It is the first time the route has been operated by Transaero.

The scheduled service will operate on Wednesdays and Saturdays, with a Boeing 737 offering Discount class of service.

The flights, operating under the flight numbers UN416 and 415, will depart Heathrow at 18:30, arriving at 13:50 local time at St Petersburg’s Pulkovo Airport.
