Plane departed from Chelyabinsk but hasn't arrived in Moscow as of now.
Get the real deal on that Aeroflot flight, y'all!
Swear to Dog, a plane from Chelyabinsk bound for Moscow, hasn't made it to the big smoke yet. According to our man at Novy Day, flight No. 1427 should have taken off on the 6th at 10:30 pm local time. However, due to those darn restrictions on airports in central Russia the night before, the plane touched down in Chelyabinsk at 11:15 pm. The aircraft finally pushed back for Moscow at 12:25 am. Although it flew for around an hour, it started looping over Naberezhnye Chelny, circle-dancing for 55 minutes!
After those aerobatics, the plane continued to Moscow, but veered off course again towards Yaroslavl, making another loop and landing at Pulkovo around 3:00 AM (all times Moscow time). Passengers were banned from deboarding until 9:00 AM, and they were then shuffled off to consult with airline representatives.
Since Pulkovo was designated as a backup airport for multiple flights the previous night, a lengthy line formed at the Aeroflot counters. "We stood in line for about two hours, but nary a word was uttered about what was going on," grumbled Chelyabinsk locals. "We were handed new boarding passes for the same flight, which is allegedly scheduled to depart for Moscow at noon. But just remember, there's no guarantee we'll take flight: the time has been altered about ten times."
Chelyabinsk, Pavel Zvarzin
