Development of small aviation  one of Armenian government`s  priorities - Pashinyan

ArmInfo.The aircraft operating the Yerevan-Kapan route is undergoing technical inspection, and for this reason, the route is not currently being serviced, as  stated by Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan during a government hour in the National Assembly on December 3.

According to him, the issue is purely technical. Until the aircraft's  technical inspection is completed, another aircraft is planned to be  used. Flights on this route are currently subsidized, and in this  regard, the Prime Minister emphasized the need to increase passenger  traffic, which will lead to increased commercial interest in  servicing this route.

Pashinyan emphasized that the development of small aviation is one of  the Armenian government's priorities and opportunities for opening  airports in Shinuhayr, Stepanavan, Sisian, Gavar, and Berd are  currently being explored. The possibility of involving private  companies in this work is being considered.
