On May 1, 2026, Russia's Federal Air Transport Agency (Rosaviatsiya) announced via its official Telegram channel that operations at Kaluga (Grabstevo) Airport would be temporarily restricted. Under the measure, the airport will not accept or permit the takeoff of flights during the restriction period.
Details on the end time of the restrictions and the specific reasons have yet to be disclosed. Rosaviatsiya stated it would update the public with further information as it becomes available.
Kaluga Airport is located in southwestern Russia, approximately 160 kilometers from Moscow. The restrictions are likely to affect domestic and international flights scheduled to or from the area.
