Flight delays may occur because of this. Some airlines said that they will have no problems with timely receipt of food on board, while some expect delays in the work of catering firms.
The management company of Pulkovo Airport in St. Petersburg reported that starting from May 18, customers should be prepared for flight delays and lack of meals during the flight. This is due to the fact that on that day the technology of in-flight catering inspection will change.
But most carriers said that the change will not affect passenger service on their part. Flight delays may arise due to the failure of one of the companies supplying ready meals to fulfill their duties. Yamal and Ural Airlines noted that they do not rule out problems with the timely delivery of meals on board.
Starting from June 20, it will be possible to fly from Pulkovo airport to Vladivostok without connecting flights.
Cab drivers in St. Petersburg said that the localization law would cause prices for their services to rise several times.
