In the fleet of Interflug, the state airline of East Germany, it served from the 1960s until the 1990s, being one of the cornerstones of civil aviation in the Eastern Bloc. The TU-134 made its debut in 1967 and was widely used until the early 21st century, especially in Eastern Europe, Asia, and Africa. The Interflug livery model represents an aircraft used on both international and domestic routes during the Cold War era.
