The history of Aeroflot can be traced back to 9 February 1923, when the Council of Labour and Defence passed a resolution to create the Civil Air Fleet of the USSR, amalgamating all pioneer airlines to form Dobrolet on 25 March 1923.[1][2]:119 Operations started on 15 July 1923 linking Moscow and Nizhny Novgorod, becoming the first regular services of the country.[2]:119 The name Aeroflot was adopted in 1932 after the reorganisation of Dobrolet.
Once the world's largest carrier,[3]:1389 Aeroflot did not restrict its operations to the transportation of passengers, but monopolised all civil aviation activities within the Soviet Union. Apart from passenger transportation that covered a domestic network of over 3600 villages, towns and cities, activities undertaken by the airline that were labelled as “non-transport tasks” included agricultural work, ice reconnaissance, anti-forest fire patrol, and aeromedical services, among many others.[3]:1389[4] It also became the de facto flag carrier of the USSR beyond its borders.
The former monopolistic Aeroflot – Soviet Airlines entered a new era following the dissolution of the USSR, when it shrank dramatically as it was split into several regional companies throughout the Commonwealth of Independent States in mid–1992. It was gradually reorganised and renamed Aeroflot – Russian International Airlines (ARIA).[5]:42 The incorporation of Western-built aircraft to its fleet, starting with the Airbus A310-300, was a milestone for the company.[5]:42[6] ARIA continued operating the former Aeroflot – Soviet Airlines international network, as well as serving a number of domestic destinations; yet, many of them were gradually abandoned within the forthcoming years. The name of the company was later changed to simply Aeroflot – Russian Airlines.
