The Irish low-cost airline Ryanair launches flights from Lviv to Paphos (Cyprus) as part of the summer schedule since July.
This flight will be operated twice a week, the press service of the airline said on Thursday evening.
At the same time, due to regular changes in restrictions in connection with COVID-19, customers can postpone or change travel dates up to two times with zero commission until the end of October 2021, Sales and Marketing Manager for Central and Eastern Europe and the Balkans at Ryanair Olga Pawlonka is quoted as saying in the press release.
