NordStar Airlines is celebrating its 17th anniversary. December 17, 2008, is considered the airline's first day of operations. The new company's founding gave impetus to the development of air travel from the Arctic city of Norilsk to the mainland and further expanded the geography of flights from its base airports of Domodedovo and Krasnoyarsk. Over the past 17 years, the airline has come a long way from a small carrier with just three aircraft to a major Russian airline, expanding its production capacity, expanding its fleet, and today offers its passengers one of the most extensive route networks, and for passengers from Norilsk, perhaps the largest route network in the airport's history – 20 scheduled destinations throughout Russia.

NordStar Airlines is annually ranked among Russia's largest air carriers, with passenger traffic exceeding 1 million. In October 2025, the airline carried its millionth passenger, confirming the popularity of its routes, passenger trust, and high level of service. Today, NordStar Airlines flies to over 45 destinations within Russia, covering many regions of the country.

In 2025, NordStar Airlines expanded its presence in the Norilsk Industrial Region by opening two airline ticket and service sales offices in Norilsk and Talnakh.

In the fall of 2025, the frequent flyer loyalty program was completely revamped. The program became clearer and more beneficial for passengers, replacing traditional miles with Stars. One Star is equivalent to one ruble and can be used to pay for airline tickets. Passengers also gained access to an expanded list of privileges, from access to premium lounges to special offers.

NordStar Airlines is actively investing in developing its internal competencies. Its engineering and technical staff independently perform complex aircraft maintenance, ensuring high levels of safety and efficiency. In 2025, the airline opened its own Aviation Training Center. It trains future pilots and flight attendants, and provides advanced training for existing employees. This is an important step in building a sustainable talent base and maintaining a high level of onboard service.

"Our seventeenth anniversary is not only a source of pride but also a starting point for new achievements. NordStar's immediate plans include expanding its route network, implementing digital solutions, and improving operational efficiency and environmental sustainability. Seventeen years is a milestone when it's especially important to remain true to our chosen course and continue to develop. I'd like to express special gratitude to our passengers. The trust expressed in every ticket issued is our main focus and motivation to move forward," noted Leonid Mokhov, CEO of NordStar Airlines.

On the airline's birthday, passengers can expect pleasant surprises on board and at sales offices in Norilsk, with the biggest gift being a festive airfare sale. Tickets to and from Norilsk are available at unprecedented rates – starting from 17,000 rubles for round-trip travel to Moscow, Novosibirsk, Abakan, St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg, Sochi, Mineralnye Vody, Ufa, Krasnodar, and Chelyabinsk from January 20, 2026, to April 10, 2026. Passengers from other cities will also be able to enjoy festive fares of 1,700 rubles one-way. A full list of participating routes, flight dates, and other terms and conditions can be found on the website. www.nordstar.ru in the Special Offers section.

11/25/2025 on the resourcehttps://vvv.kommersant.ru/daughter/8230045Information was published that NordStar Airlines, at the request of the prosecutor's office, paid its employees over 1.9 million rubles in unpaid wages.

Unfortunately, the rumor was picked up by several regional and Russian online news outlets, which also spread information that a case had been opened against the airline's director for wage arrears.

This information is unverified and inaccurate. NordStar Airlines strictly complies with all Russian labor law requirements regarding the procedure and timing of salary payments. The aforementioned payment of 1.99 million rubles was made to cover overtime work under a summarized accounting system. According to current Russian legislation, this payment is subject to transfer at the end of the relevant summarized accounting period (in this case, the summarized accounting period was from January 1, 2025, to September 30, 2025).

Thus, the payment of 1.99 million rubles was made on time and in strict compliance with the law. NordStar Airlines has no outstanding wage arrears to its employees. Furthermore, there are no pending cases against NordStar Airlines' CEO for wage arrears or any other violations of Russian labor law.

We urge media representatives to be responsible about the information they post on their resources and to verify information with official sources before publishing, and not to disseminate unverified or inaccurate information.

Please rely solely on the official statement of the Airline and the Prosecutor's Office regarding this matter.
