This article is devoted to identifying the geographical features of the availability of
passenger air transportation in the regions of the Belarusian-Russian borderlands. For this,
the index of the availability of passenger air transportation for the administrative regions of
Belarus and the city of Minsk for 2019 was calculated according to three proposed scenarios
and a grouping of regions was performed. The author came to the conclusion that in the first
and second scenarios 78% of the total population of the Belarusian-Russian border regions
are characterized by limited opportunities for the consumption of air transport services, while
in the third scenario this share is only 15%. Based on the results obtained, improving the air
transport network using the capabilities of regional airports and the potential development of
domestic regional air traffic is an important direction for the development of air transport in
the country.
