Airport contact
Belarus's principal international gateway and Belavia's hub, but Western air links remain severed: the EU, UK and Switzerland barred Belavia from their airspace and airports from May 2021 after the forced diversion of Ryanair Flight 4978 to Minsk, Ukraine has closed its airspace to Belarusian traffic since Feb 2022, and no EU/UK/US/Ukrainian carrier has returned; scheduled traffic since has skewed toward Russia, the CIS, the Middle East, Turkiye and China. Current foreign carriers are Aeroflot, Pobeda, Red Wings, Azimuth and Severstal Avia (Russia), SCAT Airlines (Kazakhstan), Somon Air (Tajikistan), Uzbekistan Airways, flydubai and Air China; VietJet Air runs a seasonal Da Nang charter. Turkish Airlines' Istanbul service is currently suspended, with a resumption dated 20 September 2026 that had not yet begun as of this record. Two concrete runways: the original 1983 strip (13R/31L, 3,641m) supports ILS CAT I or CAT II depending on approach direction, while the parallel runway added in May 2019 (13L/31R, 3,700m) carries new lighting and navigation equipment certified to ILS CAT IIIA. The 2,497,631 pax figure is the last officially confirmed full-year total (2023, +21% year on year) — no official full-year 2024 or 2025 total has been published; a circulating H1-2024 figure of roughly 1.36 million (+8.5% year on year) is a secondary-source estimate, not an official annual total.

De-icing
Seasonal
RUE "National Airport Minsk"
Belarus's continental climate (snow/ice typically November-March) makes winter de/anti-icing a standard requirement at this airport. Coverage falls within the same IATA SGHA Annex A aircraft-servicing scope referenced in the airport's standard one-time ground-handling contract template, but no separately branded de-icing unit or tariff is published, so the operating detail beyond "seasonal, in-house" is unconfirmed.

Aircraft cleaning
Unconfirmed
RUE "National Airport Minsk"
Aircraft cabin cleaning is not separately advertised, but the airport's standard aircraft ground-handling contract explicitly incorporates "the Main Agreement and Annex A of the Standard Ground Handling Agreement (SGHA, January 2018) published by IATA" as if fully repeated - IATA SGHA Annex A's standard scope includes aircraft cleaning/servicing - so this is inferred contractual coverage rather than a confirmed standalone service line.
