Civil Aviation Worker's Day to be celebrated annually on 24 June

The Civil Aviation Worker's Day will be celebrated annually on 24 June. The government has approved the change of the official date for this professional holiday.

According to historical sources and the National Archives Agency, June 24 reflects the real moment of the launch of civil aviation in the current territory of the Republic of Moldova. In 1926, on this day, the first commercial and postal flight took place between Bucharest, Galați, Iași, and Chișinău.

Until now, the professional day was celebrated on September 19, a date that referred to the beginning of civil aviation during the Soviet period.
