Rosaviatsia Cycles Short-Term Airport Restrictions as Saratov Drone Alert Triggers Delay

The regulator says brief arrival and departure limits are needed for flight safety.

Overview

  • On November 11, Rosaviatsia announced fresh temporary limits on arrivals and departures at the airports of Penza, Saratov, Samara’s Kurumoch, and Orenburg.
  • Saratov faced a renewed unmanned aerial vehicle threat, with Governor Roman Busargin issuing warnings and sirens sounding in Saratov and Engels.
  • Saratov’s Gagarin airport reported one Moscow-bound flight delayed during a second round of restrictions, with no passenger crowding in the terminal.
  • Airports continued passenger check-in, baggage processing, and ground handling during the measures, according to official communications.
  • Several notices were lifted shortly after issuance, including an overnight removal at Kaluga and later rescissions at Penza and Saratov, following earlier November 10 lifts at Tambov, Ufa, and Samara.
