ICN-VVO itself costs between $ 1,000 and $1,300.

I would like to see KE and OZ offer more competitive (cheaper) to and from Russian Far East, for their benefits (competing against local Russian carriers to Japan/USA for example) and for consumers. They can be a bit overpriced in a duopoly/oligopoly environment, I have no problem with that, but the current ticket prices are just murders!

They should keep the criminal prices to F and C (as many oil and gas barons travel to Sakhalin/Far East I suppose) but lower the economy prices to keep the load fuller. I can't imagine the high load on this route given the ridiculous prices they charge.

By the way how is whitney

Cheers
