Odesa airport’s new runway should open by the end of this year, Infrastructure Minister Vladyslav Krikliy told President Zelenskiy Saturday on a tour of the airport. The new 2,800 meter runway is expected to draw more airlines and bigger airplanes. Next year is to see the third and final phase of the project: construction of a $32 million taxi way, reports the Center for Transportation Strategies. Generally, in Ukraine, the state builds and maintains runways and private companies build and maintain terminals.
