Ukraine International moves two jets to Belgrade
NEWS FLASH
Ukraine International Airlines (UIA) has disclosed problems in securing insurance for some of its aircraft due to the ongoing threat of conflict with Russia, forcing the airline to send some of its jets outside of the country, two of which have arrived at Belgrade Airport. “Due to the foreign policy situation, Ukraine International Airlines has received an official notification from insurance companies to terminate the insurance of aircraft for flights in Ukrainian airspace. In that regard, UIA, at the request of lessors, has sent five Boeing 737-800 aircraft to Spain while retaining other aircraft in the company’s fleet. In addition, two of the airline’s aircraft have been sent to Belgrade where they will also undergo engine maintenance”, the company said in a statement. It added, “UIA is making efforts and is constantly negotiating with insurance companies, the Ministry of Infrastructure of Ukraine, as well as the state aviation administration and hopes for mutual understanding”. The two Boeing 737-800 aircraft, which are now at Belgrade Airport, are registered UR-PSM and UR-PSZ. Both are twelve years old.
