Lviv airport is preparing to resume flights

Danylo Halytsky Lviv International Airport is taking steps to potentially resume civil aviation flights even under martial law. According to airport officials, the safety of passengers, aircraft and infrastructure is a top priority.

The press service of the airport reported that an operational document for the evacuation of passengers has already been developed, and regular training of evacuation procedures is also being conducted. In addition, technical support and monitoring of all information systems that ensure uninterrupted operation of the airport continues.

"We maintain the airport's infrastructure in operational condition, because in the event of a complete shutdown, it may take years to restore operations," the airport said in a statement.

Despite the war, 30% of the pre-war personnel continue to keep the airport operational, providing the minimum necessary operations.

The idea of ​​resuming flights in Ukraine during the war is actively discussed. In October 2024, the Ministry of Community Development presented a road map for the opening of airspace under martial law.

According to Marsh McLennan expert Crispin Ellison, by the end of January 2025, up to six airlines may start operating at one of Ukraine's airports. However, for this, air travel insurance is necessary - a key factor that remains difficult to implement.

Despite the effort, the idea of ​​resuming flights has received criticism from military experts. Colonel of the Air Force of Ukraine Oleksandr Lykhodid noted that it is impossible to ensure full anti-aircraft defense of airports and routes in the current conditions. He called this initiative an "adventure" that could lead to tragic consequences.

Lviv Airport remains a symbol of stability and readiness to resume operations. However, the implementation of these plans will depend on the security situation, the resolution of insurance issues and the ability to ensure full aviation security.
