What does it cost to get from Boryspil Airport to Kyiv?

The honest answer is that the question does not currently apply.

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".

Why we removed the prices

Because no passenger flights land here, we are not publishing airport transfer prices for Boryspil. Any figure for a SkyBus ticket, a taxi or a private transfer from this airport would be a number for a journey nobody is currently taking, and fares in Ukraine have moved a great deal since 2022. When flights resume, check fares with the airport and the operators directly rather than trusting a page written in advance.

This page used to quote SkyBus tickets, app fares, private transfer ranges and a hryvnia-to-euro conversion. All of it described an airport transfer that has not been possible since February 2022. Leaving those numbers up would have been worse than useless: they looked specific, so they looked checked.

Reaching Kyiv now

Travellers reach Ukraine overland, typically flying into Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania or Moldova and continuing by train or long-distance bus. Ukrainian Railways runs long-distance services to Kyiv from the western border. Journey times are long and border crossings add time.

Fares and schedules change with the security situation, so book with the rail or coach operator directly. Check your government's travel advice before planning any trip.

When the airport reopens

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. When that changes, fares should be checked against the airport and the operators themselves — not against a page like this one written in advance.
