Armavia operates flights despite disagreement with Zvartnots airport

Talks between Zvartnots International Airport and Armenia's national carrier Armavia Air Company are underway.

The parties have not reached an agreement yet, Armavia spokesperson Nana Avetisova told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. “We continue operating the flights just to favour the interests of our customers,” she said.

Press secretary of the General Department of Civil Aviation of Armenia (GDCA) Nelly Cherchinyan informed on March 13 that following the meeting between Zvartnots and Armavia, supported by the Civil Aviation Chief Department, the parties reached an agreement whereby Armavia will further operate its flights.

“Zvartnots made concessions, setting a timescale for Armavia to pay the debt,” Cherchinyan said.

She also informed that Armavia will operate its flights without delay.

However, Armavia’s press service disseminated a statement shortly saying no agreement is reached over the dispute, and the parties have not signed any document on this.
