Flight from Tatarstan's reserve airfield, located in Ijevsk, has taken off en route to Sochi
In the skies over Russia, dense fog at Izhevsk Airport in Udmurtia caused disruptions to several flights today. The fog, which reduced visibility to a mere 300 meters, forced the landing of two planes at Begishevo Airport in Nizhnekamsk, Tatarstan.
The Izhavia airline operated Flight No504 from Sochi, which was forced to divert and land at Begishevo Airport at around 6 AM local time. Another plane, from St. Petersburg, also awaiting landing in Izhevsk Airport, followed suit and landed several hours later than its original schedule.
The fog's impact was not limited to these two flights. Two more flights, from Moscow and Sochi, were delayed due to the unfavourable conditions at Izhevsk Airport. According to the Izhavia website, both aircraft from Sochi and St. Petersburg landed several hours later than planned.
The name of the airport where the two additional delayed flights from Moscow and Sochi landed is Antalya Airport.
