Donetsk airport was opened already in 1933, since then it has been systematically reconstructed, in particular - to the Euro 2012 Championship.
Today the international airport of Donetsk is one of the largest air transport enterprises of Ukraine and serves the city of Donetsk and the adjacent region. After building a new new terminal and reconstructing the old one (for hosting Euro 2012 in Ukraine), its throughput increased to 3,100 people, the passenger traffic - to 5 million people a year, and the strip began to accept all types of aircraft. Why are there to say: the airport is now completely unrecognizable, he seemed to have flown here from some Germany.
Infrastructure
At the moment the airport offers passengers a standard set of services and opportunities. There are cafes, shops (including duty-free), ATMs, airline representative offices, baggage packing point, mother and child's room, health center, recreation areas.
The airport offers the possibility of electronic ticketing and automated baggage search systems. On the territory there is a comfortable hotel, which provides a room and breakfast at a reasonable price (from 350 UAH). For the convenience of passengers arriving from other countries, the consulate office of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry in Donetsk operates at the airport, where you can get permission for a temporary stay in Ukraine.
