Russian airliners continue to fly through Canadian skies after several European countries shut their airspace to Russian carriers in response to Moscow's invasion of Ukraine.
OTTAWA -- Russian airliners continue to fly through Canadian skies after several European countries shut their airspace to Russian carriers in response to Moscow's invasion of Ukraine – but Ottawa is keeping all options on the table.
Aerospace consultant Ross Aimer says the passage marks a critical route for the airline, and that Russia would retaliate to flyover bans in kind. Western carriers routinely fly over Russia — the largest country on earth — en route to Asia and the Middle East, though passenger aircraft are currently steering clear of Ukraine and parts of Belarus and western Russia.
Launched this week, Russia's large-scale invasion of Ukraine closed in on the capital of Kyiv on Saturday as troops struck the country from three sides.
