It is noteworthy that in the reporting period for 2026, the first 3 positions are headed by long-haul flights, which the airline began operating less than a year ago on Airbus A330-200 aircraft. It turns out that we are heading South, and you are supporting us!
At the same time, passengers' travel preferences traditionally change depending on the season. In summer, some destinations become the most in demand, and others in winter.
These figures are based on the extensive daily work of the Belavia team, as well as the consistent development of the airline and its fleet. In 2026, the airline continued to expand its fleet by purchasing three medium-haul Boeing 737-800 aircraft.
"We have taken another step forward by commissioning three aircraft of a type already familiar to us, the Boeing 737-800," said Igor Cherginets, General Director of Belavia Airlines. — The expansion of the fleet makes it possible to increase the airline's carrying capacity, develop the route network even more dynamically, and provide additional flexibility in scheduling. The commissioning of these aircraft was carried out in stages, in accordance with the airline's production plans. And we are already deploying aircraft on the most sought-after scheduled and charter routes.
A year ago, the airline systematically commissioned three wide-body Airbus A330-200s, thus opening a new milestone in the history of Belarusian civil aviation: thanks to this type of aircraft, direct long-haul flights from Minsk to South Asian countries were opened.
Thank you for flying with Belavia, see you on board!
