–DD commenter “Aryeh” notes that he stopped over for longer in Kiev and for $100 he had a private driver (contact info here) take him to the gravesites of the Baal Shem Tov Zt’l, Rebbe Nachman Zt’l, and R’ Levi Yitzchok Zt’l. DD commenter Yakov had the same positive experience as well.

To help find dates with longer connections you can use Google’s ITA Matrix. See this post for a demonstration and then use advanced routing code:
PS+ / minconnect 240
Where PS+ limits the search to Ukraine Air flights only and the number 240 refers to the minimum amount of minutes that you wish to remain in Kiev. You can make that number any amount that you want.

For the dates below I used routing code
PS+ / maxconnect 240
to find flights that have connection with a maximum of 240 minutes.

After finding valid dates just plug them into Priceline to make the book tickets.
