Restrictions have been introduced at Pulkovo Airport

Flight restrictions have been introduced at St. Petersburg's Pulkovo airport. This was reported on January 4 by the press secretary of the Federal Air Transport Agency (FAA) Artem Korenyako.

"To ensure the safety of civil aircraft flights today from 07:45 Moscow time, temporary restrictions have been imposed on the work of St. Petersburg Pulkovo airport. The air harbor temporarily does not accept and does not send flights," he wrote in his Telegram channel.

Air traffic controllers and airport staff are doing everything necessary to ensure flight safety.

Earlier, on December 23 last year, the departure of 13 flights was delayed at St. Petersburg's Pulkovo airport. Flights were delayed because of reports of pseudomining. Eyewitnesses said that passengers were not let out of the airplanes and were not seated in them.
