As soon as I want to talk more about Crimea on my Ukraine pages, I can't omit the information about how to get to Crimea.

By Ukraine International Airlines I flew these airlines only once: from Vienna to Odessa and was not too happy about the service. I would say "Austrian Airlines" was much more friendly...

The Metro

by boltonian

3 lines cover the city. But do not expect to understand the signs. Plan your route very carefully before you go.
