A gold-plated toilet seat, king-size bed and a GYM: Astonishing pictures reveal the opulent interior of Vladamir Putin's luxury private airliner

From a gold-plated toilet to a king sized bed and even a gym, these astonishing pictures show the lavish interior of one of Vladimir Putin's private jets.

The Russian president's aircraft touched down in the Finnish capital, Helsinki, yesterday ahead of his historic meeting with Donald Trump.

And Putin will have travelled from the Kremlin to the summit in style on board one of his £390million IL-96-300PU planes.

The aircraft is a wide-bodied, long-haul airliner that is easily distinguishable from the passenger model by its extended fuselage.

While the exterior of the aircraft looks largely the same as the basic model, the cabin is lavishly decorated with tapestries and gold accents.
