Zhytomyr International Airport (Ukrainian: Міжнародний аеропорт «Житомир») (ICAO: UKKV) is an airport in Zhytomyr, Ukraine.
History
The airport started operating in 1939. But in November 2011 it was stripped from its registration as civil airport because it had not received any airplanes since 1990. On 30 December 2015 the airport again received an airport certificate and reopened on 29 January 2016, with the (technical) flight of a Saab 340. Maintenance for the fleet of Yanair is provided at Zhytomyr Airport.
