Q4 2014. This was partially offset by a reduction in outbound flight fares denominated in foreign currency , which was aimed at maintaining
passenger load factor during the sharp depreciation of the Rouble. In Q4 2014, international scheduled flight yields showed an increase of 12.1%.

The growth in cargo yields was related to the suspension of the dedicated cargo fleet operations in 2013 and switching entirely to passenger
