OREANDA-NEWS. UTair Aviation and Alfa-Bank have launched a new payment option for ticket purchases made on the airline's official website www.utair.ru.

UTair Passengers can now make payments using Alfa-Click, a special online banking service from Alfa-Bank that offers Alfa Click users a convenient way to make online payments. After the ticket is booked on the UTair website, the client receives a bill to be paid through their Alfa-Click account.
