In old times( 3 months ago) it was $300 or 1500 UAH. VNV, why didn't you fly there @~$73 and get there in ~1 hour....I think it is around 270 miles, isn't it? How long did it take?
VNnation... I'm interested how long the taxi ride was? Must of been 7+ hours??? The flight is cheap and relatively quick... at least you don't have to sit for hours in a taxi and your save $100 USD.
Well, I had the flight from hell out of KBP at 5:30am, which could not be changed since I had tight connections through Vienna and then through London.
So I figured I could fly from Odessa to Kiev the night before, stay in a hotel, and wake up at 3:30 to get to the airport, or just take a taxi from Odessa straight to KBP. We left Odessa at 10:15 pm, and got to KBP at 4:15 am the next day.
It actually wasn't that bad. I had a goodbye beer with my friends until 10pm, then one girl came with me in the taxi to KBP. After I checked in at the airport, I had just enough time for another beer in the business-class lounge (surprisingly nice, BTW), and then passed out on the airplane. :-)
Well VNV....since you mentioned it....what happened to girl who joined you in taxi ride?
Well, 270 miles @ 6 hours, meant you averaged 45 mph. Good you had that girl join you!!! ;-)))
What would ahve happened if taxi had a flat tire or a mechanical problem????
You know, I think all of flights going through Vienna are tight connections. Last time I left from Odessa to Franfurt, my connection time was 40 minutes and I had to go through immigration too. Flight from Franfurt to Odessa had a 50 minute connection and I made it to gate as they were finishing loading..... shuttle to plane
Ah, the girl who was with me in the taxi is a real sweetheart. She came into the airport with me, and then, bless her heart, went back in the taxi to Odessa and arrived at about 11:00am. Very sweet girl, but unfortunately no potential beyond good friends.
Yes, my Vienna connection was about 45 minutes, then had another 45 minute connection in Frankfurt, then about one hour in London. And of course, by the time I made it home all my luggage was waylaid somewhere in Europe. Air travel is so much fun.
VNV, there is a UIA flight directly to Frankfurt from Kiev, reasonable cost $329 RT.
Hmmmm.....does that mean your taxi actually costed under $400...taking girl back to Odessa. THAT must have been some girl to do that for you VNV, I don't know many that would do that!!!
Frick must be nice. To see my Anya in Crimea it is $1000 to Kiev and $300 to Crimea. This is from America. See, you Europeans say us Americans have all the breaks! You can go there four times to my one!
Beemer, actually the taxi didn't charge to bring my girl back to Odessa, since he had to drive back there anyway. He was a nice guy, but the fact that my friend is incredibly sexy probably didn't hurt the negotiations either.
Hi, I don't think our women are well informed about Mexico. All they probably know is that Mexico borders the USA and there are people like Antonio Banderas there). It all depends on your lifestyle and what you can afford and of course on your appearance and inner world. Everything is possible.
