An alarm went off on board the Airbus A321, flying from Moscow to Sochi, preventing the flight from continuing safely. The crew decided to divert to an alternate airport and landed safely in Astrakhan (ASF/URWA). After inspecting the aircraft at the Astrakhan, traces of smoke were found in one of the baggage compartments. The airline is preparing a backup aircraft to send passengers to their destination.
