The largest regular aircraft using the airport was a Transaero Airlines-operated Boeing 747-400 . These flights transiting from Moscow ended when Transaero ceased operations in October 2015 . British Airways operated the only regular scheduled Boeing 777-200ER service ( from Gatwick Airport ) . However , this service ( and others ) has ceased due to concerns over the downing of Metrojet Flight 9268 on 31 October 2015
