UIA to Revise October Flight Schedule

Ukraine International Airlines (UIA) has had to revise its flight schedule from September 1 to October 24, 2020, due to the new Ukrainian government restrictions for foreign visitors to Ukraine. The decision to revise the schedule is due to the decision by the Cabinet of Ministers to temporarily ban entry of foreigners and stateless persons into Ukraine.

This new government initiative is due to the CoVid-19 pandemic but has severe negative impact on the travel and aviation industries in Ukraine. These new policies greatly reduce the number of foreign visitors able to fly on UIA and to visit Ukraine and the number of Ukrainians able to travel outside the country as well. These new policies force UIA to update its schedule in the coming weeks taking into account all of these factors.

The current flight schedule takes into accounts the limited number of potential passengers from September 1 to October 24, 2020. Here is the planned UIA flight schedule.
