Interflug
German Democratic Republic, until 1991, when it ceased operations following German reunification.
Originally, the GDR had intended to call its airline Lufthansa, but this met opposition from West Germany.
Based at Schönefeld airport in the then East Berlin, Interflug used Soviet aircraft, such as the Ilyushin Il-62 and Tupolev Tu-134, although in the late 1980s it introduced the Airbus A310. Interflug operated mainly in Europe, particularly Eastern European countries in the Soviet bloc, although it also operated flights to Cuba, countries in Africa with pro-Soviet regimes, and in the late 1980s, to Southeast Asia.
