In the far eastern region of Russia, the Magadan Oblast Public Chamber has been monitoring airfares on routes to Moscow, Khabarovsk, and Novosibirsk once a month. The aim of this monitoring is to help determine affordable airfare options for both business and vacation travel.

The Magadan Oblast Public Chamber does not set airfares but provides information on them. The monitoring considers the frequency of flights by different carriers to calculate a weighted average fare.
