Will I earn FB Status Miles et Status Segments
I am planning on flying one-way from KBP (Kiev) to CDG.

Flights on this route are operated by Air France and Ukraine International Airlines. Both airlines codeshare, so I could book with Air France a flight that is operated by Ukraine Int'l Airways, and vice versa...

My question is: If I book a Ukraine Int'l Airways flight, that is operated by Air France, will I get the same credit as for an Air France booking?

I always seem to be told that the airline operating the flight (so in this case Air France) decides... The reason I ask is that booking with Ukraine Int'l Airways is a lot cheaper than booking with AF...

What counts is not who operates the flight but under which arline code you are booked. In your case, you need to fly (= to purchase) AF flight numbers. So if you are booked under Ukraine International flight numbers, you won't earn any miles even if the flight is operated by AF.
