Ulyanovsk East Airport

Ulyanovsk East Airport (UWLW) is a medium airport in Cherdakly, Russia. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code UWLW or IATA code ULY. It sits in Europe.

Ulyanovsk East Airport is a regional commercial airport that doubles as a busy private-aviation base. Operators benefit from full instrument approaches and an FBO infrastructure scaled for regular jet traffic, often without the congestion of the nearest major hub.

Ulyanovsk East Airport sits near sea level at 252 ft.

Local operations run on Europe/Ulyanovsk. Scheduled airline service is light enough that it rarely interferes with charter movements, though planners should still expect to coordinate with the handling agent for international turnarounds.
