There are 11 time zones in Russia, so passengers on these flights literally find themselves in a “time machine”.
Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky – Moscow. The time difference between Moscow and the capital of Kamchatka Krai is 9 hours and the flight time is 8 hours and 50 minutes. Thus, you arrive in Moscow 10 minutes earlier than you took off!
Anadyr – Moscow. Between Chukotka and Moscow, the difference is also 9 hours, but the flight time is 8 hours 10 minutes. The airplane arrives 50 minutes before the departure time.
Magadan – Moscow. The time difference between the cities is 8 hours, but the flight time is 7 hours 40 minutes. So, passengers arrive 20 minutes before the departure time.
True, if you fly from Moscow to these cities, on the contrary, you will arrive the next day.
