Hello and welcome.
I tried different services.

Moldavian railways [ux]https://rail.shop/cfm[/ux] only shows the schedule but does not offer online purchase.
Ukrainian railways seems to offer online purchase (?), but currently I get a temporarily error message: [ux]https://rail.shop/uz[/ux]
RealRussia [ux]https://rail.shop/realrussia[/ux] offers a paper ticket, which has to be send to you and doubles/triples the ticket price.

Important: it seems that you find the city name [b]Chisinau[/b] written as [b]Kishineu[/b] in the booking tools.

Best and cheapest way is to just buy it at the station.

Departure on Friday, Saturday and Sunday
Ticket price: ~ 255-281 UAH = ~ 8 Euro
Journey time: 4 hours

Chisinau departure in the morning. Odessa arrival at noon.
Odessa departure late afternoon. Chisinau arriving in the evening.
Detailed schedules via the booking websites above.

Maybe someone else knows more for [u]https://rail.cc/en/train/chisinau-to-odessa[/u] ?

Pete :)
