history

The airport, a good 15 km west of the city center, was put into operation on July 12, 1957 with the first passenger flight of a Tupolev Tu-104 to Moscow as an extension of an already existing military airfield. Until 1992, the airport belonged to the United Aviation Company Tolmachyovo (Tolmatschjowski objedinjonny awiaotrjad) and the Russian Ministry of Civil Aviation. In 1995 the airport was transferred to a joint stock company, in which the Russian state held 51% until 2011. Novaport bought this stake in a privatization in 2011 for 2.8 billion rubles. Together with the minority stake of 38%, which the investment company had already acquired in 2004, they held well over 80% through various structures. At the end of 2015, the Russian airport operating company Novaport increased its stake in the airport to 100%.

Tolmatschjowo Airport has two 3,600 m long runways. The second, running at right angles to the original, went into operation on September 25, 2010. The international terminal was opened in 1997, an extension of the old domestic passenger terminal in 2006. 61 stands are available for aircraft.

The airport was the first in Russia to receive the ISO-9002-96 certificate in 2002 . In 2014, the airport recorded over 3.96 million passengers. Of these, 1.53 million passengers were on international flights and 2.43 million passengers on national connections.
