Pulkovo Aviation EnterprisePLK/ FV

Pulkovo Aviation Enterprise was a Russian airline headquartered in Saint Petersburg that operated from 1991 until its closure in 2012. The airline served as a major regional carrier for northwestern Russia, focusing on passenger operations from its hub at Pulkovo Airport in Saint Petersburg, with routes connecting to major cities across Russia, Eastern Europe, and select Western European destinations. Pulkovo operated as a full-service carrier offering economy and business class cabins and maintained the Pulkovo frequent flyer program for its loyal passengers. The airline was notable for being one of the primary carriers serving the Saint Petersburg market during the post-Soviet period, playing an important role in the region's aviation infrastructure. Financial difficulties and increased competition from larger Russian carriers and budget airlines ultimately led to the airline's operational closure, with its assets and operations subsequently absorbed by other Russian carriers.
