UKLN - Chernivtsi Leonid Kadeniuk Intl Airport

Chernivtsi-Leonid Kadeniuk International Airport is an airport in the city of Chernivtsi in western Ukraine. IATA: CWC ICAO: UKLN

The current airport was designed at the beginning of the 1930s and inaugurated on 24 May 1933. The terminal building was designed by Romanian architect Constantin Dragu.

An international route opened on 28 March 1937, when LOT Polish Airlines and LARES began operating a service between Palestine and Poland: Lydda – Rhodos – Athens – Thessaloniki – Sofia – Bucharest – Cernăuți – Lwow – Warsaw. Both airlines used Lockheed L-10A Electra aircraft for this route, later supplemented by the Savoia-Marchetti SM.83.

On 15 June 1938, the domestic route Cernăuți – Cluj – Arad was launched, operated with Lockheed Electra, Savoia-Marchetti S.73, and later Douglas B-23 Dragon aircraft.

During the Soviet period, flights connected Chernivtsi with various cities of the USSR, such as Kyiv, Odessa, Moscow, and others. Aircraft used included the Yak-40, Yak-42, and An-24, with An-12s operating cargo transfers.

In September 2018, the airport was named after Ukrainian astronaut Leonid Kadeniuk.
