More about the airport
Uzhhorod International Airport has been closed since 2016 when the intergovernmental agreement between Ukraine and Slovakia on common airspace expired. Due to the location of Uzhhorod airport, planes violate the airspace of the neighboring country during takeoff and landing there.
In September 2020, the then Minister of Infrastructure of Ukraine Vladyslav Krykliy and the Minister of Transport and Construction of Slovakia Andriy Dolezhal signed a bilateral intergovernmental agreement on the provision of aviation maintenance services by Ukrainian service providers in a certain part of Slovak airspace (primarily at Uzhhorod Airport).
