One of these options is the nearest airports in neighboring countries, such as Poland or Moldova. If you need to get to the nearest airport, here are some ways that can help you:

1. Railways. Ukraine has railroad connections with many neighboring countries, such as Poland, Romania, Slovakia, and Hungary. You can use the train to get to the nearest airport in one of these countries. For example, you can travel from Kyiv to Warsaw or Budapest by train.

Tips for traveling to an airport outside of Ukraine

Before traveling abroad from Ukraine, I recommend that you take the following steps and prepare the necessary documents:

1. Check the validity of your passport. Before you leave, make sure your passport is valid and has the required expiration date. Many countries require that your passport has at least another 6 months of validity at the time of entry. Also, make sure you have the required number of blank sides for stamps and visas.
2. Get a visa, if necessary. Some countries require a visa for Ukrainian citizens to enter. Before traveling, make sure you need a visa for the country you are going to travel to. If so, contact the embassy or consulate of that country to obtain a visa. Find out in advance about all the requirements and necessary documents for obtaining a visa.
3. Prepare the necessary documents. Depending on the country you are traveling to, there may be different requirements. The basic documents you should usually have with you include a copy of your passport, transportation tickets (rail, bus, etc.), hotel reservation or address, health insurance (recommended), financial documents (cash, credit cards, etc.), and other documents specified in the visa requirements or regulations of the destination country.
4. Find out about medical requirements. Before you leave, find out about the medical requirements and recommendations for the country you are traveling to. Check if you need any vaccinations or medical documents, such as an international vaccination certificate. Consider taking out health insurance to cover the cost of unexpected medical expenses during your trip.
5. Make sure you have enough money. Some countries may require proof of sufficient financial resources to stay in them. Make sure you have enough cash or credit cards that can prove your financial solvency.

These are general steps and tips. It is also recommended that you contact the embassy or consulate of the country you are traveling to for up-to-date and detailed information on requirements and procedures.
