Multi Service has added a fourth merchant to its service network in Russia. The addition of RusAero came on May 16; the company can now accept the Multi Service card at a number of facilities in the CIS.

"We met RusAero at EBAA in Brussels," Coletta van den Bosch told EBAN. "We also have Streamline Ops and Air Shannon in Russia, I think we have covered pretty much the whole Russian market now.

"What we are planning to do now is compare prices and inform our customers about who is the cheapest and who is able to provide the most services. This is just another possibility for services for our customers."

Business is booming for Multi Service in Russia, according to van den Bosch. "We have more customers in Russia in the last couple of months. There are a lot of strange airports, RusAero covers some of the smaller ones," she concluded.
