Electricity supplies have been restored in full at Moscow's Domodedovo International Airport, head of the Russian Federal Air Transport Agency said on Tuesday, RIA Novosti reports.
Two halls of Moscow's largest airport, Domodedovo, were left without electricity or Internet access due to abnormal weather over the weekend.
The airport, which currently remains closed to all inbound flights, expects to serve up to 350 departing flights later on Tuesday, including 100 flights delayed on Sunday and Monday.
Severe freezing rain, which covered the entire territory of Central Russia over the weekend, has suspended many of the country's daily activities, causing serious power outages and disrupting the
operations of public transportation and airports.
The delays were caused by power outages and ice at Domodedovo and by de-icing aircraft at Sheremetyevo. The association of Russian travel companies said flight delays affected more than 20,000 people.
