Problems and prospects Air transportation market is highly segmented. Ukrainian Airlines compete on a few routes. Each airline operates in its area (competing only on lines in Tbilisi and Dubai) As a result, this leads to higher ticket prices and poor service. Average age of planes in Ukraine is about 15 years.
