Southern Ukraine’s Kherson airport has the best growth prospects for a regional airport in 2019.After passenger traffic grew last year by 69%, to 106,000, airport officials released their development plan to the Center for Transportation Strategies. The airport lists 20 ‘promising destinations’ and targets Belavia and five discount airlines: Wizz Air, Ryanair, Ernest, Pegasus and Moldova’s FlyOne. In addition to talks with Wizz Air and Ryanair, work is underway to create a Kherson-based low cost carrier. Omelyan says “four to five” passenger jets would be based at the airport, the gateway to a dozen increasingly popular Black Sea resorts.
