The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) warns of the dangers to flight operations in the airspace of the russian federation. This is stated in the new CZIB No. 2025-01 aimed at increasing the safety of flights in the European region. The document applies to flights in the airspace of the russian federation and enters into force immediately for the respective Flight Information Regions: Moscow, Rostov-na Donu, Sankt-Petersburg, Yekaterinburg and Samara. As a result, EASA, as the main aviation safety regulator in Europe, strongly recommends not to operate within the affected airspace of the russian federation located west of longitude 60° East at all altitudes and flight levels. This applies not only to EU operators, but also to third-country airlines authorised by EASA, when conducting operations to, from and within the EU.
