TRAVEL: Ryanair is launching flights to a popular stag-do destination
Tickets for flights to Kiev and Lviv, in Ukraine, went on sale yesterday with prices as little as £19.99.
The low-budget airline planned to start flying to the country last year, but had walked away from the deal over an alleged attempt to protect the market for Ukrainian competitors.
So from October, Brits will be able to fly to Ukraine from London Stansted.
Ryanair’s new flights, which also include routes to the country from places like Barcelona and Stockholm, will deliver up to 800,000 travellers to Kiev and Lviv every year.
