Although President Zelenskiy and Prime Minister Honcharuk may fly into Mariupol, the city airport is largely restricted to military flights. Located 30 km west of the front line, the airport is considered too close to the war zone for commercial passenger flights. In one sign of an easing, Eleron Airlines is now making test cargo flights to Mariupol, for Nova Poshta, the private delivery service. Flying An-26s, Eleron flies to far-flung cities that are impractical to reach overnight by truck.
