I can’t believe I never noticed this despite watching DS9 literally sitting inside Zvartnots, but there is an uncanny resemblance!

It totally is! And it’s been mentioned by many that the movie creators were very much influenced by the Zvartnots Airport.

So when I flew through it was only the new terminal so I never saw it. Are they planning to revitalize it or demolish it? From google maps sat view it looks like it's not in use.

Recently they decided against demolishing it, but idk what they’re planning to do with it
