Aeroflot disputes the Audit Chamber's opinion that the airline is not being run efficiently, the company said in a press release, Interfax reported Wednesday.
"In its report, the Audit Chamber, while correctly noting that the high cost of flights has been driven by convenient slots and aircraft fleet additions, makes, in our view, the inaccurate conclusion that the company is not being run efficiently," the airline said.
Aeroflot believes that convenient departure and arrival times for passengers and new aircraft are a key competitive advantage for the airline, one that has enabled it to get more passengers.
The carrier also thinks its advertising and administrative costs cannot be classified as ineffective.

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.
