  1. This is so wild.

    Azerbaijan and Russian leadership are so close this is like seeing news the USA shot down a Canadian commercial plane.

  2. I am honestly shocked they would continue to fly to Russia, or over it, at all after this, I know it’s probably most of their market but Russia shot their plane and dozens died.

  3. Ticket sales for Russian destinations probably aren’t doing great right now either

  4. Kazakhstan and Israel also suspended all flights

  5. A safety concern… Ya know they could have just let the damn plane land and said ‘muh bad.’ It’s not like their reputation can get much worse.

  6. Europe currently have banned all flights crossing Russian airspace, this introduces a detour for flights between Europe and Asia.

    China does not care about this, so they have an competitive advantage against European airlines.

  7. I was on a Singapore Airlines flight in September that diverted over Russia due to weather in the Black Sea. Hope they’ve stopped doing that shit. 

  8. I wanted to use air china to fly to asia but I guess I won’t anymore since they fly over russia

  9. If you look at the airspace between Europe and Asia, except for the not pole there aren’t a lot of good options left.

  10. Wait till you hear about the suffering israeli airlines go through by cancelling their flights to russia. Each flight to russia was more profitable than a dozen other destinations.

  11. Russia has 140 million people that are effectively working, living and going on about their daily lives as usual while their government engages in widespread carnage, terrorist attacks and apocalypse threats. Such a severe lack of empathy for others and silent approval of non-stop disgusting, meaningless violence is repulsive and deranged on their part. I’m saying this because there is no effective resistance and the society seems to be carrying on as usual, perhaps even aroused from the violent acts. Sick people.
