 How to Save Money on Travel to Odessa Ukraine

   By dompavlov

Would you like to travel to Odessa in Ukraine and save few hundred Dollars or Euros? This article provides a few suggestions for savings on flights, airport transfers, accommodations, and meals, including a couple of restaurant recommendations.

Save on flights.

The cheapest airway company that offers flights to Ukraine is Ukraine International Airlines. It is Ukraine's leading international airline, a commercial network that covers 70 countries. It has the cheapest rates. Book flight tickets in the country of departure. Polish Airlines (LOT) is also not expensive.

Save on transfers from Odessa airport to Odessa accommodations.

If you have friends in Odessa, ask them to pick you up from the airport. You may also hire a taxi at the airport, but taxi drivers rate foreigners 60 USD or 40 EUR for transfer to Odessa city center. Normally, it costs 25 USD or 16 EUR. So if you are going to catch a taxi, offer the taxi driver 20 - 30 USD.

Save on accommodations.

Renting an apartment has become a great alternative to a hotel room due to its convenience, space, privacy, and price. For one night, several days or more, benefit from apartments with kitchen, bathroom, satellite and television.

Individual apartments may have private telephone numbers. Make yourself at home in your apartment; cook for yourself, or from local take-away caterers. These are the reasons why apartments are preferred more than hotels. Besides, hotels are at least twice as expensive.

Your apartment should be central located. It should be in the safe part of Odessa city center. In this case, Deribasovskaya Street is the best solution. The problem is that there is limited availability of apartments on Deribasovskaya Street, and your attempts to rent an apartment here may prove to be futile.

Here is a list of other Odessa centrally located safe areas where you can also try to look for apartments:

• Dvoryanskaya Street
• Koblevskaya Street
• Lva Tolstogo Street
• Nezinskaya Street
• Preobrazenskaya Street
• Sobornaya Square
• Pastera Street
• Nekrasova Street
• Mayakovskogo Street
• Gogolya Street
• Mendeleyeva Street
• Vorontsovskiy Lane
• Primorskiy Boulevard
• Ekateriniskaya Square
• Chaikovskogo Lane
• Gavannaya Street
• Lanzeronovskaya Street
• Krasny Lane

• Grecheskaya Street
• Pushkinskaya Street
• Ekaterininskaya Street
• Reshilyevskaya Street
• Bunina Street
• Aleksandrovskiy Avenue
• Zhukovskogo Street
• Sadovaya Street

Save on meals.

You can cook in the apartment yourself or visit McDonalds or Zarju-Parju (the Ukrainian equivalent of McDonalds).

Here are also centrally located restaurants that have comparatively cheap rates, but good service and delicious meals:

Restaurant Kumanets. 7, Gavannaya St. Ukrainian: themed dining taken to the extreme. Good lunch will cost no more than 30 USD.

Restaurant Aliye Parusa. Corner of Deribasovskaya and Yekaterininskaya. Harking back to Odessa's early days of tall ships and trade, with epicurean food and lots to drink. Good lunch will cost no more than 30 USD.
