The international airport in Bryansk is located 5 km from the city center in the vicinity of the Oktyabrsky village. The runway of the airfield is 2.4 kilometers long. Since 1996, the airline has regularly carried out international air transportation. But by the beginning of 2000, all flights, except for charter flights to Turkey and Egypt, were terminated. In 2010, flights to Moscow resumed, but due to the high cost of tickets, the occupancy rate was low, so the air traffic did not improve.
In the near future, regular flights to Moscow and St. Petersburg are planned from the airport in Bryansk, and a special economic program for the development of the airport infrastructure has been developed.
History
In 1934, on the basis of a military airfield, founded in 1927, a civil airport in Bryansk was opened for maintenance and refueling of aircraft traveling from Moscow to Kiev.
In the early 90s, after reconstruction, in the village of Oktyabrskoye, an operating airport was opened, which a year later received the status of an international one. And, since 1996, the airline has been carrying out regular international flights to countries popular among Russian tourists - Turkey, Egypt, Greece, China.
However, since 2000, all international flights (with the exception of Antalya and Hurghada) have been discontinued. Now regular flights remain to St. Petersburg - 3 times a week, and, starting from the end of April, charter flights to Thessaloniki and Antalya are carried out.
In the near future, it is planned to restore flights to Israel, Italy and Spain. The construction of a new terminal with the provision of a wide range of services and the ability to serve more than 1000 people per day is nearing completion.
