Turkish Airlines’ Friedrichshafen to Istanbul Atatürk
Not one, but two cakes were served to celebrate Turkish Airlines’ new service to Friedrichshafen, securing the airline and the airport this week’s Cake of the Week prize.
During the evening event, Turkish Airlines’ SVP Sales and Marketing, Ziya Taşkent, received a little tutorial on the traditional German size of a cake slice from Friedrichshafen Airport's Chairman, Dieter Hornung.
- Turkish Airlines inaugurated services on five new routes in the course of last week. In addition to its arrival in Friedrichshafen (FDH), of which anna.aero had prepared a special report, the carrier added another German route from Ankara (ESB) on 1 May. Three new routes have also been launched in Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen (SAW), which recently has seen significant interest from the mega carrier.
