A roadblock to restoring air service to Uzhgorod, the nation’s most distant airport from Kyiv

A roadblock to restoring air service to Uzhgorod, the nation’s most distant airport from Kyiv, was removed Tuesday when the European Aviation Safety Agency signed an agreement with Ukraine’s air traffic control agency for an audit of Uzhgorod, Zakarpattia’s only airport. All flights in an out of the single strip airport go over Slovakia, giving the EU power to check on safety and procedures.
