Changes on individual routes
The flagship train No. 1/2 "Yednist" will run on the Kharkiv — Rakhiv route instead of Kharkiv — Vorokhta from June 29. This is the longest route of the flagship train in Ukraine — 1325 km. The train includes women's and children's carriages.
Route No. 55/56 on the Kyiv — Rakhiv direction will switch to daily service instead of alternate-day. The change will increase the number of seats on the route, which covers Vinnytsia, Khmelnytskyi, Ternopil, Ivano-Frankivsk, Yaremche, Tatariv, Vorokhta, Yasinya, Kvasy, and Rakhiv.
The "Sakura" train has new departure times: departure from the capital is now at 23:28 instead of 17:41. In the opposite direction, arrival in Khmelnytskyi is scheduled before midnight, and in Kyiv — at 06:09 instead of 09:58.
Route No. 113/114 Kharkiv — Uzhhorod switches to an "alternate day" mode instead of "by date" — this is a more convenient option for passengers from Kharkiv and Poltava traveling to Rivne, Lutsk, and cities in Zakarpattia. The parallel route No. 45/46 on the same direction changes its route through Podillia, which will allow residents of Vinnytsia, Khmelnytskyi, and Ternopil to reach Zakarpattia at a convenient time.
Routes No. 137/138 and No. 142/141 have been extended to Yasinya station: the first now runs as Kyiv — Yasinya instead of Kyiv — Ivano-Frankivsk, the second — as Chernihiv — Yasinya instead of Chernihiv — Ivano-Frankivsk.
