Ukraine International Airlines (PS, Kyiv Boryspil) will launch direct flights from Kyiv Boryspil to New York JFK with effect from April 25, 2014. The flights will initially operate 3x weekly onboard a B767-300 growing to 5x weekly later in the year. Based on the results of a July FAA review of Ukraine’s civil aviation authority, the US Federal Aviation Administration upgraded Ukraine's Aviation Safety Rating from Category 2 to Category 1 thereby allowing new Ukrainian carriers to operate direct flights to the US. Bankrupt Aerosvit Airlines (Kyiv Boryspil) had previously operated to the US from Kiev.
