According to him, it is too early to talk about any deadline. But the Ukrainian side is already delivering to regulators its vision of how the market will function under martial law, as well as its risk assessment, strategies and algorithms.
“There are not many examples in the world where there are airports where drones or missiles can fly at any time. Israel is the most successful example. We spent and continue to spend a lot of time consulting with the civil aviation administration of Israel,” Kubrakov said.
According to him, at the level of plans there are different scenarios for the number of airports that can be opened in Ukraine.
“It is important for us to hear the first official comment from the regulators,” the minister said.
Kubrakov assured that there are European airlines that are interested and want to be the first to resume work on the Ukrainian aviation market, but refused to name them. Negotiations are also ongoing with three Ukrainian companies.
“They also confirm, of course, that they want to fly here, this is their base airport, their base country,” the minister said.
As you know, on the day of Russia’s full invasion, February 24, 2022, Ukraine completely closed its airspace to civil aircraft.
But in December 2023, aviation vacancies appeared on job search sites. And information appeared online that the Kiev Boryspil airport may begin to operate.
Then the president’s office named the conditions for opening the Boryspil airport.
