Re: News from THY - Turkish Airlines
THY is starting Banjul (Gambia) from 30.November.18 and Lusaka (Zambia) 12.December.18.
Turkish CAA has signed a bilateral agreement with Lesotho CAA so both countries planes can fly to each other. (I am sure THY will show interest in this market soon).

Re: News from THY - Turkish Airlines
Don't be surprised SN26567. Domestic flights are so popular these days in Turkey they will fill in every plane they fly especially on IST-ADB flights that is very popular among the Turkish domestic pax. Also they follow the motto: The airplane will only make money if it is airborne.
To your comments about Porto flights and B737 MAX 9: more pax, more cargo, the connection with TAP Portugal to other destinations.
Re: News from THY - Turkish Airlines
Turkish Airlines to start new flights to Chennai, Kolkata, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad, Amritsar and Bengaluru. It also plans to double its operations in Mumbai and Delhi.
It appears like THY sees a big market in India.

Agree with the comment that the current bilateral agreement will not allow THY to fly more destinations in India. Needs to be revised.
