By plane
Dear travelers, if during your being in Ukraine you will decide to fly to Chisinau (Kishinev), Moldova, you need to see this picture. It is a map of flights from Chisinau (Kishinev), Moldova (it has been taken from airmoldova.md). There are no any flights from Moldova to Ukraine. You can fly to Moldova from Europe, from Turkey, from Russia, but not from Ukraine. One guy from on of travel forums offered to fly from Kiev (airport Borispol) to Timisoara (Romania) and fly from to Chisinau (Moldova). But it is possible to reach Moldova by other ways:
By bus
Bus timetable (bus.com.ua) has a lot of busses from any point of Ukraine to Moldova. All of them pass via Odessa bus station. The distance from Odessa to Chisinau (Kishinev) is about 200 km. A travel by a regular bus is about 6 (!) hours. Why? Because you will go through 2 borders: Ukraine-Transnistria (Pridnestrovie) and Transnistria (Pridnestrovie)-Moldova. Your travel costs will include: bus ticket from Odessa to Chisinau about 10-12$ and customs charges - about 20$.
By train
Train timetable (uz.gov.ua) has a lot of trains to Chisinau (Kishinev), but they don't pass via Odessa. They pass via Mogilyov-Podolskiy (western Ukraine).
Maybe taxi?
If you dont want to depend on bus/train timetable and you value your time and nerves we can offer you taxi from Odessa to Chisinau (Kishinev).Our comfortable car with professional driver will take you Chisinau (Kishinev) in about 4 hours (including customs).
