Ukraine is 95% ready to resume air transportation, but this depends on ensuring the safety of passengers. This was announced by Deputy Prime Minister for Recovery Oleksiy Kuleba in an interview with the Karpyak na Suspilne .
According to Kuleba, the decision to launch flights in Lviv or Boryspil can be implemented within 45–50 days after its adoption. However, passenger safety remains the main condition holding back the resumption of flights.
"The security architecture provides for serious air defense capabilities. Today, they are not enough to ensure airport security," Kuleba noted.
Should we expect flights in 2025?
Answering this question, the minister emphasized that everything depends on the situation at the front:
“The front is a key factor for any development of the country, including air transport.”.
The State Aviation Service of Ukraine is considering the possibility of a phased opening of airspace, and Lviv will likely be the first city where flights may resume.
