Mariupol International Airport ((ウクライナ語:Міжнародний аеропорт Маріуполь), (ロシア語:Международный аэропорт Мариуполь)) is a primary airport of Mariupol, which is located 5km from the city. Since 19 June 2014 the airport is closed.〔(Three airports in the East Ukraine closed until better times ). Ukrinform. 19 June 2014〕 The airport is situated on the extreme south-eastern part of Ukraine near the border with Russia. The airport serves a large industrial city and the port on the Sea of Azov, linking it to other regions of the country. The airport has domestic, international and charter flights covering the CIS countries, Europe and the Middle East. The airport is a Class "B" airfield suitable for the operation of aircraft of all types (categories A, B, C, D, and E). ==History and Development== The airport's history began in 1930 when project Mariupol Airport started (officially named ''Zhdanov Airport'' (Аеропорт ) at the time of construction because city was named Zhdanov until 1989). The first flight was made on a Putilov Stal-3 from Mariupol to Berdyansk in the spring of 1931. However, due to economic problems the airport was inactive until the autumn of 1932, for the same reason the airport could not establish regular flights before the beginning of the World War II. In 1967, airport underwent new constructions with the runway and the airport terminal. In its heyday (and during the Soviet Era) the airport transported up to 120,000 passengers a year. There were 30 to 40 flights a day, and during the summer the airport served up to 25,000 passengers per month. However, after the collapse of Soviet Union, and Fall of Aeroflot (which was the primary airline that serviced the airport) the airline-service and passenger-travel declined and airport became inactive for some time. Until 1993, the airport was a member of the Donetsk United Squadron, and On May 26, 1993, Mariupol Airport was registered as a state enterprise. Revival began when construction started on new terminal building, which was launched in February 2003 to a handle passengers up to 200+ per hour. With construction of the new terminal, new ramp was constructed, and runway underwent some minor repairs with instillation of ILS on runway 20. In 2004, the airport transported over 11,000 passengers. In 2006, 18,000 passengers were transported, and in 2007 more than 20,000. On May 26, 2004 the airport received the status of International Airport, and on November 7, 2005 the State Aviation Administration of Ukraine issued the Certificate of Conformity (''MCI-00-04-02-01'') which allowed airport to service airlines, passengers, and air cargo.〔( History and Development ) - Retrieved on October 17, 2011.〕〔( Airport today ) - Retrieved on October 17, 2011.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mariupol International Airport」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
