The Brașov-Ghimbav International Airport (IATA: GHV, ICAO: LRBV), situated near Brașov, Romania, close to the forthcoming A3 motorway, stands as a significant aviation hub. Notably, it marks Romania's inaugural airport construction in the past half-century, holding the status of the 17th commercial airport within the nation. The commencement of flights took place on the 15th of June, 2023. Since its operational debut, the Romanian air traffic control authority has restricted flight operations at the airport to the time window between 7:00 AM and 7:00 PM. Consequently, carriers utilizing the airport have adjusted their flight schedules, rerouting those falling outside these hours to alternate airports like Bucharest or Sibiu. The anticipation is that this circumstance might persist for several months, possibly extending to one or two years.History of Brașov International AirportThe concept of Brașov International Airport garnered widespread backing from the local populace, along with businesses in the vicinity, some of which outlined plans to transition to air freight services. Initial projections foretold the creation of 4,000 jobs and an anticipation of serving 1 million passengers within an 8-year span. Additionally, an estimated 6,000 indirect jobs were envisioned. The initial projected cost for this ambitious venture was approximately €87 million.Planning In 2006, the Romanian State Domain Agency facilitated the transfer of 110 hectares of land to Brașov County. Intelcan Canada was entrusted with the development and construction of the airport, in collaboration with Brașov, Harghita, Covasna counties, and Ghimbav city. The formal charter for the airport was signed on 14 November 2005. Intelcan initiated the construction on 15 April 2008. Originally aiming for completion within twenty-four to thirty months, complications involving legal matters and financial shortages disrupted the construction works, leading to Intelcan's departure from the project. The mantle was then assumed by the local authorities. Construction The trajectory of construction witnessed a significant milestone on 18 November 2012, when Brașov County authorities contracted Vectra Service, a local construction company, with a €12.7 million contract (VAT excluded) for the runway construction. In April 2013, construction recommenced, initially focusing on the 2,820 m (9,252 ft) runway. The runway was officially inaugurated on 3 October 2014. Subsequently, a contract was awarded to Romanian contractor Bog'Art Bucharest for the construction of the main terminal building, encompassing a total area of 11,780 m2 (126,800 sq ft), and works commenced on 17 March 2020. By March 2021, the passenger terminal construction was successfully concluded. The comprehensive site construction culminated in May 2023, albeit with the total costs escalating to approximately €140 million. Air traffic control operations are facilitated by a remote virtual tower stationed 400 km (250 mi) away at Arad International Airport. A notable development involved the national railway carrier CFR commissioning a feasibility study for an 8-km rail connection between the airport and Brașov railway station. The financing for this rail line is anticipated from the Next Generation EU recovery fund, with an estimated total cost of €300 million. Opening In its inaugural year of operations, the airport is set to accommodate an estimated 300,000 passengers. The airport's traffic is anticipated to burgeon, reaching one million passengers by 2026. Plans for a second terminal or an extension of the existing structure are envisioned for 2027–2033. On June 15, 2023, the airport commenced its operations with the first flight being a TAROM flight from Bucharest, operated by a Boeing 737-700 registered YR-BGG (TAROM's retrojet), landing at 08:10 in the morning. The first international flight, Dan Air flight 234 from Stuttgart, operated by an Airbus A320 registered YR-DSE, followed soon after.Practical Information related to the Brasov International AirportHow to get to Brașov-Ghimbav International Airport from Brasov city centerTo reach Brasov International Airport from Brasov city center, you have several transportation options:Taxi:Taxis are readily available in Brasov city center.

The house, where the famous poetess Aspazija (pen name for Elza Rozenberga-Plieksane, 1865-1943) lived and worked during the last ten years (1933-43) of her life, was built in 1903 and is one among the outstanding wood architectural and historical monuments. The poetess moved there after selling her house in Riga, Baznicas iela 33. She bought this house for 11,500 Lats and invested approximately 800 Ls in its repairs. Back then, in front of the house was a garden and courtyard. The address was Gonearova iela 13/15. With Aspazija lived her housekeeper Anna Rijniece and Aspazijas brother Zamuels's daughter Virena Rozenberga, a teacher in the Majori elementary school. Also, throughout her lifetime - at home and abroad in the exiles of Slobotskoy, Russia and Castagnola, Switzerland, as well as in Riga and especially here at Dubulti - the poetess had cats. Therefore, the sculptor Arta Dumpe, in creating a monument for Aspazija for the present garden, placed a curled-up cat in her lap. Up until 1987, when the house was turned over to the Jurmala history and art museum, it was maintained by the Jurmala executive committee and served as a summer house and was also rented out to various families. Upon the initiative of the Jurmala intelligentsia and with the financial help of Latvian patriots living abroad, such as Uldis Raiskums of the US, the house was opened to the public in 1996. In the home library, among other deposits, are more than 800 books donated by the journalist Osvalds Akmentins of Boston. More donations keep coming in. From 2012 October until September 2014, the whole Aspazija's property complex on Zigfrida Meierovica prospekts 18/20, was closed for complete restoration. As much as possible it was restored as it had been in its historical beginning. On October 3, 2014, the house was reopened to the public.
