Ukraine is actively preparing to reopen its airspace to commercial flights for the first time since 2022.
There is growing optimism that at least one airport, likely Lviv (though Kyiv Boryspil has not been ruled out) could reopen first, potentially on a limited basis. Officials say the country’s aviation infrastructure is “largely prepared” to resume flights, though with continued Russian drone and missile attacks, I’m not sure so certain.
Airlines are watching closely. European carriers including Ryanair, Wizz Air, and others have already expressed interest in returning as soon as airspace reopens and I suspect the demand is there to resume service, even though operations would be an elevated risk.
