Komsomolsk-on-Amur is a city in the Far East. This is an economically significant settlement for the country, where military aircraft, submarines, ships, oil products are produced. The distance between Khurba airport and Komsomolsk-on-Amur is small, only 17 kilometers, but it is not too easy for departing passengers to overcome it.

Khurba Airport

It was created during the war for the takeoff/landing of military aircraft. The first runway was only 810 m - this was enough for small military aircraft. Despite this purpose, an apron for passengers and the premises of the terminal itself were built.

In Soviet times, many planes took off from here, mainly heading to the cities of the Far East. Since the collapse of the Union and until the end of the 20th century, passenger planes practically did not fly to the city of Yunost. Very rarely, only transport to the capital was sent.

Transportation of passengers was resumed only in 2009. Almost all flights were made by the companyVladivostok Air, ferrying travelers on Tu-204 planes.

In 2012, an agreement was signed with the Yakutia company, which began to deliver Komsomol members and guests of the city to the country's capital on a Boeing.

Until 2015, Komsomolsk-on-Amur Airport carried passengers to Moscow through Wim Avia. However, at the end of the year, she refused orders due to the unprofitability of the flight.

Currently, a company from St. Petersburg bought the airport. Komsomolsk-on-Amur hopes that now this air hub will be brought into proper shape, and the planes will make regular flights and generate income. In addition, the citizens believe that the delivery of departing and arriving passengers to the city by public transport will be arranged.

The airport is not popular with carriers, so there are practically no infrastructure facilities on its territory. However, the terminal may offer passengers:

• improved lounge;
• shop;
• cafe.

The nearest hotels are located 15 km from the airport. Hotels closest to you:

• "Space";
• "Sunrise";
• "City";
• "Trucker".

There are three ways to get from the city to the airport, which will be discussed now.

Bus

Today, it is not so easy for residents of the city of Yunost to get to the airport. Komsomolsk-on-Amurhas only one bus route that runs in this direction - No. 102. The cars of this route are outdated models, shaky and uncomfortable - they carry numerous summer residents to gardening societies. The airport is the end point of the route.

To get out of Khurba, you can wait for a city bus or try to stop bus number 220 from Amursk on the highway.

Car

Quickly and comfortably you can get to the airport by private car. Komsomolsk-on-Amur is located very close to Khurba - this distance can be overcome in good weather in 15-20 minutes. In winter, after heavy snowfalls, the journey will take longer, but it will still be less than the bus cost.

However, this method is not suitable for those who have no one to see them off and who drive their own car. The fact is that there is no secure parking near the airport. The car will have to be left directly at the airport terminal, and there is no guarantee that it will wait for you to return.

Taxi

Taxi will reach the airport without any problems. Numerous Komsomol taxi companies will be happy to take the passenger to the airport terminal at any time and with any amount of luggage. However, the cost of such a trip, especially in winter, will be quite high.

If you need to get to Komsomolsk-on-Amur Airport, how to get there is not such a big problem. Anyway, there are many options.
