More than 1,000 Ukrainian citizens, who got into difficulty due to the delays and cancellation of a number of AeroSvit's flights, as of 1600 on January 11 had returned to Ukraine from foreign airports.
“The matter concerns such cities as Bangkok, Ho Chi Minh, Tel Aviv, Stockholm, Tashkent, Baku, Warsaw, Budapest, Copenhagen,” the deputy director of the information policy department of the Foreign Affairs Ministry of Ukraine, Vasyl Zvarych, said at a briefing in Kyiv on Friday.
At the same time, Head of the State Aviation Service of Ukraine Anatoliy Kolesnik said that few passengers are to be transported back to their homeland.
“There are passengers in Kazakhstan, but the situation there is under control. A flight will be performed to the country in evening or at night,” he said.
Zvarych, in turn, added that the issue of bringing passengers from Tashkent, Baku and Sofia to Ukraine is being resolved.
“We’re working on the issue and all our ambassadors abroad have been instructed to take the situation under special control,” said Zvarych
