Ukrainian airline SkyUp has announced the launch of regular flights from Chisinau, the capital of Moldova. The flights will be operated on the most popular European routes among Ukrainians. This is reported on the company’s website, "Komersant Ukrainian" reports
The first flights will begin in April 2025.
“The list of routes includes such countries as Spain, Portugal, France, Greece, and Cyprus. The first flights will start in April 2025, and tickets for these destinations will be available from December 11, 2024,” the statement said.
