THY’s new planes will after opening 3rd Airport in Istanbul fly away from airports such as Australia and New Zealand.
This is an awesome news, as we should be able to see these birds in the skies by next year. Alongside with the opening of the new Istanbul Airport in late 2018. It’s nice to see Turkish Airlines’ strategy to ultilize both birds which will help Turkish Airlines to discover more new cities and also to replace some of older A330s. 😊
