After a long break, Eurowings has resumed flights from Düsseldorf to Kiev-Borispil. For the time being, three weekly rounds will be offered. Competitors such as Ryanair and Wizz Air reactivated their offer to the capital of Ukraine much earlier.
In Kiev, Eurowings uses Borispil Airport, which is located a long way from the city. Wizz Air is currently the only provider of flights between Germany and the inner-city airport Kiew-Schuljany. The last-mentioned airport has significantly higher fees than Borispil.
„Wir, die Airlines der Lufthansa Group, freuen uns, unsere Präsenz am internationalen Flughafen Boryspil zu verstärken und unsere neue Eurowings Strecke Kiew-Düsseldorf mit drei wöchentlichen Flügen aufzunehmen. Nach 30 Jahren erfolgreicher Operations von Lufthansa und Austrian Airlines Flügen nach Kiew, tritt heute Eurowings in den Markt ein und bietet unseren Reisenden aus Kiew noch mehr Möglichkeiten für weltweite Verbindungen. Mit den neuen Direktflügen bieten die Lufthansa Group Airlines rund 70 wöchentliche Frequenzen von der Ukraine nach Frankfurt, München, Wien, Zürich und nun auch Düsseldorf an“, so Karsten Zang, General Manager Sales Ukraine, Belarus, Turkmenistan and South Caucasus.
The flights expand the range of “family and home visits”, in which the Lufthansa subsidiary already offers numerous connections, for example to Greece, Croatia, Turkey or Beirut in Lebanon. Since July, Eurowings has also had flights to Tbilisi, Georgia, to Yekaterinburg and Krasnodar in Russia and to the Armenian capital Yerevan.
