Breaking: Flights to Tomsk Delayed for Over a Day Due to Unforeseen Circumstances
Aircraft from Moscow arrives in Tomsk with a 28-hour delay
In a surprising turn of events, flights from Moscow to Tomsk have been marred by delays, with one flight taking more than double the usual travel time. As reported by RIA Tomsk, the S7 Airlines flight from Moscow's Domodedovo Airport arrived in Tomsk over a day late, landing on Thursday morning instead of the scheduled arrival time on Wednesday.
Instead of the expected arrival time of 6:40 AM on May 7, the S7 Airlines flight was delayed for nearly an entire day. Similarly, an Aeroflot flight from Moscow's Sheremetyevo Airport was expected at 7:20 AM on May 7 but arrived over 10 hours late, landing on Wednesday at 8:43 PM.
"The S7 Airlines flight 2615, which was supposed to depart from Moscow's Domodedovo Airport on Wednesday evening and arrive in Tomsk on Thursday morning, was cancelled altogether," explained a dispatcher.
Additionally, the online flight board shows that the Aeroflot flight from Moscow to Tomsk on Thursday is still delayed, with the plane now expected to land at 11:48 AM. Moreover, the Nordwind Airlines flight from Saint Petersburg to Tomsk, initially scheduled for 10:15 AM on Thursday, is also delayed, with the revised arrival time showing at 11:27 AM.
The recent nationwide disruptions due to a drone attack on Moscow have caused significant trouble for air travel, causing the cancellation of around 12% of flights at four major airports in Moscow on Wednesday and an additional 150 flights on Thursday[1]. However, the specific impact on flights to Tomsk, leaving over 4,000 passengers stranded in various Siberian cities due to delays[4], is not clearly detailed.
Even under normal circumstances, Alrosa Flight 6R9713, which connects Moscow to Tomsk, boasts a strong on-time performance record, typically avoiding significant delays as per recent data[5]. Yet, the current conditions may present a different situation due to the widespread disruptions. For the most accurate and up-to-date information, it would be best to check directly with airline providers or a flight tracking service.
