S7 Airlines has joined the Oneworld global alliance, the carrier said Monday. S7 passengers will be able to buy and spend Oneworld air miles and make use of benefits of the other 11 members in the alliance, including American Airlines, British Airways and Qantas.
Vladislav Filev and his wife Natalia, who own 70 percent of the carrier, are ready to buy shares “at a reasonable price,” Filev said Monday, declining to elaborate. The government owns 25 percent of S7.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
