Turkish Airlines expands international reach

Turkish Airlines is set to expand its international reach even further with flights to Mexico from August 2019. The three-times-a-week flights, connecting Istanbul with Mexico City and Cancun, will use the airline's B787-9 aircraft and will operate out of the New Istanbul Airport.

The airline intends on adding more countries to its list in 2019. These include Sharjah in the UAE, Bali in Indonesia and Rovaniemi in Finland. It will also add three new African destinations - Marrakesh, Port Sudan and Luxor - to its list of 55 destinations on the continent.
