Armavia, Armenia's "national carrier" airline, went on a short-lived strike today, in protest of what it called unfair administrative fees at Yerevan's Zvartnot's International Airport, while Armenia International Airports company says that Armavia is grounded because of outstanding debts that prohibit it from making flights to Russia.
Armavia launched the strike early this morning, halting three flights (two to Moscow and one to Rostov).
Armenia's General Department of Civil Aviation and airline representatives called a quick meeting and in less than two hours, Armavia had called off the strike as sides in the dispute agreed to negotiate a settlement in the coming weeks.
By mid-afternoon Tuesday, passengers enroute to Moscow and to Rostov are being boarded for continuation of their delayed flights.
