The company’s share in the total airport-bound passenger flow has grown from 15% to 17%.

The record-high number of passengers was recorded in December 2009: 738 thousand people used Aeroexpress’ services (a 63% growth against the same period in 2008), brining its December’s share to 23% (+7%).

Despite the fall in overall passenger flow in the Moscow airports in 2009, LLC Aeroexpress has demonstrated positive results on almost all of its lines.

168% more passengers (or 1.5 million more people) than in 2008 travelled by Aeroexpress on the Belorussky Railway Station – Sheremetyevo Airport line, 35% more passengers (or slightly under 1.5 million more people) travelled on the Moscow – Lobnya suburban line against the general decline in the suburban train service. Domodedovo Airport’s service (4.1 million people) account for the highest passenger flow of Aeroexpress and 1.2 million passengers were traveling to Vnukovo Airport.

According to the Aeroexpress, the positive results were achieved thanks to the cooperation with various partners, including GUP Moscow Underground, which enabled to offer their passengers combined underground and the Aeroexpress tickets.

At the beginning of 2010 LLC Aeroexpress also purchased optional liability insurance against harm to life, health or property of its passengers. Aeroexpress is also planning to remodel its coaches in 2010-2011 to increase their seating capacity while preserving the same level of comfort for passengers as before.

In February 2010 business class coaches are going to be introduced in Aeroexpresses running on the Belorussky Railway Station – Sheremetyevo Airport line.
