According to information obtained from two sources in investment circles, the owners of "Aviasales" are considering the possibility of selling their company. Investment banker Ilya Shumov estimates that the value of this search engine is at least $300 million, as reported by the publication "Kommersant".

According to anonymous informants, the process of preparing for the sale has already begun; however, negotiations with potential buyers have not yet been initiated. One of the sources noted that the complexity of the ownership structure, possible foreign assets, and the high price could become obstacles to completing the deal. "Aviasales" told "Kommersant" that "management and shareholders are not aware of any plans to sell the company from unnamed market participants".

Additionally, one of the sources pointed out that banks may be among the potential buyers of "Aviasales". According to him, a significant number of clients are currently transitioning to the ecosystems of financial organizations, and ticket distribution is an upfront business that requires serious investments.
