How to get to Ukrainian airports for a flight to Thailand?
Tourists looking for an unforgettable holiday in the exotic land of Thailand can take international flights from several major cities in the country. The main part of the air hubs are built at a short distance from the city and therefore have excellent transport links:
- Kiev - the largest airport in the capital, Boryspil, is located tens of kilometers from the center, however, the following public transport routes follow it - No. 474, 220, 535, 178, 415, 316 (317, 318). The average travel time is from 15 to 30 minutes, excluding traffic jams;
- Kherson International Airport is significantly removed from the city center, and therefore you can only get here by bus No. 101, or by intercity buses passing along the E58 highway, or by hitchhiking;
- the Kharkov air terminal is as much as 12 kilometers away from the city center, but buses No. 255, 115, 5, 152 follow here. Transport runs frequently during the day, however, it is necessary to calculate the time taking into account the dense traffic of the metropolis;
- Odessa travelers have the opportunity to conveniently go to the air terminal almost around the clock, because there is the most convenient transport interchange here than anywhere else in the country. Minibus taxis depart towards the airport with numbers 232, 14, 129, 117, 156;
- Dnepr - you can get to the object by only two buses with numbers 60 and 109. Transport is provided with an interval of only 10 - 20 minutes, in the evening the interval increases;
- Lviv airport is in close proximity to the city and therefore it is best to get here by inexpensive and fast bus routes No. 48, 9, 10;
- Zaporozhye - city transport is capable of delivering tourists to the site on routes No. 3, 4, 35, 37.
If the flight is early in the morning or late at night, the tourist should give preference to a taxi service.
