Aeroflot to make additional flight to evacuate Russians from Tokyo.

MOSCOW (Itar-Tass) - Aeroflot, Russia's major aircraft
carrier, will make an additional flight from Moscow to Tokyo and back to
Moscow on Thursday. The Boeing-767 will evacuate Russian nationals from
Japan, which continues to be hit by powerful earthquakes and nuclear power
plant accidents, a company source told Itar-Tass.
The Boeing-767 has 30 seats in business class and 184 in the economy
class. Only business class tickets will be available in free sale. Tickets
to the economy class will be sold at a special tariff to the family
members of employees of Russian organizations operating in Japan.
"In view of the situation unfolding in Japan, it was decided that the
families of employees of Russian institutions operating in Japan,
including the embassy in Tokyo, general consulates and a trade mission,
should temporarily leave Japan presumably on March 18," the Russian
Foreign Ministry said.
The staff of Russian diplomatic missions and other Russian state
organizations will stay in Japan.
