Flights to Turkey


Antalya’s property market should benefit from the news that British Airways will operate a new route to Antalya from next spring.

Three weekly flights from Gatwick airport will start on April 10th. There will also be regional flights from Stansted, Exeter, Sheffield/Doncaster and Newcastle.

British Airways commercial director Robert Boyle said: “Antalya is in South West Turkey and is an increasingly popular leisure destination with new tourism facilities being developed.

“There is a strong possibility that Easy Jet could also extend into this part of Turkey, s they already fly into Istanbul. Add to this a brand new airport scheduled for Alayna and you can see how this part of the world is really opening up. Competition from airlines can only bring cheaper flights.”

The Turkish property market is reportedly ripe for investment at the moment. Prospects for capital growth in Turkey currently looks good. Robert Nixon Turkish developers Nirvana International commented: “Increased flights from the UK to Turkey can only help to increase the number of tourists and investors, as this remarkable country goes from strength to strength.”
