"Our contract expires on September 30, 2022, what will be fro October 1 is not known. Supposedly, current prices will be updated", - Irina Mgebrishvili, Financial and Administrative Manager of Ak-Air Georgia declares.
According to her, when the company started operating, the USD exchange rate stood at GEL 2.22 and ticket cost was 90, 50 and 125 GEL. At this stage, it is difficult for the company to specify whether the ticket price will remain at the old level in the fall. Air Georgia operates domestic flights.
"It is a state purchase, the price is announced, if any changes are made by the buyer, the price will change, we cannot change the price. At one of the meetings in the Ministry of Economy, which was attanded by 7-8 airlines, it was announced that the price for residents and non-residents should be differentiated since this was a very serious benefit for the mobility of the local mountain population. Local residents of Ambrolauri and Mestia really need support for internal mobility. If the tender price announced by the state is close to today's reality, we are interested and we are also preparing technically. We bought the equipment only for these purposes," said Irina Mghebrishvili.
