Pegasus Airlines adds Turkey flights
With Turkey now removed from the red list, low cost carrier Pegasus Airlines has ramped up its schedule to meet a spike in demand for autumn sunshine holidays.
It has expanded its schedule and the number of direct flights from London Stansted and Manchester to Turkey and beyond.
Pegasus has reinstated direct flights to Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen Airport from London Stansted, with twice-daily flights
Flights are now on sale from £49.99 one-way.
Five times weekly direct flights are now also operating from Manchester Airport to Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen Airport from £74.99.
Both routes offer onward connections across Pegasus’ network of 36 destinations in Turkey, including popular coastal resorts such as Bodrum, Dalaman and Antalya – as well its 83 other international destinations.
Pegasus Airlines’ expanded schedule includes five-times weekly direct flights from 21 October between London Stansted and Izmir, on Turkey’s Aegean coast.
Pegasus will also be launching direct flights between London Stansted and Antalya for the winter season on 20 October.
Pegasus Airlines CCO, Güliz Özturk said: "In light of the new announcement putting Turkey back into the amber list, we’re seeing strong growth in our bookings to Turkey from England, and in response to this growing demand and desire for autumn travel, we’re delighted also to be expanding our flight programme."
"We’re planning to further increase the number of our flights from England later in the autumn if demand continues to rise, and we’re very much looking forward to welcoming our guests back on board."
