Director General's Address on Occassion of Vnukovo Airport's 70th Anniversary
Dear Friends,
Please accept my heartfelt congratulations on the occasion of Vnukovo Airport's 70th Anniversary.
The Airport's history has invariably been a rich and varied tapestry of significant events. Thanks to the concerted and highly professional efforts on the part of the Airport's entire workforce, we have managed to rise to every challenge that these past few years have presented us with, while ever reaching for new heights.
I cannot help but feel sincere joy when observing all the developments at the Airport these days: it is bustling with growth, becoming transformed before our very eyes into a technologically advanced, modern air transport hub that means so much more to all of us than just a work environment or a location where numerous flights depart from and terminate daily.
The all-new passenger Terminal A - a source of rightful pride for all of us - is nearing completion in record time, the airfield overhaul and renovation effort continues apace as does the construction of further infrastructural enhancements that will enable us to continue with uninterrupted passenger growth, as well as to handle almost any aircraft type currently in operation, and to offer our tenant carriers the best of terms and conditions on which to do business with the Airport. All of the above gives us cause to face the future with confidence.
But most importantly, we happen to be not just mere witnesses and observers of the Airport's ongoing transformation, but the very active agents of change, directly involved in the grand developments that transpire at Vnukovo International.
I am confident that we will stay true to both ourselves, our history, and to our prime concern that is the best interest of our passengers. A very happy Anniversary to all of you!
Best regards,
Vasily Ye. Alexandrov
Director General
JSC Vnukovo Airport
