The State Aviation Service of Ukraine has demanded the international airports of Dnipro, Zaporizhia and Ivano-Frankivsk provide justification for the restrictions they imposed on accepting aircraft.

According to the service, in particular, the matter concerns calculations to determine the capacity of airfields (the total number of take-off and landing operations) taking into account the restrictions on the intensity and take-off weight of aircraft for the airports of Dnipro and Ivano-Frankivsk.

The Zaporizhia airport, in turn, is required to provide a plan to eliminate deficiencies in servicing passengers on domestic and international flights.

“To accelerate providing equal conditions of airfield use for all airlines, information from the airports will be reviewed by August 10,” the service said.

Earlier mass media reported Turkish Airlines cannot operate flights to Ivano-Frankivsk and Dnipro because of the technical condition of runways in the airports of these cities, which caused certain restrictions on flights.
