Nedashkovskiy noted that now the operating company of Kharkiv Airport works to expand the network of regular flights from Kharkiv abroad.
Now the company has a preliminary agreement on opening a new route to Prague, Warsaw, Paris, Milan, and to one of German cities - either Dusseldorf, or any other. There is no specificity about Germany yet.
In addition, on December 1 in the new terminal of Kharkiv airport, Ukrainian citizens will be able to receive electronic magnetic card, which will accelerate the process of border control.
