In airplane years, this one is not that old. A definite rarity in the skies, you're lucky to have experienced it.
30 years is old for commercial airliner. Most airline would dump them after like 4 D-checks (or around 20 y.o)
@@9inchpp this one is 14 yo though
As long as the aircraft is airworthy to flies and pass its safety compliance then it was safe to ride 😃😃😃😃
Yes.This plane 14 or 15y "old" only.Not old.
@@9inchpp This one probably does only long range flights, so its cycle count would be quite low and it should have a long life. Interestingly, it's long ago predecessor as the top long range Soviet/Russian airliner, the Tu-114, also had an excellent safety record.
Indeed, the IL-96 is the "Sir " of Soviet aviation design and engineering, beautiful aircraft, what a wonderful way to cross the Atlantic Felix.
This aircraft is not that old, there is a holiday airline in UK that are flying people to places like Ibiza on old 33 year old Boeing`s !
Older than most of their passengers !
"one of the world's last Ilyushin IL-96".
I think the author mistook it for IL-86. Actually IL-96 is relatively new - introduced in 1992, still produced, still in use and there hasn't been a single accident involving IL-96. Not a single casualty in almost 30 years of operations.
N then they crash......
Jet2?
I'm surprised they didn't build a 747 clone. The 747 is the "sir" of non-Soviet design!
what is that UK airline?
Hello from Russia guys!
Il 96 has enough durability, it is a very good plane. Only problem with russian aircraft nowadays - higher operational cost. But we working with it
Try to solve this destroying problem soon
Russia is working on a new modernized single engine to put on it. IL-96M.
@@mvd4436 No idea if they plan to give it the name IL-96M, the original Western engine powered IL-96 was the IL-96M, which fell thru and was never produced. A 2 engined Il-96 would be fairly promising on paper, however I doubt any timelines shown by UAC, given the many issues they had with the MC-21.
I wa t to go yu Rusia😍
@@mvd4436 russian planes were always a shit and they Will be a shit forever
I never realized how rare the Il 96 is but she is definitely going in my top favorite aircrafts of all time. A very nice testimony to her engineering.
The low engine noise when taking off is impressive. The russians can build a really nice.plane.

@@torargos8084 What does that have to do with anything?
Exactly!!!.That was my first thought too!!!.Despite I just fly on western build Airplanes,I got a very positive impression,about this Russian Airplane.Very quiet Engines,& a very peaceful flight!!.
All 30 of them. And just think, not ONE has crashed! Yet.
@@davidh9844 that's normal they are only 30 lmao
Flew one from Moscow to Tashkent (and back) back in 2011 when Aeroflot still used them.
Comfortable ride, way better than the old Il-86 and Il-62s they replaced.
@Mustafa Kemal Tv main reason it was better was that it was newer and had a more modern cabin interior rather than the rock hard Soviet school bus style seats, with Soviet "service" :)
I would love to fly on the IL-96. I flew on the IL-62 between London and Havana via Gander in Newfoundland which was bliss. Cuba has maintained and continues to maintain and fly the Soviet aircraft.
What a beautiful airplane! I am accustomed with aircraft not having onboard entertainment system (on our airline nowadays, you're glad to be even flying) but the onboard cameras really surprised me. It's a nice feature for passengers.
Another thing I am glad for is that clapping after landing didn't die out for Cuba. I believe that even though pilots may not hear it, it's a way to thank all the crew that took care of the passengers (mainly flight attendants).
6:05 Did you notice that remarkable shallow climb? There's a Russian joke (as old as Il-86), claiming that big Ilyushins are taking off only due to curvature of the Earth.
I flew once on an il-62: it felt (and sounded) like a rocket launch. I was liquified by the acceleration, sound and vibration. It climbed at a crazy angle... It really felt like they converted a fighter jet to passenger transport...
The same joke was also used for the DH121 Trident
No, that goes to the A340-200/-300
El_Ectric Absolutely! Those things climbed like they were afraid of heights.
KyrilPG You flown a plane designed by engineers and not Yankees who are hired because they are American. America makes planes like their cars, all fine for the first 2 years till something breaks catastrophically.
I remember flying internationally as a young kid in the late '70s and there being applause on landing but nothing as thunderous as that! Maybe everybody was so bored due to lack of IFE they were just relieved it's over.
@Blue collar Silver dollar nobody asked you
Blue collar Silver dollar Your comment showcases your ignorance.
Blue collar Silver dollar you misunderstood it, not everyone flying must be educated about aviation knowledge. Moreover, what about those crashes caused by pilot error, even though the chance of involving in a plane crash is extremely low. I think that's acceptable for them to cheer as the plane made a safe landing, and it doesn't matter of what country they are from
it shows how relieved they were (grateful) to have arrived safely in a russian plane
Blue collar Silver dollar, you must be a Trump supporter.
Was able to spot it twice in Shanghai this year carrying medical supplies. Absolutely a remarkable sight.
Thanks for a job well done. No endless talking by overinflated " Travel Specialists " with an ego that would not even fit in that gorgeous roomy cabin. How lucky to have this experience under your belt so to speak, and to share it with us.Greetings from YVR
Spot on!
👍👍👍🤣😅🤣

Safer than a Max8
@Mar Blox I'd rather they ground and scrap all Max 8 planes. Nothing but death and failure of that model.
@Mar Blox I'd rather not die.
@@osopotato1698 more like boeing's greed, incompetence and lazyness

Was a kid in Moscow in the 1970s, very fond of Russian planes. Thank you so much.
I flew with the IL 96-300 from Santiago de Cuba to Habana. That was an great experiance 👍
IL-96 is a safe and reliable russian aircraft. From Russia with love!
Lovely aircraft. Beautiful Russia! From Cape Town, South Africa
It isn't. It doesn't even come close to boeing or Airbus standards
It’s a shit bro, don’t lie

@@valendippo3329 erm.... no?
You have no idea the smile on just face right now . I’ve been waiting for this airline for ages and ages . And I wanted Madrid to Havana . Top top man I’ll watch it tomorrow. I’m so excited
I don't think I've ever heard clapping this loud on any flight
Blue collar Silver dollar you need some education.
@Blue collar Silver dollar I thought Cuba was a democracy
Yep, that round of applause was hilarious.
it shows how relieved they were (grateful) to have arrived safely in a russian plane
Rodrigo Fernanado da silva.... interestingly... Boeing 737 MAX passengers rejoiced at flying on an american plane?
This is a fantastic plane. Flew many times in Russia in the 00s.
Nothing wrong in complimenting the flight crew for getting you to your destination safely and comfortably. Many people are still apprehensive about flying,and a safe arrival prompts a show of gratitude. It is a gesture of thanks to the attendants who have done their best to make your flight pleasant.
Wow now that is fascinating! I haven't been able to find any good IL-96 long haul economy trip reports on RUclips at all, so this is a welcome treat!
"To drink, I got a cup of coke with ice...

At first I thought this was going to be a rap song ngl
Yo! Yoyo!
Amd it all ended with a delicious lunch ... A bit of an anticlimax for you there....🥙
One of the most quality comments.
Bars lol
It all ended with a bit of lunch, but I wish it was brunch
Cubana is one of very few airlines to use I for seats (most skip I and go to J). Also, the IL-96 looks a lot like a slightly wider A340-200
Shorter ,the tail looks taller though.a340 was 247',the IL96 is 188'.
But I think that the Russian IL-96 was released in 1988, while the A340 released in 1991.
Лучший самолет в мире, Боинг и А 👎👎...
Looks more like an A310 to me.
I have always admired Soviet aviation (I own many books on all types of Soviet commercial- and military- aircraft), and always held a profound admiration for both Cubana de Aviacion and Aeroflot! 😀THANKS FOR A GRETAT VIDEO!!!
A very good-looking aircraft, IMO.
Il 96-300 like A *THICC* Airbus A340-200
August H!! *THICCCC
Yeah but it was more advanced back in the day. Together with the Tu-204 series. These planes had technologies that most western counterparts didn't had. After the collapse of the USSR their aviation industry went to shit and their fates were sealed soon. You can say: "Wrong time, wrong place".
Russian engineers (design bureau) also performed more than half of all design work on the Airbus A330-200F. А-350, A-380 60% titanium parts for all Airbus. Flight control system, hydraulics and pneumatic system, heat exchangers, air conditioning systems and more
But shorter
@@Putins-mustache Where the hell do that come from ? Russian engineers barely have anything to do with any Airbus. Even if cold war is supposed to be over for 30 years, I can tell you the Concordsky Tu-144 rip-off memory is still very vivid in the EU and russian collaboration is down to the minimum if it even exists. The only russian bit I could ever imagine in an Airbus would be outsourced parts. There may have been a couple russian "transfuge" (escaped) engineers at Airbus but that's it. Most of the design bureau is French and German, and for a lesser part Spanish and English.
Loved the part of the video at Madrid airport where there is an easyJet plane and the Cubana one in the same clip. This Russian airplane looks very impressive. Fantastic trip report.
I used to fly on the IL-96-300 (long haul) and it’s predecessor the IL-86 (mid-haul). They are very similar in design.
I love them for their arrow-shaped nose and body, spacious room without hand luggage boxes in the middle and this large engine-like ventilator built in your front seat (this is way better then above your head) and, despite other Soviet planes, these ones are very quite inside.
Great video. One of my favourite soviet aircraft second to the tupolev TU-154M
Yup! The Tu-154 series airliners were a whole legend in their own right. Flew on them as a student to the former USSR back in the early 1980’s. Brilliant planes with engines that sounded straight out of Thunderbirds!
In 132 Airlines
Holy moly, that's a rare catch! Even Aeroflot doesn't fly these, since 2015 I think.
I mean, the Ilyushins from Cubana all used to be from Aeroflot (they took them ever since the latter leaned towards Boeing and Airbus planes)...
Because Aeroflot can buy airbus and Boeing. Cuba can’t because of the US embargo.

@@TheMasterhomaster does the embargo on cuba keep them from buying european products too?
Thank you for this nice video! I've flown this aircraft from Mexico City to La Habana and it was a superb flight, without turbulences or other problems. And Cuba and it's people is one of the best destinations you can find. Greetings from Rio de Janeiro!
This neither made me want to fly Cubana or fly IL96 but when you disembarked, I remembered that feeling of flying to a warm destination and then being met by warm, moist evening air mixed with jet fumes... I miss that. Even the mandatory wait in the ever overlid baggage claim areas.
I love the clapping at the end of a flight, it's just a very warm spontaneous thanks for getting us safely to our destination and a sign of appreciation. I'm used to it now as I live in Eastern Europe now in an ex communist country and fly a lot around the area and its a very common thing from people in that part of the world...flew on Sukhoi Superjet from Bucharest to Moscow few weeks ago and loved it...Russian planes have a charisma of their own.
Bobskibrit When I was a kid in the early 90s I used to fly on TU-154 in China, hated the plane, but now I kinds miss it, beautiful plane.
@@rangerzh7767 Nice ...I'm envious as I am yet to fly on a TU-154, but will try when I head back to Russia this year...I've flown on some cool planes both civil and military, but TU-154 still on my bucket list.
Bobskibrit these planes are disappearing fast
Great video, amazing aircraft, it's many many years ago since I saw Aeroflot IL-96's flying in and out of Heathrow!! That wing shot at 09:35 was my favourite part!!!
I love the clapping when the plane lands! I feel like this is such a big part of Latin American culture when flying because it signifies that “we’re home” when landing in the home country. I’ve been binging your channel and love the content!
Agree!
I remember flying in the 8O´s on Mexicana De Aviacion ... (I was like 6-7 yrs) and I remember asking my mother why people clapped at landing , so answer was like "It´s a big THANK YOU to the pilot for bringing us safely to home"
So true. Every time I go to Chile we al clap. It is such a long trip!
Third world people clap because they are inexperienced flyers and are overexcited
I’m glad we left the clapping in the past, it was so cringe
Agreee!!!!!
Such a cool video! The aircraft has an amazing retro feel to it!
I flew a standard Iberia A340-600, back in 2010, on my trip to Cuba.
Beautiful plane 👍
Great video! Enjoyed watching in on your trip. I love this unique and amazing airliner and hope it will continue to fly and have its own career along with its Western counterparts!
Flew with Ilyushin so many times in the 80's and then like 10 years ago with Cubana. Service was bad with Cubana, but Aeroflot was fine.
Отличное видео про замечательный полёт, и хороший самолёт:)... Воспоминания нахлынули сразу...
When I received notification, It shows Cubana. I know it going to be a good tripreport.
Legendary Ilyushin IL-96-300!!!

Love this plane, thanks for the excellent footage of IL-96
WOW I've never seen an amazing flight best video so far moment the plane touched down everybody clapped think wow what a nice plane to fly in thank you
Definitely an aircraft any enthusiast should try!
As far as I know, IL-96 and its predecessor IL-86 are double-deckers. Manufacturer supposed that the food should be prepared at the lower level and then with elevators put to the main cabin. That is why the back of the plane has only toilets. It is so unfortunate for me that I live in Russia and have never flown on this bird
SuperQwa23 some types of L1011 TriStar also had a below-deck galley with an elevator as well.
That is a very old concept that actually existed in the Tupolev-114.
But you live in Rússia. You lucky. I live in Brasil. I hate you. But whit love.
That looked fairly enjoyable! I loved all the various shots outside different windows! Not the most posh aircraft I have seen, and the meals weren't extra like others I've seen, but both did look well-presented and perfectly filling. Also, great video! For someone who will probably never see that aircraft nor the two locations featured, I enjoyed seeing them in such a condensed and thoughtful presentation. Thank you, Felix! 🌈💖
3 Years later and is still my favorite trip-report I have seen.
Absolutely loved it and almost all retro which I love . From the audio in the armrests to no entertainment in seats superb . It looked a perfectly nice flight . Could you get alcohol on board etc 👍 great video
It looks so strange without overhead bins in the center.
For faster military conversion.

Was meant to add more spacious feeling in the days before ridiculous amounts of carry-on
Dive Bar Casanova That’s a great point, I was going to say almost gives me military cargo feel when it’s missing
I guess they are stricter with the amount of carry on a passenger can bring
Interesting to see a quite recent flight on a Soviet/Russian aircraft. At one time I used to fly pretty regularly on a smaller Soviet aircraft the Tupolev 134 between Hanoi & Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) in Vietnam, where I lived for a few years in the early-mid 1990s, I believe most of these aircraft then in use in Vietnam had been acquired from Interflug, the East German airline, when East Germany was absorbed into West Germany to form today’s Germany. They were reputed to be better maintained than aircraft acquired from the USSR. They were comfortable enough to fly in with notably shallow lengthy and smooth takeoffs & landings, with the cabin becoming foggy with water vapour from the air vents, specially at takeoff, but their somewhat patchy safety record did give one pause.
This is my favorite Russian plane....the last large widebody they made, much like airbus a340. Less fuel efficient and a bit noisier than more contemporary planes, but otherwise the same. Il 96-300M
It’s not like that. Safer than Airbus or Boeing, that’s why this type of aircraft was chosen as a Presidential one..And no, not the last one. The last one is IL 96400,
Great report!! Thank you.
I want to be on-board the IL-96.

Back in the mid 1990s I flew long haul on a Cubana Il62M. Had a fuel stop in the Azores. Flight was around 50% full. Nice crew and the catering was good. Noisy sitting in the back row though! Enjoyed the video.😊
This is amazing!!! Superb!!! One of the most exotic flight reviews I have watched to date!! Well done mate keep up the good work! 👌🏼👏🏼
Thanks for sharing this, really interesting. I flew in a Il86 from then Soviet Union to Havana, they would make a refueling stop at Shannon.
Aeroflot had a hub at SNN, great airfares to Mexico City, Havana etc
Great video.

Finally got a review on IL96, thanks for the video 👌👍
I love IL96! Wish more airlines use this unique aircraft.
It definitely isn’t good for the environment as it use old engines, because of that it also costs a lot to operate this plane as it requires more fuel. I’ll prefer airlines to use newer, more efficient and more “green” planes, like the a321xlr or the Boeing 787.

Great catch man! I would love to fly on this or any Russian Plane. Russian planes, while not technologically advanced and gas guzzlers, were built like tanks. Many western aircraft cannot land on some of the runways that the TU 154, 134 and other can land on because they are built for our world. Sam Chui covers this well too. The designs are different and look damn cool. Love it.

It is quite unfortunate they stopped making these beautiful jets. RAC should do more in marketing their stuff. Honestly, Russian jets are pretty good and can be of good help if they work on the after-sales support and parts distribution network worldwide.
Boeing and Airbus have a very strong distributor network that sells their aircraft.
Pues esta es la aereolinea de mi pais, muy lejos de su mejor momento, pero ahi sigue, muy impresionante avion el IL-96, verlo volar es un espectaculo.

For my birthday (June 22) I got a model IL-86. A beautiful series of aircraft.

I was on one of the last IL-96 flights of Aeroflot from Moscow to Sochi few years ago. Inside is very spacious.
Why crew don't offer cigar's and rum after lunch?
Sergey Omelchenko fun fact: They actually USED TO hahaha. On routes like Habana-Mexico my parents told me passengers were allowed to smoke and drink during most of the flight.
During YUgoslavia smoking in plane was allow ..not just for passengers..pilots also ..it was banned for domestic flights only in 1987 but for international flights it was never banned until end off YUgoslavia
Andoni Chavez Back in the 80s just before the no smoke drive started on US airlines I used to walk through our 72s and 73s with the interior side panels pulled off for their D checks (heavy maint) the disgusting yellowish brown nicotine goo was everywhere, You take one look at that crap and know its going into your lungs is the day you quit (I did lol)
