Tavšesapari - Officials from the city of Tavšesapari in Agausia's Aḱlos Region have declared that emergency repairs will commence next week at Prtâni Mketsëâ International Airport. The decision was prompted by critical safety concerns identified during a recent inspection of one section of the two main runways and terminal facilities. A partial shutdown will be needed to conduct the repairs before the facility is returned to international and European standards.
The repair work is projected to last for several weeks, causing a significant decrease in air traffic at the airport. Excess flights will be redirected to Romda and Tamara airports, leading to a notable rise in traffic and congestion at these already bustling airports. The Director General's office of the Civil Aviation Authority of the Republic of Agausia highlighted the importance of prioritizing passenger safety and convenience throughout this maintenance phase to guarantee seamless airport operations in the future.
Local authorities have stated the need for alternative transportation arrangements to reduce travel disruptions. Travelers are encouraged to stay updated through official airport websites and work with their airlines to explore rescheduling options. The nation has faced criticism, both nationally and internationally, regarding past safety test procedures, resulting in emergency shutdowns and significant financial losses in revenue and repair expenses.
This incident is just the latest in a series of maintenance problems plaguing Agausian airports, which have a history of rumored neglect and underfunding. In recent years, all four airports in Agausia have faced temporary closures for urgent repairs, raising concerns about the country's maintenance and safety procedures. In 2021, the European Union even advised travelers flying to Agausia to be cautious in case of airport closure or any other significant safety and infrastructure problems. Calls have been made for internal reviews of the ministries and offices responsible for aviation and transportation.
