Belgorod International Airport Status
Belgorod is one of a cluster of airports in southwestern and southern Russia (alongside Anapa, Bryansk, Kursk, Lipetsk, Voronezh and others) that have had scheduled passenger flights suspended since February 2022 because of the airspace restrictions over the region. The airport sits roughly 40 km from the border.
As of 2026 the airport has not reopened. Regional officials have said it is technically ready to resume operations once the airspace reopens, but no restart date has been announced, and the closure is a federal airspace decision rather than a problem with the airport itself.
Because there are no scheduled passenger operations, any earlier description of an indoor smoking room no longer applies. If and when the airport reopens, we will update this page with verified smoking facilities. Check your airline and the latest official status before planning travel to the Belgorod region.
