On 20th of September 2013 The U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) today announced that Ukraine complies with international safety standards set by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO)

The decision is based on the results of a July FAA review of Ukraine’s civil aviation authority.

Ukraine is now upgraded to Category 1 from the Category 2 safety rating the country received from the FAA in June 2005. Ukraine’s civil aviation authority worked with the FAA on an action plan so that its safety oversight system fully complies with ICAO’s standards and practices.

A Category 1 rating means the country’s civil aviation authority complies with ICAO standards.

With the International Aviation Safety Assessment (IASA) Category 1 rating, Ukraine’s air carriers can add flights and service to the United States and carry the code of U.S. carriers.

Soon Ukrainian airlines could make direct flights to cities of United States of America (USA). The first flight route from Kiev, capital of Ukraine to New York, USA will be organized by Ukraine International Airlines (UIA) near time.

Confirmation of Category 1 Safty Rating for Ukraine is done
