Russia’s Aeroflot temporarily suspended from SkyTeam alliance

Aeroflot has been temporarily suspended from the SkyTeam alliance membership. Although SkyTeam did not mention any reason for its decision, it is likely a punitive measure for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. SkyTeam said: “SkyTeam and Aeroflot have agreed to temporarily suspend the airline’s SkyTeam membership. We are working to limit the impact for customers and will inform those affected by any changes to SkyTeam benefits and services.” Established in 2000, SkyTeam is headquartered in Amsterdam and is one of the three major airline alliances across the globe.<br/>
