VLADIVOSTOK, November 18, vladivostoktimes.com Vladivostok Air is the only airline which offers direct air flight from Khabarovask to Anadyr and back. In fact, air transport is the most convenient way of getting from Chukotka Autonomous Area to the Khabarovsk Territory.  There are no railways between the regions and water transport is only seasonal available, as the Vladivostok Air public relations service reports.
