What Travelers Say

AI-Generated Summary Based on web research

Recent traveler reviews for Khalaktyrka Airport (UHPH), also known as Yelizovo Airport, in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatskiy, RU, reflect a significantly improved experience following the opening of its new passenger terminal in March 2025 and an expanded security zone in July 2025. Overall sentiment is largely positive, with travelers appreciating the modern facilities and increased comfort compared to the old airport.

What Travelers Love
  • Modern and Spacious Terminal: The new terminal is five times larger than the old one, boasting a contemporary design often described as resembling volcanic stone. It features high ceilings, clean aesthetics, and improved passenger flow.
  • Enhanced Facilities and Amenities: The airport now offers 11 jet bridges, 28 check-in counters, and six passport control points. Travelers can find phone charging stations, a children's interactive zone, diverse souvenir shops, and a spacious departure hall.
  • Comfortable Lounges and Family Services: A business lounge is available, and a well-equipped Mother and Child room includes a kitchen, sleeping area, playroom, and even a washing machine and dryer.
  • Improved Security Experience: The expanded security zone introduced in July 2025 has increased screening equipment and area, aiming to enhance safety and comfort.
  • Scenic Location and Friendly Staff: Many travelers appreciate the picturesque views of volcanoes upon arrival and departure. There are also positive mentions of the staff being welcoming and helpful.
Common Complaints
  • Potential for Peak Season Queues: Despite the new terminal's design for faster service, travelers are advised to arrive early (1.5-2 hours for domestic, 2.5-3 hours for international flights) as queues can still occur during peak tourist seasons.
  • Staffing Concerns: A recent complaint from July 2025 indicated issues with staff attitudes and low salaries, potentially leading to turnover and affecting service quality.
  • Parking and Baggage Claims: While a free parking area was planned, some older reviews from the general airport experience mention parking as a point of dissatisfaction. Similarly, baggage handling, particularly in the international sector, has received some negative feedback.

Khalaktyrka Airport has undergone significant modernization, transforming it into a more comfortable and efficient gateway to Kamchatka. While the new facilities address many previous shortcomings, travelers should still plan for potential peak-time queues and be aware of some ongoing concerns regarding parking and baggage services.
