RusLine

RusLine (IATA code 7R, ICAO code RLU) is a Russian regional airline established in 1999. Based at Vnukovo International Airport in Moscow, the airline focuses on connecting regional destinations across Russia and neighboring countries, serving routes that complement major carrier networks.

The airline operates a lean fleet composed entirely of Bombardier regional jets-specifically the CRJ-200LR and CRJ100 models. These aircraft are ideally suited for RusLine's business model: they offer efficient operations on routes with moderate passenger demand, reliable performance in challenging climates, and the operational flexibility needed for Russia's diverse airport infrastructure. The CRJ family provides good fuel economy for regional operations while maintaining respectable range and comfort standards.

Since its foundation over two decades ago, RusLine has positioned itself as a specialist in regional connectivity, filling an important niche in Russia's aviation market. The airline's hub-and-spoke model centered on Vnukovo enables efficient connections and provides travelers with alternatives on routes where larger carriers may have limited frequency or less convenient schedules.
