The Russian low cost carrier Pobeda is planning to assume parent Aeroflot's route allocation for the Czech resort town of Karlovy Vary.

In a filing with Russia's Federal Air Transport Agency (Rosaviatsia), the LCC said it planned to operate seven weekly flights from Moscow Vnukovo to Karlovy Vary should it be given the go-ahead.

Famous for its hot springs, Karlovy Vary (or Carlsbad) is currently connected to Moscow Sheremetyevo and St. Petersburg by CSA Czech Airlines (OK, Prague).
