Ukraine International Airlines (UIA) will launch flights from Kiev to the Emirate of Ras Al Khaimah in June 2021. Flights will be operated twice a week – on Mondays and Thursdays – on Boeing 737-800 (NG).
The aircraft is designed for 186 seats. The company plans to fly to Ras Al Khaimah before the winter season. Tickets will be sold both through tour operators (TUI, ALF, Kompas, TPG) and on the UIA website. The airline currently operates flights to Dubai from Kiev and Odessa.
Earlier, Wizz Air Abu Dhabi, the newest low-cost carrier of the United Arab Emirates, announced the launch of new flights to Kiev. Flights will be operated from the capital of the UAE three times a week, on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays.
Back in June 2020, the emirate of Ras Al Khaimah became the world’s first travel destination to receive Bureau Veritas and World Tourism and Travel Council (WTTC) safety certifications.
Obtaining certificates confirms the successful implementation of increased safety standards and hygiene protocols in the emirate, as well as the provision of additional training for tourism industry workers, and also allows you to assess the operational readiness of hotels and their employees for the safe stay of guests.
The emirate of Ras Al Khaimah is renowned for its rich history and varied landscape, from 64 km of pristine beaches to terracotta deserts and spectacular mountain landscapes. The emirate is home to the Jebel Jais Mountains and the highest peak in the UAE, 1,934 meters. The world’s longest zipline, Jais Flight, is located there.
Ras Al Khaimah is a modern emirate with a growing population, currently about 375,000, of which 31% are locals. It is considered a very safe and comfortable place to live and is consistently highly rated in global polls.
With year-round sunshine, simple business organization and a competitive and affordable cost of living, Ras Al Khaimah is a conscious choice for business, lifestyle and travel.
