About 350 people, who had not been able to fly out of the Egyptian resort city of Hurghada for several days, have finally returned to Moscow.
The Russian General Consulate in Hurghada told Sputnik on Friday that around 300 passengers were stranded in Hurghada, waiting for Russian airline iFly to receive clearance to fly to Moscow.
The flight to Moscow was carried out by Red Wings instead of iFly. "We are very happy to finally return home," Sputnik cited one of the passengers as saying.
The Russian iFly airline had to postpone all of its flights from Egypt due to a restriction placed on Russian air carriers crossing Jordanian airspace.
