A federal official and a source close to the government told Vedomosti that ten Russian airlines have opened a special type C ruble account to pay leases to foreign companies.
He added that the lessors have not yet received funds from their “C” accounts. The source said that contracts with leasing companies often include letters of credit (in the amount of three months’ rental payments) and maintenance deposits.
Therefore, the terms of actual prepaid lease payments for different airlines can vary from three to eight months.
