On Monday 28 September 2026, Rosaviatsia again imposed temporary arrival and departure restrictions at several Russian civilian airports — a new regional wave after the overnight Sochi cycle on 27 September, centred on the Volga and nearby fields rather than the Black Sea coast alone.
What travellers saw
According to Rosaviatsia statements relayed by Interfax and RIA Novosti, temporary limits on accepting and releasing aircraft were introduced at Samara (Kurumoch) and Saratov (Gagarin). The same messaging stream also cited temporary limits at Kaluga. Rosaviatsia said the measures were required for flight safety. Separately, Moscow Vnukovo operated under coordinated clearances earlier in the morning, with later updates saying temporary limits there had been lifted — schedule changes remained possible while boards caught up. Passengers on Samara, Saratov and Kaluga sectors should re-check airline apps and airport boards before leaving for the terminal.
If the schedule is critical
When regional hubs open and close on short notice, same-day connections leave little slack. If you cannot wait for restrictions to lift, a private jet or empty leg into an alternate field may be workable once slots reopen. Rahizi qualifies the brief and returns partner options.
