S7 Airlines

S7 Airlines is Russia's largest domestic air carrier, based at three large air transport hubs: Moscow (Domodedovo), Novosibirsk (Tolmachevo) and Irkutsk. It also has regular flights to the countries of the CIS, Europe, the Near East, South Asia and to countries in the Asia-Pacific region. S7 Airlines is a member of the global oneworld aviation alliance, world leader in providing quality services to passengers. Branches and representatives of S7 can be found in 37 cities in Russia, 13 cities in the CIS, and in 14 other cities worldwide, including Frankfurt-am-Maine (Germany), Beijing (China), Seoul (South Korea), Antalya (Turkey) and Bangkok (Thailand). S7 Airlines leads the market in the provision of on-line services, allowing passengers to choose flights, reserve tickets, make payments and check in for flights through its website. In 2008 the airline changed over entirely to the use of e-ticket technology, and 2009 saw the launch of the first mobile website of any Russian airline, here at s7.ru. Then, in January 2011, the airline introduced the ‘mobile boarding pass' service. The S7 Priority program enables frequent flyers to collect miles, and receive bonuses from S7 Airlines, other oneworld members, and from other commercial partners.
