Ukrainian airspace will be opened immediately after the end of hostilities and the victory of Ukraine
Today, the Ukrainian information space was stirred by the news of the EUROCONTROL latest forecast that flights in Ukraine are likely to resume only at the end of 2029. We could not ignore such reports, so we are informing you in detail about the forecast preparation specifics and the prospects for opening the Ukrainian sky. The latest published forecast is based on the current situation in the aviation industry and route configuration, namely closure of the Ukrainian airspace for civil flights due to military operations, significant restrictions on flights in the airspace of Moldova (also for security reasons), Russia and Belarus (sanction bans), a significant reduction in flights in Poland, the Baltic and Scandinavian countries, and a respective increase in the flying intensity in the southern and eastern parts of Europe (to overfly closed areas), etc. These factors are expected to be in place until the end of the planning horizon, i.e. until 2029, as there are no other confirmed input data for forecasting to date. However, what is important to understand is that EUROCONTROL does not generate or use military forecasts/analytics/assumptions to create its forecasts. These calculations also do not include other uncertainties, such as unpredictable economic turbulence, escalation of geopolitical tensions, and other unpredictable events that may have a negative impact on aviation development.

The airspace over the territory of Ukraine is open, with the exception of its parts that have been closed since 2014 over the temporarily occupied territory of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the East of the country. No decisions have been made to close the airspace. At the same time, Ukraine officially published aeronautical information about activation of potential danger area in the airspace over the Black Sea from 14.02 to 19.02.2022. Therefore, starting from tomorrow, airlines are advised not to fly over this area for a certain period of time, and to plan optimal routes in advance taking into account the current situation. It should be noted that this recommendation does not block flights in the Black and Azov Seas area in general.
