Lore coming soon.
Shown above is VP-BOB, Volgavia's one and only Boeing 757, wearing the old livery first used in the company's inception in 1991. The 757-200 works alongside the airline's two Tupolev Tu-204s as the airline's flagship. Volgavia utilises these aircraft on flights to Western Europe, as well as to flagship destinations in China, such as Shanghai and Beijing. With this aircraft being nearly 30 years old and rapidly aging, a search began back in 2017 for an aircraft that could replace not only the 757, but also the Tu-204s. However, so far, no suitable replacement has been found, and thus, the 757 will continue to operate in the fleet, with its rarity and distinctive livery making it quite a treat for spotters.
