2. Egypt - 1685 flights;
3. Turkey - 1219 flights;
4. Tunisia - 675 flights;

Due to the closure of the skies over Ukraine, the airlines created a hub at Chisinau Airport. This was made possible by basing 5 passenger aircraft of Ukrainian airlines SkyUp and Windrose at this airport.
It is important to note that the aircraft of the former UIA, which went bankrupt, continues to operate from Chisinau, and continues to fly the flag of Ukraine on board, retaining its previous registration.
We remind you! Despite the cancellation of flights, Ukrainian airlines are taking measures to ensure their operations and retain their staff. Find out more about where Ukrainian airlines have established hubs and continue to operate.
