I am really sorry but I don't get the problem, why can't your friend arrive Kiev Sunday night sleep all he needs and depart Monday
I apologize for the ambiguity.
My friend can do that. I am wondering what to do do for Sunday. With so many places to hit and having to arrive in Kiev at a decent hour, I am wondering  what should I cut out? Or perhaps I should change the itinerary completely?

So are you looking for places to stop on way back ?

I thought you meant a "stopover" when flying.

MS would work if there are normal accommodations for the night. I am unfamiliar with that area as I have only slept in Lviv, Mukacheve, and Medzhybizh.

If you leave Sunday morning you should be able to do ostroh, polnueh, shpitvke, anipoli, on way to airport.

If you want to travel really long vilednik is prob about 4 hours.

Then just find a hotel for Sunday night in jiev

Sounds perfect. In ostroh there's also r yeivi, r pinchos koritz'er is basically a car park on the side of the road. And just for your info to take into consideration while working out rest stops. there's a house for guest to rest right across the street of the cemetery in polnoah, and right outside cemetery in anipoli and this one has a mikva as well.

Depending on the budget of your client(?) you may consider taking advantage of KBP's VIP service: https://kbp.kiev.ua/en/infra/vip/
I tried it yesterday in ODS - from the seat of my flight from TLV to the curbside Taxi in 2 minutes & 21 seconds, it's a new record of mine.

Also, what are you using for local transportation?

The trip starts in BUD. From the it goes west and then north to Poland. In Poland the first stop is Rymanow and the last stop is Warsaw. From WAW to IEV by flight, as stated in the up thread. That said, there will be multiple drivers hired to save money.

If they am only flying out of KBP and have priority passes is there a point in the VIP Service? The hotel for the last night has a free shuttle from the hotel to the airport.

No
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.
