Dnipro International Airport is an older airport that has faced criticism for its inability to operate flights during inclement weather conditions. Even slight disruptions like fog, snow, or rain can result in immediate flight cancellations. Unfortunately, both the airport and local airlines do not handle these situations well, with a lack of information, mitigation actions, and comfort for passengers. Unless you take the initiative to find your own solutions, you may be left alone as a passenger without any assistance. Despite this, the check-in and security staff are commended for their kindness and helpfulness. The airport lacks amenities and has an old Soviet-style appearance. However, it is hoped that the airport will be rebuilt soon. There have been mixed reviews about the airport's cleanliness and functionality, with some praising it as new, modern, and state-of-the-art, while others describe it as non-friendly, dark, and in need of renovation. For foreign travelers, it can be challenging to reach Dnipro Airport without going through double bag collection, double security checks, and potential stress in Kiev. It is recommended to consider taking a train instead. The airport is small but generally receives positive feedback for its helpful and friendly staff.

Don't fly to/from Dnipro in fall-winter.
The airport is simply unable to operate flights under even a slight weather disruption. Fog, snow, rain, or simply - 1°C - flights are immediately cancelled. And the way the airport and local airlines.. Read more » handle such situations is the worst you can imagine: no information provided, no mitigation actions are undertaken, no comfort offered for awaiting passengers. Unless you take initiative to find your own way around, to solve the issue, you will be left alone as a passenger because no airport staff will attend to you. Out of a dozen or so flights to/from Dnipro that I ever have had to take during fall-winter season, none of them went smoothly!
The airport administration, if at all being interested in improving the quality of their service, should seriously invest in a proper runway maintenance system and in client-oriented policies.
P.S. Worth mentioning that the staff at check-in and security check are fantastic! Always kind, helpful and understanding.
Why cannot the same attitude be spread over all other airport services?

Old airport with no toilet on the first floor. Hopefully soon will be rebuilt. But all the stuff is helpful

After all the reviews I'd seen, i was a little apprehensive of flying vs train but the experience was good for arrival and departure except for them removing my water bottle when i see others with water bottles.

I just cannot give a five or four stars to airport building, that was builded at 60-s in past century. The renovation that it undergo at past years is cosmetically only. The terminal is very non-friendly, dark and rubbish.

This is review for foreign travelers: there is no way of getting to Dnipro Airport from or to abroad without double bag collection, double security check and stress in Kiev. Avoid at all price. Take a train from/to Kiev instead. To be fair, the worke.. Read more »rs at the airport are very sweet and helpful, so for travelling domestically it should be fine.

It is an old terminal but the personnel was attentive and polite regardless the stressful situation of many detoured flights arriving to this airport.

The worst airport. I dread flying out of DNK every time. Bribes are expected/demanded on almost every step. On entry: passport control - the slowest in Ukraine. On exit: they make up their own rules about what can be transported, disregard the countr.. Read more »y rules (no written form of which can be found) - even if shown official custom laws, they are fully disregarded. Needless to say, rude, but that is true about the general city disposition.

Well... it exists and is operational. And that is all what I can say. Ok, the security people and those who are working at check-in points are nice.

Probably the worst airport in Ukraine. You can wait a long time to receive your luggage after flight.
Hope Dnipro will have better airport in the future.

The first time in my life things bought in duty free - in my case bottle of water - are not allowed on a plane. Hand luggage is checked before going to the gate again, after checking at the beginning with the argument "you buy stuff in the duty .. Read more »free shop". Like they don't know WHAT they sell in the shop, which is one there and which is small!
Stuff doesn't understand what is politeness and for this bottle of water I received a huge scandal. An old woman before me, who reasonably asked why we are checked the second time, received terrible attitude! For me workers of airport who scream on a passenger and call (not directly) them stupid... I am shocked!
I am from Dnipro, it was my first flight from this airport and I tell you, people, NEVER GO FROM THERE IF YOU CAN! I don't care that airport is not in the best state, don't care that it's small, but personnel should be polite and English speaking everywhere. Don't want to behave yourself? Do not work with people! And was funny to see how the person from the passenger information desk was not able to speak English at all. 21 century!!!

Dnipropetrovsk's airport is small but functional. I thought the staff was friendly and I had no problems whatsoever.
