Ukraine’s air traffic control agency will run out of money in two weeks

Ukraine’s air traffic control agency will run out of money in two weeks, the agency, UkSATSE, warns on its Telegram channel. With air traffic and overflights down 90% since mid-March, the agency will need a $37 million loan or budgetary grant to get through the year. Last year, the controllers handled 335,400 flights, an 11.5% increase over 2018. After a normal January and February, air passenger traffic through Ukrainian airports ended up dropping 35.5% y-o-y for the first four months, to 4 million people.
