There are no night arrivals at Boryspil, because there are no arrivals.

Boryspil International Airport is not operating passenger flights. Ukrainian civil airspace has been closed since 24 February 2022. Ukraine's own NOTAM (A0095/25) closes the Kyiv flight information region to civil aviation, and the European Union Aviation Safety Agency's Conflict Zone Information Bulletin (CZIB-2022-01R13, revised 26 January 2026 and valid until 31 July 2026) tells operators not to fly in that airspace, "including landing and departures from airports located in the affected airspace".

What this page used to say

It described a cluster of arrivals from the Middle East and Asia between 11 PM and 4 AM, an overnight SkyBus running hourly, rideshare wait times and quoted fares for unofficial taxis. None of that describes the airport as it is. We have removed it rather than leave a plausible-looking night-arrival plan for an airport with no flights.

If you are planning travel to Ukraine

You will be arriving overland, not by air. Overnight legs are normal on the train and coach routes from Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania and Moldova, so late-night arrival planning is worth doing — but for a railway station or a coach terminal, not for this airport. Confirm times with the operator, and check your government's travel advice before you plan.

When flights resume

The airport itself is intact and maintained, its status is suspended rather than closed for good, and a number of international carriers have said they intend to return once it is safe. The Ukrainian government formed a working group in March 2026 to plan a phased reopening. But there is no reopening date, and reopening depends on the security situation rather than on a timetable. At that point the airport's own channels will be the place to check night schedules and onward transport.

When a private transfer from KBP is the right choice

  • Landing after the last train or bus: the driver is booked to your flight number and tracks the real arrival time, so a delay does not cancel the pickup.
  • Arrivals after midnight: no searching for a rank or a night surcharge; the price you booked is the price you pay.
  • Three or more people: a 4-seat car to Kyiv City Center is from €78, about €20 per person, usually level with or below separate public-transport tickets once you count the walk, the wait and the last mile with bags.
