Order needs to be imposed as soon as possible after the group of air carriers encountered problems last week, the state-run news agency cited Putin saying at a meeting of the Presidium on Monday.
AiRUnion resumed flights from Domodedovo Airport over the weekend, ending days of delays caused by soaring prices for jet fuel.
AiRUnion, an alliance of five airlines, delayed more than 20 flights across the country last week after jet fuel companies severed supplies over debts.

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.
