    TICKET PRICES SERIOUSLY GONE UP - ANC MP

    11:37 ~U 30.04.13

    Armenian National Congress faction MP Hrant Bagratyan says that the
    difficult situation created in the Armenian aviation causes
    complications for the people to reach Yerevan.

    According to him, it is not agreed with high ticket prices only,
    but with the difficulty to get tickets in general.

    "No matter who comes he/she faces problem. All the tickets are very
    expensive. In short, the prices for tickets have really gone up,"
    he said, speaking to Tert.am, adding that it is not about few percent
    rise but their prices have been raised few times.

    Bagratyan said the claims that Armavia's bankruptcy has not resulted
    in the growth of prices are not only lies but government's 'regular
    focus.'

    He said in aviation you cannot say that Yerevan-Moscow ticket costs
    200,000 drams, "It is not so, the ticket price depends on time... I
    have never seen professional approach by the government when they
    are commenting on the prices," the ANC MP said.

    He said Armavia has been made bankrupt on purpose, by taking money
    from business which means it is impossible to revive it.

    Bagratyan believes that for curing Armenia's aviation it is necessary
    to have at least two national carriers. "It is wrong to give monopoly
    to one. If it is done so, the situation will be the same. That is
    why it is necessary to have two and if possible even three national
    carriers," he said.

    The MP said it means that the Government will adopt a law with which
    it will give opportunity to the companies taking the first two or
    three places in the tender to implement flights. "But the fact that
    the executive does not hurry shows that it wants to give the aviation
    to one company," he said.

    "Currently an extremely complicated situation is being created in
    the aviation for one company to get it, and monopoly be established,"
    he concluded.
