Ryanair announces entry into Ukraine with 15 flights

KIEV, March 23 (Reuters) - Irish low-cost airline Ryanair said on Friday it would launch its first routes to Ukraine, rekindling a deal that it walked away from last July over alleged attempts to protect the market for Ukrainian competitors.

Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko and Ryanair Chief Executive Michael O'Leary announced the agreement at a briefing at Kiev's Boryspil airport, which will receive 10 Ryanair routes, while the Western city of Lviv will receive five.
