Nizhnevartovsk Airport is one of the most important transport hubs in West Siberia. It is located nearby in the north-west direction from the city of the same name in the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug.
General information
The development of air transport in the region is an urgent task, since this type of transportation is the most acceptable in terms of price and quality. This explains the growing popularity of air travel.
The West Siberian city of Nizhnevartovsk is a relatively young Russian settlement. Its construction is due to the development of the oil sector of the industry in the region.
On the road leading to the airport from the city, in Soviet times, the Stella was installed - the "Walk of Honor for Aviation", which to this day remains an important city landmark.
Nizhnevartovsk Airport was established back in 1965 on the basis of several AN-2 aircraft and Mi-4 helicopters. After 4 years, by order of the Ministry of Civil Aviation, a specialized enterprise was created - a squadron. In 1971 it was moved to another location, where it remains today.
Since 1972an active build-up of the route network from the Nizhnevartovsk airport begins. First, flights are launched to Tyumen, then to Moscow, Kyiv, Leningrad, Sochi, Simferopol, to the Volga and Ural cities.
By 1981, work on the first reconstruction was completed.
From 1989 to 1990, the second large-scale reconstruction of the air terminal complex was carried out, after which the Nizhnevartovsk airport became capable of receiving Il-86 wide-body aircraft and modern airbuses. Since 1992, the enterprise has had the status of federal significance.
Since 1998, the FAS has assigned the ICAO category No. 1 to the airfield complex. After that, the airport began serving international flights. Now it is able to receive almost any type of aircraft of domestic and foreign production.
Air transport hub status was granted in 2005
