New CEO of Biletix

On October 8, Alexander Sizintsev left his office as CEO of the tour operator and Internet service for travellers Biletix, that he established in 2009, as part of Vipservice holding. He was replaced by Igor Konstantinov, prior to this – the Sales Manager at Biletix.

"We currently observe rapid and radical changes in technology and distribution channels on the passenger air transportation both in Russia and worldwide. Wishing to become a part of these global shifts and having all the required professional skills and knowledge, I made the decision to move to the team of the developer company "Transport Automated Information Systems – TAIS". The key development of TAIS is TAIS PSS, an IT platform for managing investor and distribution processes of airline companies. At TAIS, my mission will be to optimise management processes and prepare the company for further expansion on the market as the Deputy CEO for economics and finance," Alexander Sizintsev commented on his decision.

Under Alexander Sizintsev's guidance, Biletix grew from a startup into one of the largest players on the market of online tourism and e-commerce in Russia and the CIS. In 2017, the company's turnover reached RUB 11 bln, with the sales exceeding 1.3 mln tickets. The list of key corporate clients of Biletix includes such companies as Sberbank, VTB, Rostelecom, Tinkoff Bank, Svyaznoy, Vnukovo Airport, and others. With the headquarters in Russia, Biletix has local offices in the capital cities of Armenia, Kazakhstan, and Belarus.

Igor Konstantinov became a part of the Biletix team in 2016 when he formed a sales block and headed it. His career started in the tourism industry in 2003 at S7 Airlines. From 2006 to 2016 Igor Konstantinov was CEO at Transagency Vnukovo CJSC, in charge of managing sales of transport and affiliated services at the Vnukovo Airport. "My key objectives as the CEO of Biletix for the next couple of years will be to ensure the stable growth of revenue and financial stability, introduce efficient automated processes, and expand the product range in all sales channels on the markets with the Biletix presence," Igor Konstantinov announced.
