Everything you need to know about your flight to Odesa
Odessa enjoys a warm temperate climate which is much more pleasant all year round than the continental climate of Kiev. Peak season is during the city’s summer months from June to September when visitors can expect sunny beach weather and warm sea waters. It’s cheaper to travel outside of these times, however, and the best time to get a deal but enjoy mild weather would be during the shoulder seasons of April – May or September – October. On the 2nd September Odessa enjoys its city birthday and prices may be more expensive during this weekend. On the 1st April the comedy festival can also see prices rise as can the Mayday celebrations in early May. However during all of these celebrations the city is a magical place to be.
An extensive public transport system is available in the form of trolleybuses or trams. Passengers can buy tickets from the conductor once aboard. If there is no conductor, exit through the front and pay the driver at end of journey. A minibus is another very common form of transport in the city. There are no stops however, so you will need to hail one. Take a map to show the driver where you need to alight and then pay as you exit the minibus.
