Article Title: Flights from Kurgan to Moscow More Expensive Than Tyumen - Airline Launches Discount Campaign
In a recent turn of events, it has been observed that flights from Kurgan to Moscow are generally more expensive compared to flights from the nearby city of Tyumen. This revelation comes from a comparison of recent flight price data, which shows that the average cost of a flight from Kurgan to Moscow is around 318 Israeli Shekels (₪), while flights from Tyumen to Moscow are slightly cheaper at about 203 ₪ [1][2].
This price difference could be attributed to Tyumen's geographical proximity or better connectivity to Moscow, offering more competitive fares compared to Kurgan. A Kurgan resident, for instance, recently found a round trip from Tyumen to Moscow for 12,000 rubles, while the same round trip from the airline operating flights from Kurgan to Moscow costs over 30,000 rubles [3].
In an attempt to address this issue, an airline operating flights from Kurgan to Moscow has launched a campaign to reduce ticket costs. This campaign promises potential savings of up to 12,000 rubles, significantly reducing the price gap between the two routes [4]. However, even with this discount, flying from Tyumen to Moscow remains cheaper according to Kurgan travelers [5].
Interestingly, a flight from Kurgan to Moscow has been listed at prices starting from approximately 535 Tajikistani Somoni (TJS), which, when converted, falls within a similar range depending on exchange rates, with flight durations around 2 hours [1].
As always, it's important to note that prices can fluctuate based on the airline, date of booking, and travel season. Therefore, checking current listings closer to travel time is advisable.
