Future expansion

In preparation for Euro 2012, Lviv International Airport is to undergo a $200m expansion project. Of the $200m, it is expected that the Ukrainian government will provide $70m, including $14m in 2008, and $130m will come from private investors. The expansion project will include a 700 metre extension of the existing runway and a new airport terminal capable of handling up to 1,220 passengers per hour (5.69 million annually).

To accommodate this, restrictions have been put into place:

1. The airport will be closed on Tuesdays (effective 24JAN 26MAR) to permit expansion. All airlines have cancelled Tuesday flights to/from Lviv.

2. Some airlines have been using smaller aircrafts (notable, Lufthansa has switched from CRJ-900 to ARJ-85). LOT and have resumed flights on B737, A319. Ukraine International Airlines have resumed its LWO-MAD service on B737.

3. On the 22nd of November 2011 Wizz Air announced to resume their flights to Dortmund and Venice-Treviso by the end of March 2012.</ref>

The new terminal has been put into trial operation since late December 2011; it is to be opened in March 2012.
