The State Railway Administration of Ukraine (Ukrzaliznytsia) is planning to start selling up to 60% of its tickets online by 2014, Ukrainian Vice Premier and Infrastructure Minister Borys Kolesnikov has said.
"We want to drive online ticket sales up to 60% over three years," he noted during a press conference in Kyiv on Monday.
Kolesnikov stressed that such a practice would considerably reduce time expenditure and inconvenience connected with buying tickets, as the booked ticket could be collected at a respective terminal at the railway station within a couple of minutes.
