Moscow's Vnukovo Airport has temporarily restricted the acceptance and dispatch of flights, Rosaviatsia's press service said on its Telegram channel, as cited by Kommersant.
According to the agency's statement, the airport continues to operate, but departures and arrivals are now being coordinated with the relevant authorities. Such a regime is usually introduced for security reasons and involves a temporary adjustment to the schedules of individual flights.
What is known
Rosaviatsia's statement does not specify the reasons for the restrictions or give an exact timeframe for how long they will remain in effect. The agency limited itself to stating that the airport is operating under a special flight-coordination regime.
Similar measures have been introduced repeatedly at Russian airports in recent times and are generally temporary, being lifted once the circumstances that prompted them are resolved. Passengers planning to depart from or arrive at Vnukovo are advised to check the current status of their flights with their airlines.
As of publication, no official data had been released on the number of delayed or cancelled flights.
