Fleet
SkyUp (IATA: PQ, ICAO: SQP) is Ukraine's low-cost carrier, established in 2016. The airline operates a focused network centered on two major hubs: Boryspil International Airport near Kyiv and Kharkiv International Airport in the country's east. From these strategic points, SkyUp connects passengers to destinations across Europe and the region, positioning itself as an accessible option for both leisure and business travel.
The airline's operations are built on a unified fleet of Boeing 737 aircraft. This single-type strategy ensures operational efficiency and consistent passenger experience. The 737 platform provides reliable service on routes ranging from short regional hops to longer European flights, with the flexibility to adjust capacity based on demand patterns across SkyUp's network.
Since its launch, SkyUp has grown to serve a meaningful share of Ukrainian air travel. The dual-hub model allows the airline to reach both the capital region and the economically important Kharkiv area, reducing connection times for many travelers. Passengers can expect modern aircraft, straightforward booking processes, and a service model built around essential travel needs rather than premium frills.
