Belbek Airport is located on the seacoast, in the city of Sevastopol.
A bit of history
In 1941, when this heavenly mooring wasonly built, used it only for military purposes. And approximately since 1985, when Gorbachev began to fly frequently to the presidential dacha, Belbek airport began to accept civilian aircraft.
Now Sevastopol's wharf is used for military and civil purposes. And since 2002, the airport has a license that allows international transportation.
How to get there
Belbek Airport is a short distance from Sevastopol, 50 kilometers from Simferopol and 95 kilometers from Yalta.
You can get to the airport from Sevastopol onbus, which goes here about every 30 minutes. From the north side of this city to Belbek usually get with transplants: first by boat, and then again by bus. The time for such a journey will be about 40-50 minutes.
More about everything
Belbek Airport is equipped with a three-kilometer runway, which can receive aircraft of all types.
The last two decades the airport worked extremelyunstable, and for a while it was even closed. Perhaps this is due to the recent crisis. Only in 2010 the Sevastopol sky pier resumed its work, and its first passengers were guests who arrived from Dnepropetrovsk.
According to Belbek's management plans, in the near futuretime here will build a new, more spacious terminal, expand the range of services and attract new air carriers. A corporate website will also be created, where you can find all the interesting information about Belbek (airport). The schedule of the next flights and ticket prices will also be available to all visitors on-line.

But despite this, many people have already fallen in love with Belbek airport. The schedule of flights 2013-2014 says that this air berth is still used!
And his main advantage is that heis very close to Sevastopol. In addition, as many tourists note, cleanliness and order are maintained here at the proper level, and there is also no noise and fuss. In general, the place is quite calm, with a measured pace of life and a calming atmosphere.

Of course, today this heavenly berth of Sevastopolhardly be able to seriously compete with the main airport of Simferopol. There, the largest airlines that fly in different directions, offer their potential passengers a much more favorable conditions.
But it will still be!Who knows, maybe when the Belbek airport is improved, it will become the most popular air haven of this republic and will be able to compete seriously with other "colleagues"!
