Kyiv is not somewhere to plan a trip to right now. Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine has been ongoing since 24 February 2022, and the FCDO advises against all travel to Kyiv, not just the front-line regions. Martial law and a nightly curfew are in force nationwide, air-raid alerts and missile and drone strikes hit the city on a recurring basis, and Ukraine’s airspace has been closed to all commercial flights since the invasion began, so Boryspil and Zhuliany airports aren’t operating scheduled or charter flights.

Kyiv is not a place to plan a trip to right now. Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, under way since 24 February 2022, has not stopped, and the FCDO advises against all travel to Kyiv itself, the same tier that covers most of the country, not only the regions closer to the front line. Martial law and a nightly curfew apply nationwide, air-raid alerts and missile and drone strikes reach the city on a recurring basis, and Ukraine’s airspace has been closed to civilian traffic since the invasion began, so Boryspil and Zhuliany airports run no scheduled or charter service at all.

Kyiv is not somewhere to plan a trip to this year. Russia’s full-scale invasion, under way since 24 February 2022, has not ended, and the FCDO advises against all travel to Kyiv, the same tier that covers most of Ukraine, not just the regions nearer the front. Martial law and a nightly curfew apply nationwide. Air-raid alerts and missile and drone strikes reach the capital on a recurring basis. Ukraine’s airspace has been closed to civilian traffic since the invasion began, so Boryspil and Zhuliany airports run no scheduled or charter flights of any kind.

You cannot visit Kyiv right now, and no honest guide should tell you otherwise. Ukraine has been under Russian invasion since 24 February 2022, with no end in sight. The FCDO advises against all travel to Kyiv, Ukraine is under martial law with a nightly curfew, air-raid alerts and missile and drone strikes are a standing risk, and the country’s airspace has been closed to commercial flights since the invasion began.
