Kuban Airlines (Krasnodar) is a relatively unknown carrier from Russia despite the fact it was established and started operations in 1932 as a division of Aeroflot. The company was privatized in 1992. However this may be changing. The airline is adding its first Boeing 737 and has taken the opportunity to introduce this colorful “flower power” livery.
