Windrose Airlines has applied to the US Department of Transportation to fly passengers and cargo between Ukraine and New York, reports the US-based aviation news site, One Mile at a Time. The airline, controlled by Ihor Kolomoisky, recently leased an Airbus A330-200, a wide body, two-aisle plane which can seat 400 passengers in three classes. “The airline will apparently use this A330 for charter services to New York and Hong Kong,” writes the news site, citing the US filing. “Windrose further anticipates directly operating ad hoc charters to and from the United States using its own metal.”
