Ireland-based Ryanair DAC (Ryanair) was the largest European low-cost airline, serving approximately 120 million customers in 34 countries in 2016-2017. The airline was considering entering new markets as its growth in existing markets had plateaued. The untapped Ukrainian market offered a huge growth opportunity for Ryanair as the country had recently signed a free-trade agreement with the European Union (EU) and was about to enter a visa-free regime that would increase travel between Ukraine and the EU. However, in July 2017, Boryspil International Airport (KBP) in Kyiv returned a co-signed service agreement that withheld several important terms and breached earlier verbal agreements it had made with Ryanair. KBP didn't want to provide a preferential tariff for Ryanair's flights to London because this would conflict with existing routes. It also insisted on solving disputes in Ukrainian courts rather than in UK courts, as Ryanair preferred. As the airline was confronted by KBP, Ryanair's chief executive officer, Michael O'Leary, needed to decide what to do in order to enter the Ukrainian market: What were the available entry options and entry timing? How should Ryanair proceed?
