APR 13, 2005 (newstodate): Airline operators at St Petersburg's airport, Pulkovo, are preparing a protest against an imminent handling charge hike.
Sources say Pupokovo intends to increase charges for incremental services nor regulated by state authorities, including aircraft towing, de-icing, and passenger boarding bridge operations.
The increase is reportedly deriving from a decision to substitute calculations based on US dollars into euro on a one-to-one basis.
Western airlines operating at Pulkovo include a/o Air France, Lufthansa, British Airways and Finnair.
