Who flew to Cyprus with UIA?
Hello, tell me, who recently flew to Cyprus with a / c UIA from Kyiv - how are they with punctuality, flights are not delayed? I read negative reviews about UIA, very frequent flight delays. I wouldn't want to spend 12 hours at the airport.

And I often have a brehunets - the autoradio works in the car. There is a transmission there - the situation at the airports of Ukraine. Often UIA is mentioned by flight delays.

And besides the delays, the service is terrible. I generally keep quiet about food on board

Speak UIA food is bad and service. I wonder what you're comparing to? I have flown with many airlines. So, UIA has an average level of service and absolutely normal food.

We also already flew with UIA three years ago from Kharkov. The flight was delayed, but not for long, and most likely due to weather conditions. And the food is edible, not a restaurant, of course, but a bite to eat in a two-hour flight will do. And now I'm wondering how the situation is now)) Thanks for the answers.

To evaluate the quality of UIA food, I advise you to fly with Cypriot airlines from Zhulyan, UIA food will certainly seem like a restaurant.

flew several times with Mau, as luck would have it, sometimes everything is accurate, sometimes 2 hours at the airport are guaranteed, but 12 is too much. There was no such thing.

Natasha is stupid with Etihad, Turks and Emirates.
but I even put our "quiet" aero suite a couple of steps higher (and poured on board, by the way) the last time I flew from them to Azerbaijan, and before that to Beijing, Moscow time, etc.
but about UIA. There wasn't much choice this year. killed a regular flight from Germany, where it was wildly cold on board, and the flight attendants brushed aside complaints from passengers, you will look younger in 3 hours. food - a cold rubber roll with a piece of cheese. a glass of juice, the second is not given because the rest of the passengers will not have enough, current water
then they had to fly to Tbilisi in May, the food is the same. BUT since it flew on May - these bastards added seats to the rows, emergency exits were forced, confusion on the plane starting from the 5th row - no one could find a place because there were more rows than numbers. above me was not a button to call the stewardess, not an air regulator, even the row number was missing. sat between. there was no legroom at all, although I flew from Germany with the same Boeing and there was plenty of space. This is at least contrary to the rules of air transportation.

and also about prices: UIA has a flight Kyiv-Lebanon. so it costs the same as the Turks Kyiv-Istanbul-Lebanon. the only difference is that in Istanbul you can choose a connection from 1.5 hours to 3 days and take a walk around the city, and in this case, Turkish Airlines provides a hotel with full board and an airport-hotel-airport transfer for free. and control it all. or if the connection is from 6 hours - a free tour of Istanbul and lunch. and on board freshly squeezed orange juice, alcohol, red fish, chocolate puddings, salads, etc.
so if there is an opportunity, you need to look for an alternative to our miracle airlines ...

Try to fly Aegean from Zhulyan, they seem to be already flying in that direction. Both the prices and the food will pleasantly surprise you. Although I agree with the previous author that Mau has very good dinners and they even offer alcohol if there is no turbulence. Would you fly with the former Aerosvit or Trans avia, at the same prices as UIA, but with one small sandwich and mineral water without gas .. then UIA would seem like a fairy tale to you! I'm already silent about low-cost ...

For those who are interested, we flew to Cyprus with UIA in mid-August, the flights were not delayed, everything was on schedule. Takeoff and landing are excellent, the plane is new, flight attendants are friendly, in general, everything is fine, but I didn’t really like lunch, it’s really poor. Three years ago the food was better.

I am quite satisfied with low-cost airlines. I can eat before the flight. And I won’t have time to get hungry in 2-3 hours, so I’m silent about the prices for our UIAs.
After all, I want to fly, and not enjoy gourmet meals on board. It was correctly written here - "if possible, you need to look for an alternative to our miracle airlines .."

Bartlovska - I wrote about Turkish Airlines, not UIA. worse than the Mau, I haven't flown yet. especially if you take the price-quality ratio. and there is no alcohol on board, and several times during the flight the "cute" voice of the stewardess in the dynamics reminds of this. we even had a conflict with them on the Kyiv-Abu Dhabi route about this.
but I was much more satisfied with Aerosvit than UIA.

Just terrible customer service! If I had a choice, I would not have flown through this company in my life. 09/13/2014 at 06:20 there was supposed to be a flight Tel Aviv - Kyiv (Borispol), three hours before the flight, i.e. at three in the morning, we arrived at the airport, without explanation, we were told that this flight was canceled, and the next one would be at 14:15. The UIA company did not even deign to WARN about the cancellation of the flight!!!! Freezing until the morning (at the Tel Aviv airport, being for a long time, because we did not expect to be there for more than 3 hours), we went to the information center, asking for at least some information, we heard all our questions only one answer, call your company, we asked for a phone, according to the code of Ukraine and the Rules for air transportation, approved by the Order of the Ministry of Transport and Communications of Ukraine No. 216 dated 04/23/10, we have the right to 2 calls, we were refused!!!! We only had mobile phones, so we could not call the UIA landline phone. We turned to the representative of the UIA company, located at the airport, she said that she had no time to deal with us. We "wandered" around the airport, thanks to the irresponsibility and carelessness of UIA, for 11 hours. For all requests for drinks, etc. due to passengers of canceled flights, we were denied. I would like to ask the management of the company why such a negligent attitude towards passengers, to put it mildly? We didn't even get a call or an apology! This is "service"! I would like to remind you about the rights of passengers: Passenger's rights in case of flight cancellation.

400 euros - for flights with a range of 1500 to 3500 kilometers;
600 euros - for flights with a range of more than 3,500 kilometers.
