Belgorod International Airport (IATA: EGO, ICAO: UUOB) is a regional civil airport serving the city of Belgorod, the administrative center of Belgorod Oblast in southwestern Russia. Located approximately 8 kilometers from the city center, it handles both domestic and limited international traffic. The airport has historically served routes connecting Belgorod to Moscow and other Russian cities, primarily operated by carriers such as Aeroflot and its regional affiliates. Its 'International' designation reflects its customs and border control capabilities, though the volume of international flights has been limited. Operations at the airport have been significantly affected by the conflict in Ukraine, which began in February 2022, given Belgorod's proximity to the Ukrainian border. Russian authorities imposed flight restrictions in the region, severely curtailing or suspending commercial operations.
