The government will invest $25 million more in expanding and modernizing Zaporizhia airport, Prime Minister Honcharuk said Monday, shortly after landing on the newly resurfaced runway. In December, the airport will open a new terminal capable of handling 400 passengers an hour. With Donetsk airport destroyed and Mariupol too close to the war zone, planners believe that Zaporizhia will be the main airport in the 2020s for Ukraine-controlled Donbas. SkyUp launched flights from Zaporizhia to Sharjah on Sunday and to Kyiv Boryspil on Monday. Wizz Air plans to launch flights in March to six EU cities.
