It is essential for the airport - said Alexander BORODIN. -The more dynamic business and social life, the stronger economy and higher people's income, the more intensive people's mobility. And it directly affects on the operation of the airport, on the growth of passenger traffic. Positive trends are already evident. For example, in 2011 the number of passengers at the Tolmachevo airport reached 2,766,000 people, which is 22.3% more than in 2010.
