Kyiv International Airport (Zhulyany) IEV / UKKK

Kyiv, Kyiv City · Ukraine · Municipal (communal) enterprise 'International Airport Kyiv (Zhulyany)', a KP (Komunalne Pidpryyemstvo) of the Kyiv city authority rather than a state enterprise — the airfield and core infrastructure are communal property of the City of Kyiv, administered via Kyiv City Council / Kyiv City State Administration. The three passenger terminals (Terminal A opened 2012; the domestic and business terminals opened 2013) were built and have historically run under separate private concession/management arrangements, most visibly tied to Ukrainian developer Vasyl Khmelnytsky's UDP Group. All civil flight operations have been suspended since 24 Feb 2022.

AIP referenceUKKK — Ukraine's civil airspace, including UKKK, has been closed under a nationwide NOTAM since 24 Feb 2022 per State Aviation Service of Ukraine communications; no active State Aviation Service of Ukraine eAIP publication for UKKK was confirmed as being maintained, consistent with the wartime airspace closure.

Operating hoursClosed to all civil aviation since 24 Feb 2022, when Russia's full-scale invasion triggered a nationwide NOTAM shutting Ukrainian civil airspace; no reopening date has been published as of Sep 2026. Pre-war, Zhulyany kept limited daytime hours rather than H24 given its in-city location near residential areas, though the exact published schedule was not independently reconfirmed for this record.

TerminalsPre-war layout: Terminal A (international, opened 17 May 2012), a domestic terminal, and a dedicated business-aviation terminal (both opened 2013), replacing the original Soviet-era terminal building. All three sat under private management on municipally owned land; none has handled scheduled civil traffic since the Feb 2022 closure.

Airport contact

iev.aero

Kyiv's smaller, close-in second airport (7 km southwest of the centre), historically used for domestic, regional, low-cost and business aviation while Boryspil (KBP) carried the bulk of long-haul international traffic. On 22 March 2018 Kyiv City Council officially renamed it 'International Airport Kyiv (Zhulyany) Igor Sikorsky' — this is now the airport's official/database name in most current references, though 'Zhulyany' remains the common everyday name in wide use. The 1,418,153 passengers recorded is the confirmed full-year 2021 total, the last complete year of civil operation before Russia's invasion halted all flights on 24 Feb 2022; it is corroborated by a rounded ~1,418,000 (2021) figure independently reported for the airport, though English Wikipedia's own statistics table still stops at 2020 (690,300) and does not carry a 2021 row. No independently verified reports of missile or drone strike damage to the runway or terminal buildings were found; the airport is reported by non-English secondary sourcing to have been repurposed to host Ukrainian air-defense assets since the invasion, but this could not be corroborated via English-language sourcing and should be treated as unverified. No confirmed reopening plan or date exists as of Sep 2026, so the airport and Ukrainian civil airspace as a whole remain closed with zero civil traffic. No confirmed current operating phone or email could be verified given the airport's dormant status. The iev.aero domain (apex, no www) remains live and returns an actual pre-war/early-war site snapshot rather than a blocked page — its own news feed's most recent item is the airport's 24 Feb 2022 closure notice and its footer copyright reads '2011-2021,' indicating the site has not been updated since the invasion; the www subdomain instead returns a 404. Any phone numbers shown on that frozen site are pre-invasion legacy contact info, not confirmed as currently staffed.
