As is our wont, we present yet another post focused on history and travel. But this one takes several different slants, and ones that we hope you’ll investigate. Specifically, here we feature live history that you can not only read about (and watch the video,) but this is history where you can actually buy your ticket and step forward into the past. And, if you’re an aviation buff like we are, this will be even more of a thrill. Today, you’ll be taking a one-hour flight near Vnukovo Airport. What’s so special about that? Firstly, you’ll be a pampered passenger on a Kosmos Airlines Tu-134, flying with astronauts and VIPs in multiple luxurious cabins, including sofas. Passengers are offered champagne, so this will likely be the most unique and unforgettable flight that you’ve experienced. Unless things change, your flight will likely be virtual (via YouTube) but you will certainly get the Full Monty when it comes to “being there.”
