The route crosses Ukraine from east to west and reaches the Hungarian border through Transcarpathia; every trip on this corridor includes a change, already built into the itinerary. Boarding in Sumy is at the bus station at 40A Stepana Bandery street or by the Zolotyi Vik shop on 1st Naberezhna Richky Strilky.
