Ukrainians are increasingly using bus services to move around European countries. After the start of the full-scale war, the German company FlixBus launched international flights directly from the cities of Ukraine. Learn more about the schedule and prices of the routes
Against the background of massive problems with electricity, Ukrainian citizens began to travel more often to Poland and other European countries. Rail transportation is not suitable for everyone, so some try to find an alternative, for example, bus routes.
After the start of the full-scale war in Ukraine, the German company FlixBus decided to launch several international routes from Ukrainian cities, in particular to Poland. They have to replace routes that, for obvious reasons, are still impossible from Ukraine.
It is worth noting that a few years ago FlixBus decided to merge with the Polish carrier PolskiBus. After that, the Polish company was legally liquidated. Now, tickets for international and domestic bus routes departing from many Polish cities can be purchased on the website of the German company.
