October, 2009, Polet Airlines started with the commercial flights with the new IL-96-400T aircraft. On 27th of September aircraft took off from Domodevo airport to Yakutsk for payload and continued the route Shanghai – Novosibirsk - Munich.
Expectation of the project is high. Polet Airlines took a risk on completely new aircraft made in Russia (Voronezh factory) after long break for the Russian air industry.
The planned routes for regular cargo flights at the first stage are: China-Europe, Europe–Russia, Russia - Europe and Turkey. The second stage is to organize regular cargo flights to India-Russia- Europe and return. Further down the road there are planned flights between Russia and South and North America.
