Looking ahead, Ukraine’s air traffic should continue to enjoy double digit annual growth, compared to 3-5% a year for EU countries, according to forecasts by the Montreal-based International Air Transport Association. By 2045, Kyiv Borsypil could more than quadruple its passenger flow, to 54 million, according to Airport Consulting Vienna, the Austrian company that prepared Boryspil’s Strategic Development Plan. Volodymyr Omelyan, an advocate of airline competition and regional airports, notes that only 7% of Ukraine’s population flies today. He says: “But at least 50% can — and should — fly.”
