Repairs at the airport territory will start in 2023 and will last 8-9 months. The main workscope is the airstrip reconstruction. This repair will enable the airport to accommodate airplanes flying more passengers, including the Airbus A320 and A321. While Kyiv Airport cannot accommodate airplanes of such passenger capacity, Wizz Air has to use Boryspil Airport for its flights.

Thanks to reconstruction the airstrip at Kyiv Airport will be increased by 460 meters and will make 2,770 meters. A new concrete pavement of increased stability will replace the old asphalt. An ILS system will be introduced among the innovations. It will allow touchdown under the visibility of at least 350 meters (currently this figure is 800 meters).
