Pulkovo Delays Under Prosecutor Oversight as Rosaviatsia Cycles Short-Term Airport Limits

Regulators are toggling short-term airport limits for safety.

Overview

  • St. Petersburg’s Pulkovo has 34 outbound flights delayed under review by the North‑West Transport Prosecutor’s Office, which cites late arrivals and weather as factors.
  • Pulkovo says both runways are operating, most delays stem from late inbound aircraft, and nine Kaliningrad‑bound flights diverted there.
  • Kaliningrad’s Khrabrovo trims delays to 25 with six cancellations in the morning and aims to resume normal operations by evening if conditions stabilize.
  • Rosaviatsia briefly imposed then lifted restrictions at Gelendzhik, Krasnodar, Ivanovo, and Yaroslavl, while new short‑term limits were introduced at Saratov’s Gagarin airport.
  • Separately, Blagoveshchensk marked its millionth passenger as a new terminal handled its first regular test flights ahead of wider commissioning in 2026.
