New schedule for the opening of ticket sales


From July 4, 2024, ticket sales for international trains will start according to a new schedule:

📍 Polish direction (Przemyśl, Dorohusk, Chełm, Warsaw): sales will open at 09:00 with a sales depth of up to 20 days before the departure date.

📍 Slovak and Austrian destinations (Vienna, Kosice): sales will start at 08:00 with a depth of 20 days.

📍 Moldovan direction (Chisinau): sales will start at 08:00 with a depth of 30 days.

The opening of sales for all domestic flights will remain at 08:00, which will help to avoid overloading the system during peak hours.

All sales will be launched simultaneously on the new website and in the mobile app.

Gradual transition to the new website


Ukrzaliznytsia also announced that it is gradually transferring ticket sales to the new website, so international tickets on the old website will no longer be available.

These changes are aimed at reducing peak loads on the systems, which will make it easier and faster to use the mobile app and website. Thus, Ukrzaliznytsia aims to improve the service for its customers by ensuring the stability of the system during ticket sales.

We remind you! Traveling to and from Ukraine is complicated due to the closed airspace, and therefore only land transportation is available. Read more about the trains that run between Ukraine and European countries that can help you get to your destination in this article.
