Commercial aviation flights were allowed rather recently, on June 2010. However, the infrastructure of the commercial aviation in Ukraine, and specifically in Kyiv region, is very undeveloped and outdated as compared with EU and Russia. There are only one international airport "Boryspil", airport "Zhuliany", airfields in Svyatoshyn on “Aviant” air plant, Tchayka, Gostomel and Vasilkovo around Kyiv today. Nearest airfields are situated in Pryluky, Vinnytsya, Bila Tserkva, Kalynivka, Korytnytsya, Cherkasy, Myrgorod, Nizhyn and Sulytsya. Also there is one helipad on Dolobetsky island for general use and one under construction in Mariinsky park. There is an information on a few private helipads within the city too. According to the helicopters' routes development plan 12 helipads have to be built in Kyiv till 2012. Hospitals and high-rise buildings will mainly be equipped with these helipads. These helipads will create an opportunity for efficient traffic avoiding jams. Helipad network will contribute development of light commercial aviation a lot. Designed heliport should become a basic transport point for commercial helicopters and air taxis in Kyiv.
