Azerbaijan terminates about 10 international night-time flights from July

Heydar Aliyev International Airport has announced that it will not work at nights from July. Maharram Safarli, Press Secretary of Azerbaijan Airlines (AzAL), said the airport will be closed from 12.00 am to 07.00 am as from July 2 in accordance with an order issued by AzAL President Jahangir Asgarov in order to ensure convenience and normal rest of Baku residents at night.

“We have let foreign airlines know about the restriction. State, sanitary, humanitarian and emergency flights will only be allowed during night time,” he added. Several local and foreign airlines based in Azerbaijan told APA-ECONOMICS that a number of international passenger flights are scheduled to take off and land at night.

For example, landings and take-offs of airliners for Baku-Moscow (Rossiya Airline), Baku-Minsk (BelAvia), Instanbul-Baku (Turkish Airlines), London-Baku (BME), Frankfurt-Baku (Lufthansa), Baku-Riga and Riga-Baku (Air Baltiya) and others are scheduled for night-time. The airlines are due to change their schedules from July.
