Stages of reconstruction

Before the end of World War II, the terminal was reconstructed for a long time, since there was no stone left on it.

Only in 1977, experienced architects gave the Rostov airport a view that turned it into one of the city's main attractions.

At the same time, time does not stand still, and the existing architectural appearance of the airport is somewhat morally obsolete - it does not correspond to the spirit of the modern era. Taking this into account , the Rostov airport administration decided to modernize the transport infrastructure. The territory of the departure hall was enlarged to foreign destinations, and in 2007 the reconstruction of the arrival hall of the international communication was completed. It was also replaced with modern equipment for check-in, check-in luggage, document checks, and a waiting room equipped with TVs, a bar and buffets.

As a result of the above-mentioned transformations, Rostov-on-Don airport has become a modern competitive transport platform, which currently serves about 800 passengers per hour.

On the territory of the object with an area of more than 17,000 square meters, there are offices of air carrier offices, ticket sales offices, halls for delegations and official meetings, kiosks with souvenir and printed products, ATMs and currency exchange offices. Nearby there is a hotel for settling guests of the city, which provides a room for mother and child.

The airport building has a very convenient location. From the city center to the above-mentioned transport infrastructure the trolleybus №9, fixed-route taxi № 7а, 85,95 is running.
