Ticket prices for planes leaving Russia jumped on Saturday and quickly sold out for some popular destinations as Wagner's columns were advancing toward Moscow. On aviasales.ru, which searches through numerous travel agents and airline sites, there were no direct flights left for Saturday to Istanbul, a popular destination for Russians who fled the country last year when the Kremlin began its full-scale invasion of Ukraine and then later issued a military draft. Direct flights for Sunday to the Turkish city cost more than usual, upward of $850.

Many Russians are trying to flee the country after Putin declared partial military mobilization. Plane tickets have sold out or skyrocketed in price, and land border crossings are seeing increased traffic. In trying to avoid deployment, fleeing Russians are facing traffic jams at border crossings and plane tickets that are either incredibly expensive or simply sold out. "Incoming traffic at the eastern border increased during the night," Finland's border guard said in a Wednesday statement. Western officials, as well as former diplomats and Russia experts, say that Putin's partial mobilization shows that Russia is "failing" or "losing" in Ukraine.

Руководителям придётся найти компромисс для тех, кто привык работать на удалёнке, и тех, кто хочет вернуться в офис, считает эксперт. Работодатели могут позволить сотрудникам работать в формате 3-2-2: три дня в офисе, два на удалёнке и два выходных, считает Уилланс. Сотрудники смогут выбирать, в какие дни недели работать из дома, а в какие — из офиса. Согласно данным индекса уверенности работников, который составил LinkedIn, более 47% сотрудников в США уверены, что компании позволят им частично работать на удалёнке после окончания пандемии. По его мнению, в таком формате работы есть огромный недостаток — отсутствие личных встреч.
