Key facts
History
Established in 2000, it operated on behalf of its owner, the Irkut Corporation aircraft repair factory out of Irkutsk International Airport. With base airports in Irkutsk and Novosibirsk, Angara Airlines operated scheduled flights in the Siberian region and to other regions in the Russian Federation, as well as an international connection to Manzhouli, China. Besides the scheduled flights, Angara Airlines also offered charter transportation, VIP transportation and freight and mail services.
In July 2017, it was announced that the airline had signed a letter of intent for three Irkut MC-21-300s at the MAKS Air Show in Moscow. The airline had yet to decide which engines would be chosen for the aircraft. The aircraft, when an order is placed, were originally scheduled to be delivered from 2022 to 2025.
As with all Russian airlines since 2022, it was banned from flying into EU airspace.
On 27 October 2025, it was reported that the Russian civil aviation authority Rosaviatsiya would revoke Angara Airlines air operator's certificate on 5 November 2025, effectively grounding the airline. The decision was made over flight safety concerns following the fatal crash of Angara Airlines Flight 2311 in July 2025.
