Yes there's a place on Malchi Yisroel and (I think) corner of ben matisyahu that did it for a pretty fair price.

Cheapest would be Vodafone not sure if they sell it at the airport comes out to 0.5 UAH per minute to USA/can (100 UAH or around $4 for 200 minutes)

BTW IMHO Russia and Ukraine should be two separate threads......

Kievstar went up in price for international calls, Life;) used to have a service called "vilniey mir" which would give you calls to the US for about 5c per minute.
I lived in Ukraine for 1.5 years.

I remember how they used to scam me when buying the life Sim card in kbp, after one call I would have a zero balance
