it's fairly common to have to wait until check in is open for your flight to enter an SRA (security restricted area) such as the departure lounge. Otherwise there is no way of keeping tabs on people and ensuring no unauthorised personal are in that area at unusual times.

2022 update: this should be in any 'historical storage' now, because some of these places - or planes - might get demolished by the war. where sadly, one of them is unicorn Antonov AN-225 Mriya dream. See you in heaven, unicorn.

Here I am INSIDE the 'Exclusion Zone''. makes 0 sense lol. I remember that terrible accident involving Chernobyl. I was a mere 25 (lol) at the time. There were many parts of Belarus affected by the Nuclear disaster as well.

Did a very similar trip in 2017 combing Chernobyl with day trips to Lviv and Odessa to get on Antonovs. The aircraft are always the same on day trips as they stay there all day to operate the return.

Odessa reminds me of a famous 1925 silent movie scene The Odessa Steps from Battleship Potemkin by Sergei Eisenstein. I don't think you visited the steps though Noel.

Odessa looks be a particularly grim place. Is looking austere and lurking around suspiciously, a national pastime? You're a brave man Noel! :-)

What always baffles me is that even after the accident at Chernobyl, the three remaining reactors was operating up until the 2000s.

Love the Clouseau type music during your, er, excursion in Odessa and Kiev. Almost expected Peter Sellers to walk by.
