Boryspil airport managers caution that ‘an avalanche-growth’ in air traffic will only happen when Ukrainians get more spending money. “It’s too early to talk about the avalanche-like growth of the aviation market of Ukraine,” the airport’s press service tells Interfax-Ukraine. “This effect is possible only with a sharp increase in the solvency of the population.” Without waiting for that magic moment, Wizz Air carried 1.2 million passengers on its 41 Ukraine routes through October – double the number carried during the first 10 months of last year. Traffic at Wizz Air’s Ukraine base, Kyiv Sikorsky, was up 67% last year.
