UIA is considering increasing the frequency of flights on the Kyiv-Colombo route to three flights per week in the long term. The price of a roundtrip economy-class ticket (including all fees and taxes) starts at UAH 15,513 (the price may vary depending on fluctuations in the UAH/USD exchange rate).
As reported, the airline started regular direct passenger flights between Kyiv and Dusseldorf on 30 October. It launched regular flights on the Kyiv-Ankara route on the same day.
