Will data retention law ban bookings?

Question

Personal Information

From September 1, the law on the storage of personal data will come into force. It essentially prohibits the storage of Russian users' data on foreign servers.
Does this mean that none of the international booking systems will no longer work with Russian data? And how much will this affect the booking search engines?

Answer 1

Hello.
If the law enters into force in its current form and no additions and clarifications are made, this will cause serious harm to the industry. After all, tickets are issued in international systems - amadeus, sabre, gallileo. In this case, even Aeroflot, which uses the system from Saber, will suffer.
We hope that it will not come to this and the parties will be able to find a solution to this issue.
