Odesa International Airport

Odesa International Airport is an airport located in Odesa, Ukraine, providing passenger and cargo air transport services. It operates runways, terminals, and support facilities for domestic and international flights. The airport serves travelers from the Odesa region and connects to various destinations across Europe and beyond. It also handles freight and mail shipments, supporting regional trade and tourism. The facility includes amenities such as passenger lounges, retail outlets, and parking areas. It functions under the oversight of Ukrainian civil aviation authorities.

As the primary international gateway for the city of Odesa, the airport plays a notable role in the region's transportation network. Its location on the Black Sea coast gives it strategic importance for both tourism and commerce. The airport has been recognized for maintaining operations despite regional challenges. In October 2017, Odesa International Airport was affected by the Bad Rabbit ransomware attack, which disrupted its systems alongside other Ukrainian transportation entities. The attack highlighted the airport's exposure to cyber threats and the need for robust cybersecurity measures. Researchers observed the attackers' infrastructure becoming inactive shortly after the outbreak, though the incident highlighted ongoing risks of fake software update campaigns.
