Armenian Citizens Receive Compensation for Canceled Flights: Ministry of Foreign Affairs

Armenian citizens have benefited from financial compensation provided by the Armenian government for acquiring new airline tickets due to the cancellation of return flights. This was announced by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Armenia.

“The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Armenia has implemented a process for compensating citizens who purchased new airline tickets due to the cancellation of return or transit flights as a result of military operations that occurred in the Middle East in February. From April 10 to August 20, 2026, a total of 630 applications have been received from Armenian citizens, resulting in compensation being granted to 902 citizens. The total amount of compensation has reached approximately 174 million drams, with each individual receiving up to 250,000 drams.”

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has supported citizens throughout the entire process, from filling out applications and submitting the necessary documents to providing compensation, coordinating with airlines and tourism companies as needed.

Considering the declining trend in the receipt of applications, the Armenian government, by decision No. 1237 dated August 20, set the deadline for application submissions as August 25,” the statement said.
