Today it is one of the largest airlines in the world with the widest geography of flights. On its map there are 262 airports in 108 countries of the world, and their number is constantly growing. Residents of Russia today can go anywhere in the world from 10 cities (Moscow, St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg, Ufa, Sochi, Kazan, Stavropol, Astrakhan, Novosibirsk, Rostov-on-Don), and the airline is not going to stop there. Next year, it is planned to open several more new flights from Istanbul to Russian regions. So it is quite possible that new red and white planes will soon appear at the airport of your city..

Since Turkish Airlines flies to the largest number of airports in the world, and many popular destinations are only 2-3 hours from Istanbul, there are a lot of transit passengers among the airline's guests. Turkish Airlines also offer a wide range of different services for them. So, for example, if connecting to an international flight is more than eight hours for business class passengers and more than 10 hours for economy class passengers, they are provided with free accommodation in a partner hotel of the airline or a city tour.
