Sorry should have quoted that I got it via Skyscrapercity will copy over

Yes Mullion, the MAN thread needs you, looooooooooooooooooooooooool

Just noticed that SunExpress now seems to be the airline of choice for Thomas Cook holidays to Turkey which might go a long way towards explaining their meteoric growth.

Sun express bhx schedule
Antalya:
12x weekly ,2 daily Mon-Fri,1 daily weekends

Dalaman:
11x weekly,2 daily on Tuesdays,Wednesdays,Fridays,Sundays

35 flights peak summer season probably explains why Jet2 have scaled back a little next year.

Still, 25 is a good number of flts per week.😀

I also believe this is unlikely to be the final Sun Express Schedule …but just rumours and a hunch so far. For example, Summer 23 had 3x weekly Imzir and I suspect there maybe a new route on the cards…

If they added Bodrum it would be the icing on the cake

A reliable source reckons Pegasus to Antalya has been appearing sporadically (not bookable though) so one for you to keep an eye on 🙂

See now I don’t if tui are operating Bodrum .If not then why can’t a Turkish airliner take over

 

[mullion]

Why would TUI hand over route as they are UK based pax and TUI only use another operator if they are short of aircraft

Shocked by ur answer to be honest mate.Ryanair seem to expand in Turkey and I do debate to say that I think Bodrum would profit sun express and Birmingham or even corendon .

 

[mullion]

I don`t think Bodrum is on Sun Expresses due list at present infact no Turkish Airline operate to Bodrum from MAN either only British TUI, Easyjet and Jet2

 

[Birmingham Aviation]

I think corendon should operate the route and apparently plan to expand from Birmingham
