Reconstruction of the runway in Kharkov International Airport/ Реконструкция взлетной полосы в Харьковском аэропорту

December 26, 2011: Kharkov International Airport formally put into operation most of the lighting and navigation equipment for the new runway. This will allow use of the airport to its full capacity, in particular, the new system will be able to take more complex aircraft at all times and also operate in bad weather conditions.

This will mean the reduction of flight restrictions will be lifted. During the last week of December flights will be resumed with ; Air Arabia (Sharjah-Khakov flight), flydubai (flight Kharkov-Dubai), UIA (Hurghada - Kharkov - Sharm el-Sheikh), which were canceled due to the repair of the old runway and the commissioning of a new runway and lighting. Also improved flights with Pegasus Airways (Kharkov- Istanbul).

In addition, in the near future scheduled flights on the route Kharkov to Moscow will be using the largest Russian airline "Transaero". As previously reported, the new runway international airport "Kharkov" took first flight November 29, 2011. This event marked the completion of three years of large-scale construction work on the airport.

The length of the new runway is 2,500 meters, which allows Kharkov International Airport to take both mid-range aircraft from Boeing and Airbus. Kharkov International Airport website link: http://hrk.aero/en/

26 декабря 2011 года официально введена в эксплуатацию основная часть светосигнального и радионавигационного оборудования новой взлетно-посадочной полосы Международного аэропорта «Харьков». Это позволит использовать ее с полной нагрузкой, в частности, новая полоса аэродромного комплекса сможет принимать воздушные суда в любое время суток и в плохих погодных условиях.

Учитывая это обстоятельство, введенные ранее ограничения полетов сняты. В последнюю неделю декабря будут возобновлены рейсы авиакомпаний Air Arabia (рейс Харьков-Шарджа), flydubai (рейс Харьков-Дубаи), МАУ (рейсы Харьков – Хургада, Харьков – Шарм-эль-Шейх), которые были отменены из-за работ, связанных с ремонтом старой и введением в эксплуатацию новой ВПП. Кроме того, в ближайшее время регулярные рейсы по маршруту Харьков – Москва начнет выполнять крупнейшая российская авиакомпания «Трансаэро».

Как уже сообщалось, новая взлетно-посадочная полоса Международного аэропорта «Харьков» приняла первые рейсы 29 ноября 2011 года. Данное событие ознаменовало завершение трехлетнего периода крупномасштабных строительных работ по реконструкции одного из важнейших объектов транспортной инфраструктуры Слобожанщины. Ранее были сданы в эксплуатацию привокзальная площадь и новый пассажирский терминал (оба – лето 2010 года), а также VIP-корпус и временный аэровокзал (оба – осень 2011 года). Длина новой ВПП составляет 2500 м, что позволяет ей принимать среднемагистральные воздушные суда Boeing и Airbus.

Most expensive tickets for UEFA EURO 2012 almost fully sold out

The 2010-12 UEFA European Football Championship consists of three stages: the qualifying group stage, the play-offs and the 16-team final tournament in Poland and Ukraine from 8 June to 1 July 2012.

Qualifying group stage

The 51 entrants were drawn into nine groups, six of six teams and three of five. Matches are played on a home-and-away basis between 3 September 2010 and 11 October 2011. The nine winners and the runner-up with the best record against the top five sides in their pool qualify directly for the final tournament. The eight remaining runners-up enter the play-offs.

Play-offs

The four sides with the best UEFA national team coefficient ranking will be seeded with a draw determining the pairing and order of home and away ties. The first legs will be played on 11 or 12 November and the returns on 15 November. The teams which score the greater aggregate of goals in each tie qualify for the finals, with away goals and then penalties used to determine the winner in the event of a draw.

Final tournament

Poland and Ukraine will be placed in the first pot of four, along with holders Spain if they qualify, for the final tournament draw. The remaining teams will be ranked as per coefficients, and will be drawn into four groups of four teams with the top two reaching the quarter-finals. The competition is then played as a straight knockout.

Further details, including the criteria for separating teams that finish level on points in a group, or after extra time in a match, can be found in the official competition regulations.
