In other words, you'd use the unidirectional form я лечу because each flight is a one-way trip, even though you make this one-way trip habitually. (And each train trip from Russia to Ukraine is, likewise, one-way.)

But "Я летаю в Россию часто" (multidirectional) means "I often fly to Russia and back".
Я летаю в Россию часто doesn't even remotely suggest that you will fly back from there, that just means -- I often fly to Russia, nothing more.

Я лечу в Россию would only be proper way of saying that you're flying to Russia now or is gonna fly to
