AIP referenceUKOO — Ukraine AIP (State Aviation Service of Ukraine eAIP; publication effectively suspended since the 24 Feb 2022 airspace closure)
Operating hoursClosed to civil aviation since Ukraine's nationwide airspace shutdown on 24 Feb 2022 at the start of Russia's full-scale invasion; no scheduled commercial service since. The rebuilt main runway (16/34) was struck and destroyed by a Russian missile on 30 Apr 2022, only months after its own reopening. Current status is governed by wartime NOTAM within an active conflict zone; no verified public timeline for reactivation or reopening has been confirmed as of Sep 2026.
TerminalsSingle passenger terminal rebuilt in stages during a decade-long project — an arrivals building opened 15 Apr 2017, with the fuller complex (reported variously as roughly 26,000-29,000 sqm, 16-26 check-in desks, 4 jet bridges, target capacity around 1,000 pax/hour / 1.5-3.5 million pax/year) completed by 2019-2020; entirely non-operational since the Feb 2022 closure.

Airport contact
Odesa's runway 16/34 finished a decade-long reconstruction and formally reopened around July 2021 with ILS CAT I capability, only for a Russian Bastion/Onyx missile fired from Crimea to destroy it on 30 Apr 2022 — one of the earliest confirmed strikes on Ukrainian civil airport infrastructure in the full-scale invasion; President Zelensky publicly condemned the strike and pledged a rebuild, but no repair or reopening has been confirmed as of Sep 2026. All commercial flights were suspended on 24 Feb 2022 when Ukraine's airspace closed nationwide; passengers from the city have since used Chisinau Airport in Moldova (roughly 200 km/125 mi away) as the nearest working alternative gateway. The given 1,328,326-passenger figure is the confirmed full-year 2021 total (a reported 90% rebound from roughly 700,000 in 2020) and is carried forward as the last complete pre-closure year — 2021 fell short of the airport's 2019 historic peak (1,694,022 passengers). Odesa is Ukraine's principal Black Sea port city and has remained a frequent target of Russian missile and drone strikes on port, energy and other infrastructure throughout the war, so any reopening timeline stays tied to the wider conflict rather than airport-specific readiness. The odesa.aero site returned a connection error at last check rather than a normal page, consistent with the airport's dormant status; treat ODS as unavailable for airline and diversion planning until Ukrainian civil airspace reopens.
