FlyOne (Armenia) (3F, Yerevan) has announced it will launch scheduled operations from Yerevan to seven international destinations starting on December 15, 2021.
The Armenian start-up plans to operate to Moscow Vnukovo (the destination of its inaugural flight, daily), Istanbul Airport (3x weekly), Tehran Imam Khomeini, Lyon St. Exupéry, Tel Aviv Ben Gurion, Krasnodar, and Tbilisi (2x weekly each). Tickets for all routes are already available on the carrier's internet booking engine. It is also offering connecting tickets via Vnukovo to Chisinau International, with the second leg operated by its Moldovan sister carrier FlyOne (5F, Chisinau International).
Chairman of FlyOne, Vladimir Cebotari, told ch-aviation that the Armenian carrier will operate one A320 transferred from its Moldovan sister carrier and plans to add one A321-200 in the first phase and another unit of the same type for the Summer 2022 season.
The airline is a 54/46 joint venture between a trio of Armenian entrepreneurs and FlyOne and received its Air Operator's Certificate (AOC) on October 26, 2021. However, the most recent update of the Armenian aircraft register, published on November 5, does not show any aircraft assigned to FlyOne. Its Moldovan sister carrier operates one A319-100 and four A320-200s. ch-aviation has learned that the Armenian unit will take over A320s ER-00006 (msn 4630), which has been parked in Moldova since October 27, 2021, and ER-00007 (msn 4757), which remains active for the time being. Cebotari said that FlyOne was negotiating the lease of three A321-200s in total, including the units assigned to the new Armenian unit.
