Ukraine Int'l Airlines seeks ACMI placements for fleet

Ukraine International Airlines has proffered its aircraft to the ACMI and charter market to secure some cash flow as its operations remain grounded due to the ongoing Russian invasion on Ukraine. The privately-owned carrier said its aircraft are available for charter and wet-lease services and can also operate cargo-only flights, including humanitarian relief. It did not provide the full list of aircraft available and did not respond to the ch-aviation's request for comment. The airspace over Ukraine has been closed since February 24 due to ongoing air and missile strikes. "Using our aircraft, you support UIA operations during the war and help pay taxes to the state budget of Ukraine," the airline stressed, adding that it would not deal with airlines either from or even doing business in Russia or Belarus, the two countries responsible for the invasion.<br/>
