[Cz-L] Transport from Kiev to Cz. Help on buying train tickets

Hi All,

I'm coming to Czernowitz this June via Kiev(already bought non refundable tickets).The Czernowitz flights canceled and I thought to use the train. It's impossible to buy train tickets on the internet so I'm looking for other option.
Do u know someone (driver or tourist guide) in Kiev that can buy us the tickets for 5/6/2011, pick up from the airport and take us to the train station or pick us from the airport to train station and help us to buy the train tickets.

I heard it's 8 hr drive. Do u know any driver going this way?

If u have other Idea of how to get from Kiev to Czernowitz I'll be happy to hear.

Any suggestions are welcome.

10x,
Peretz

Czernowitz , the cultural metropole beyond the black mountains,
 is located in eastern Europe but transportation wise , as remote
 as Outer Mongolia.
   By train : From Lviv or Bucharest , in both cases involves wheel bogey
  exchange due to guage width difference. A 3 hours operation.
   By car : From Lviv -long bad road , from Suceava OK.( Pirate shuttles).
  By air : From Kiev daily flights to Cz . new planes. Best choice.
    Otherwise : combinatory flights involving multiple transfers ,
     passport controls , baggage claims , delays , foreign languages.
      For the adventurous.
