobs, clap the pilots when landing. P.S. oh, I will forget this review.
