 Omskavia (Russian:ОмскА́виа) was an airline based in Omsk, Russia. It operates domestic and international scheduled and charter, passenger, cargo and mail services, as well as aircraft maintenance. Its main bases were Tsentralny Airport, Omsk and Domodedovo International Airport, Moscow.[2] The airline joined the AirBridge alliance in 2004, which was restructured as AiRUnion in the summer of 2005.[citation needed] The Russian aviation authority is suspending flights effective 17 October 2008.[3]

It was established and started operations on 1 February 1994. The airline is owned by KrasAir (71%) and other shareholders (29%).[2] [edit] DestinationsOmskavia has regular scheduled flights to Moscow, Nizhnevartovsk, Sochi in Russia, and Frankfurt, Hanover, Cologne in Germany.
