Polish bus carrier PolskiBus is interested in expanding its route network to Ukraine and constantly monitoring the situation on the market. The company noted an increase of passenger numbers from Ukraine. Piotr Pogonowski, Director of Marketing and Communications at PolskiBus, announced this to the CFTS portal.
"We believe the Ukrainian market is very attractive. I am convinced that it will develop dynamically," – Piotr Pogonowski said.
However, the entering of PolskiBus into Ukrainian market is impeded by some conditions. Piotr Pogonowski named three key factors: condition of local roads, transparency of law regulations and ease of crossing the border. Only when these conditions will be fulfilled, the carrier will open service in Ukraine. "All of those elements have an influence on the comfort of travelling for passengers which is our priority," – Piotr Pogonowski noted.
PolskiBus started its operations in June 2011. Its owner is a British businessman Brian Souter. The company provides bus transportation in Poland as well as in the neighboring countries – Germany, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Austria, the Baltic States. PolskiBus is considered as bus low-cost carrier, because the company offers tickets for PLN 1 + PLN 1 for seat reservation.
