There used to be a direct flight from Seattle to Moscow years ago.

Subject: RE: Expat List flying out of Russia?

 

Raffi,
 
Our friends at Aeroflot have come up with a good solution. They have re-routed 
the flight path of the direct Moscow to Los Angeles flight to avoid the ash. 
Lately, it has been flying from Moscow East to Alaska, then down the Pacific 
Coast to Los Angeles. This adds about 1.5 hours to the regular flight time of 
12 hours (which normally flies over the North Atlantic, Greenland and Canada), 
but as a result, it has kept people moving between the US and Russia. Good job 
Aeroflot! 
 
(if I could just convince them to add a regular flight to Anchorage, I'd be 
super happy).
 
Regards,
 
Tony the Alaskan (but for the last 10+ years in Russia)
