Turkish published schedule update which includes Antalya, good to see that its going ahead

Antalya – Birmingham eff 10JUN20 2 weekly 737-800, new route (Previously scheduled from 03JUN20)

Pleasantly surprised to see that route survive, thought it was certain to be chopped if I‘m honest.

However I wouldn't take the 10th June as gospel as the foreign office advice is to not travel abroad so how does that work ?

 

[Ash]

There always seems to be enough people who will take the chance if the price is right.

Hey all,

According to local news here in Turkey, arrivals from the UK are allowed from the 15th July. Maybe that date will change and be brought forward. All cafés, restaurants and beaches were opened as of today, so there maybe some hope

Cheers

Karl

Great to see Turkish Airlines back on the departures board for tomorrow to Istanbul!

Can't quite work out what frequency they will be doing as it is showing daily for next few days and then is blanked out and says not operating or flight full for a few days.

I would imagine that Turkish will be able to cash in at the moment with no PIA, Emirates or Qatar.

Also great to see that Turkish have already placed it's flights to Antalya on sale for 2021.

From what I can see, as of today so subject to change, its 1 flight per day Mon, Thu, Fri & Sat for the rest of July and August, then double daily from 1st September.

Great that Turkish are continuing in these tricky times & as before I’m sure they will alter their schedule if the demand is there

Every Monday I assumed it was a one-off!

Looks quite nice inside, is this typical for the Dreamliner or is it more condensed on a TUI version?

Every Monday until the end of the year (bar the odd day), hopefully it'll continue into 2021.

Is it known if they are picking up a lot of the Pakistan traffic? A jump from B737/A320 to B789 seems a big step unless there is high demand.
