Updated Traveler Platform Rollout from T2, Offering Bonuses and Feedback
In the ever-evolving landscape of global travel, Russia is making significant strides, with its T2 travel platform playing a pivotal role in this expansion.
Recently, the T2 platform at Moscow's Sheremetyevo Airport has seen an increase in international connections, marking a significant leap in Russia's global air network. Notable among these new routes are the monthly direct flights from Moscow to Pyongyang (North Korea), Baku (Azerbaijan), Denpasar (Bali, Indonesia), Guangzhou (China), and Larnaca (Cyprus) [1][4]. This broadens Russia's reach, reflecting its commitment to forging stronger international ties amid geopolitical shifts.
Meanwhile, Air Arabia is expanding its routes linking the UAE and Russia. From late October 2025, direct flights will operate from Ras Al Khaimah to Yekaterinburg and Kazan, two prominent Russian cities known for their cultural and industrial significance, as well as their rich blend of Russian and Tatar heritage [2][3]. These new routes offer more direct travel options for both leisure and business travellers, reinforcing the growing connectivity between Russia and the UAE.
The launch of these routes benefits from Moscow’s Sheremetyevo T2 platform, a modern terminal designed to handle an increasing volume of global flights. This facility facilitates these new and diverse destinations, making international travel more accessible for Russians.
In a bid to encourage domestic tourism, T2, as a telecommunications operator, is actively supporting this sector's growth. The updated T2 travel platform now offers one-day routes to unique places in the Nizhny Novgorod region, such as a forge of northern masters, a real mine, a complex of caves, a cheese factory, and others. Longer routes on the platform include a trip to the Bor district, featuring a famous cable car, options for visiting a picturesque park, an ice cream factory, and staying overnight in a Kazakh aul.
To make trips more enjoyable for its subscribers, T2 offers various benefits. Clients have access to partner discounts, gifts, cashback, and travel services including auto concierge and insurance. Furthermore, the updated platform offers discounts on accommodation booking services and cashback for purchasing tickets for excursions.
In summary, the T2 travel platform is playing a crucial role in expanding Russia's travel horizons, both domestically and internationally. With its new routes and benefits, T2 is making travel more accessible, enjoyable, and affordable for its subscribers.
