Severstal Avia is a Russian airline and operator of the Cherepovets International Airport in the Vologda Region. The airline was founded in 1997 and has been operating scheduled flights since 1998.
Currently, the carrier operates regular and charter passenger flights, as well as scheduled business flights from Cherepovets to various cities in Russia, CIS countries and Europe. The airline operates over 80 flights per week. Its main passengers are private passengers on business trips, as well as Severstal's business partners.
The company's fleet consists of Bombardier CRJ200 and Sukhoi Superjet 100 aircraft. Russian-made SSJ100 regional aircraft entered the Severstal Avia fleet in 2018. At the beginning of 2020, an aircraft with the number RA-89135 entered their list. It was the first Superjet equipped with composite aerodynamic wingtips to enter commercial service.
"Saberlets", as these tips became known, made it possible to increase fuel efficiency and improve the take–off and landing characteristics of the aircraft by increasing the wingspan, which became 29.7 meters, instead of the standard 27.8. Currently, four Superjets are flying in the company's fleet, two of which are equipped with Saberlets.
