I recently had a look at the EU blacklist for airplanes and Air Koryo is on it with the exception of the Tu-204 so Air Koryo‘s Tu-204 would theoretically also be allowed to operate in Europe (which makes sense Ig, Air Koryo doesn‘t have a terrible safety record and the Tu-204 isn‘t horribly outdated either).

Still remember flying on an Air Koryo IL62 to Zurich back when they flew there. Here’s some context. It was December 21, I was in Beijing on business and needed to get home for Christmas. My flight on American was canceled. The next available flight direct to SFO (where me and my entire family were gonna meet at my sisters house) was on Christmas Day. I was so bummed until I looked over at the Air Koryo check-in counter. Saw a flight to Pyongyang on a TU154, I asked the check in agent about a flight to Zurich via Pyongyang. To my luck there was a flight to Zurich that would leave me with a 2 hour stop in Pyongyang, if PERFECT! Instantly booked my flight on Swiss from ZUR to SFO. Got to fly on a TU154 and IL62! Even treated myself to seat 1A on both AK flights and even the Swiss flight thanks to my secret stash of Star Alliance points.

Incredible! Absolutely wonderful trip report! I have been waiting for this video for so long! Great job! Love your channel!

Love how the airline of the most hard core communist nation on the planet has a business class 😂😂

USSR Aeroflot planes had business class in many planes actually. Even on regional routes. But it wasnt called business, ofcourse. Diplomatic or some sort. And yeah, cheers from Moscow.

[@NoFL88]

@Zeksteve i'm not so old :-) Got USSR for only my first three years. But my parents told me that air tickets were pretty affordable for all people actually. I guess maybe because of huge government support and origin of the Aeroflot Airline.

We appreciate the effort, my friend! Still a very good video, hats off to you guys and keep up the good work and always be safe out there.

Better food than you'll get in economy class on any 90-minute flight in the US...

[@PDRstudiosAviation]

Lets take into perspective that they probably put on quite the show, and its probably not normal

[@user-ux8hg8bk3e]

No, international flights they have to give food. Domestic Flights don't have to unless they are very long. US airlines are cheap charlies!

[@player1GR]

Oh this engine sound. Outdated engines, yes, but still pretty good. Sound of these engines = sound of my childhood and youth

[@IFlyPlanes]

Great report considering you cannot film on this airline, I hope you're okay after your trip back from North Korea.

[@ianturner3017]

Glad you show the entire take off and landing at normal speed, even though it was raining all the time!

Well done for all of your effort. I absolutely love your videos and can't stop watching them! 👍

Air Koryo isn‘t even that bad. Western ratings are so biased

[@jlust6660]

In case of Air Koryo they're just kinda stupid, it's not like you'll have a choice in what airline to fly to North Korea

[@drevildog1]

This was a risky one. We can see that air Koryo is simply what it is. A basic need of transportation. Korea doesn't have the funds to be at the western level of airlines. Great report.

Well, the fact that you were not only able to film, but also survive to upload the video is good. Seems like it would be a hair-raising flight.

If you're a Canadian citizen, getting in and out of North Korea is very easy, and for most other countries' citizens, too. Only Americans and South Korean passport holders are not allowed into the country. I went in November 2017 and the process was extremely easy, including the Beijing part of the journey.

[@Dragflyer9669]

Just wondering did any of the cabin crew spotted that u were filming? because you mention were asked to delete. And did the custom officers check coming in tourists' electronic gadgets' contents when you were at Pyongyang Border ?

[@jsaviation]

I always wonder how Air Koryo's crew gets trained and about the other passengers. Are They from North Korea? And what brings them abroad

Thank you very much! Who'd have known that a Tup[olev 204 would be like any other plane in the world? But thanks for the experience. I hope your arrival (and departure more important!) was as easy as the flight. Thanks. Great!
