How to fly from Poland to Spain for citizens of Ukraine?
Hello, I reserved a flight ticket from Poland to Spain for my friend. My friend is a citizen of Ukraine and is temporarily in Poland. Ticket reserved from USA. I would be grateful for any information that she needs to have with her. Thanks.

Passport.

Thank you. Will she need a hotel booked in her name? Because the hotel is in my name, but she'll have an address. I'm a little worried because she is a completely inexperienced traveler, and even when an unfamiliar language ????

Well, redo the reservation for two, just in case, so that it is clear that she also lives in this hotel. It is highly likely that they will not ask anything at the border, but here often such questions arose in cabins, and Ukrainian citizens say that sometimes they ask for a return ticket, and insurance, and a hotel, and even the amount of money. So it’s better to have everything in stock in case the border guards are interested. And the rest of the passport is enough.

the most important thing is what kind of passport she has, if she has a biometric one, then there will be no problems. If she has a valid visa, then too. But if she is in Poland illegally, then problems may arise. Hotel reservation is not required, but necessary. They may ask.
аватар ollennka
Well, I didn’t consider illegal options by default. And if she is in Poland legally, what difference does it make what kind of passport she has: an old one with a visa or a new one without a visa.

ollennka, if there was a biometric passport, then there would be no questions about how to fly from Poland to Spain. Because he got on a plane and flew away. If a person lives in Poland and this is the EU laws are the same in Poland, in Spain, for travel and flights, you need either a passport with a visa or biometrics. And the fact that she herself cannot buy a ticket from Poland just prompts me to such an idea. Since in Poland (as well as everywhere else) it is generally very simple to do this - buy a plane ticket. Why ask a friend about it? But. These are already nuances.
аватар ollennka
I still didn’t understand what was the difference between a biometric and an old passport for flying to Spain.
I personally parallel why a friend herself is not able to buy a ticket: maybe there is no money, maybe she is at odds with the computer and the Internet. Maybe one friend just wants to surprise another with a trip to the sea.

ollennka the difference is that visas are not needed for biometrics, it is visa-free for the EU. And in the usual one you need a visa to Spain, which still needs to be done. And knowing how many Ukrainians live in Poland illegally .. this is quite real.
аватар ollennka
Well, Christmas trees ... Why do you think that it is illegal only with an old passport? With biometrics, you can also live illegally if you violated the terms of stay.
In short, I continue to believe in the best and hope that my friend does not violate the laws))).

What is the status of your girlfriend temporarily in Poland? Is she a tourist, working legally (illegally)?
аватар lana_181
ollennka do not twist, I did not write that it is illegal only with the old one! It’s possible with biometrics illegally, then they won’t let her into Spain. You asked what the difference is. Answered, the difference is that you need to make a visa and you don’t need it for different passports. all OK?)

Hello everyone, is legally with a biometric passport. She didn't ask me for anything, I wanted to surprise her. Since I live in a completely different country, I don’t really know this cuisine. When I go to Europe, I don't need a visa or insurance, and no one has ever asked how much money I have with me or in the bank. Thank you.
аватар Igor_m
Let him buy a ticket for whatever he wants and go to Spain, no problem.
аватар lana_181
Anaidaverdi, well, since biometrics, then there will be no problems. But it’s better to have a hotel reservation just in case. And let the trip be pleasant!

It is necessary to clarify how long it is in Poland. According to biometrics, she can stay legally for 3 months, after that, even if they made "consecration" for up to 6 months, she is legally in Poland but no longer has the right to cross the borders of Poland. And when flying within Schengen, Ukrainian citizens are sometimes checked for visas and residence permit cards, and with expired biometrics they will not be allowed on the plane.
аватар ollennka
Why does every second suspect this unfortunate friend of illegal stay in Poland? It didn't even cross my mind to think of that.
аватар kolyan_cat
From Barnaul, of course, you know better what the rules and nuances are for Ukrainians with biometrics.
The question is not only and not so much in an illegal position. For this friend I painted, she will understand.
аватар ollennka
kolyan_cat, I remember about your unhealthy perception of Barnaul, thanks. It surprises me that already the third person by default is looking for some kind of catch in the situation described, as if one can live in Poland only by violating.
PS: the invitation to Barnaul is valid.
аватар kolyan_cat
The main thing is that Madame who is in Poland will understand what it is about. And to paint "for the sake of interest" to everyone else, it makes no sense.
аватар lana_181
ollennka because we are Ukrainians, we know how our people live there. 95 percent illegally)) That's all)
аватар Anaidaverdi
Thanks to everyone who responded to my question. My friend's flight went off without a hitch. They didn't ask for anything other than a passport.
