On July 1 Ukraine International Airlines in cooperation with JSC “Atass-Borispol” launched intermodal transportation between Vinnytsia and Boryspil International Airport. Through tickets are available on UIA website, at UIA ticket offices, and authorized travel agencies.
The UIA combined services connecting Vinnytsia and Kyiv are operated daily on Neoplan buses. Buses depart from Terminal D, Boryspil International Airport, and Terminal Square, Vinnytsia airport, respectively.
Passengers may check-in for combined services either on UIA website or via mobile app. Automatic check-in is also available. UIA baggage and hand baggage allowance applies to this type of traveling. Meanwhile, passengers are not required to check-in their luggage for the bus service. Animals, bulky sporting equipment, non-folding wheelchairs, and weapons are not permitted for transportation by bus.
“This is the first time UIA launches an intermodal service”, noted Evgeniya Satska, UIA Communications Director. “However, when it comes to transporting passengers to the base airport from localities within 300 km, many major European airlines take advantage of combi aircraft + bus services. By issuing a through ticket for this type of carriage we make sure our passengers are insured against various unforeseen situations, which may take place during their journey.” (UIA/Business World Magazine)
