The share of low-cost carriers using Boryspil airport has reached 40%.

This includes the traffic of hybrid airlines and low-cost carriers which now account for 40% of the total passenger traffic at Boryspil Airport on international scheduled flights in 2021. In 2017, their share was 3%, and in pre-crisis 2019, 17%. According to the General Director of Boryspil Airport, Alexey Dubrevsky, the change is due to structural changes in the entire market, as passengers have become more likely to fly low-cost carriers that operate direct flights, rather than the classic airlines that provide transfers at the base airport, reported avianews.
