 Time zone proximity


Only 1 hour time difference

Lviv has only 1 hour time difference with most Western-European countries, including Belgium. This makes doing business with Skelia in Ukraine very practical with respect to cross-country coordination.

 

Lviv – 3 hours flight from Brussels

International airlines connect Lviv with the whole world, as well as with most cities in Ukraine. There are everyday flights to Warsaw, Vienna and Moscow, two times a week there is a flight to Madrid and once a week to Frankfurt. Both terminals are to be upgraded in a nearest future.  The

Lviv remains a hub with 9 railways converging on it, that provide local and international services. There are good connections with Kiev, Krakow (Poland), Kosice (Slovakia), Budapest (Hungary). There is a domestic and international airport located 6 km from Lviv city centre (south-west part of the city).

Due to its location merely on the border to the EU, Lviv has a huge development potential. It is already the chosen location for some 70 Danish companies, because of its international airport the only gateway into Western Ukraine and the present cost structure makes the entry attractive and with a promising perspective.
