Cape Town - Turkey's national carrier, Turkish Airlines continues to grow, particularly in Africa.
Already flying to 296 destinations in 120 countries, the national flag carrier further expands its reach in Africa, adding Antalya-Algeria-Antalya route to its flight network during this year's summer season in Europe.
Flights will operate three-times a week between Antalya and Algeria, making it easier to reach Turkey's tourism centre directly from North Africa.
Scheduled flight times for Algeria- Antalya as from July 8, 2017
Flight number TK 659 will operate from July 8, 2017 - September 23, 2017. Monday, Wednesday and Saturday from 23:50 and arrive at 02:00 LMT.
Flight number TK 600 will operate from July 09, 2017 - September 24, 2017. Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sunday from 03:00 and arriving at 08:35 LMT.
Turkish Airlines is looking to expand their footprint even further into Africa and is investing heavily in expansion into Africa, and especially into South Africa. SA now has year-round, daily direct flights from Cape Town and Johannesburg to Istanbul, and travels to Istanbul from Durban via Johannesburg five times a week.
As from 30 January 2017, the capital of the Republic of Guinea, Conakry, will become the 296th destination in 120 countries that will be served by Turkish Airlines. Adding yet another city and country to the carrier's African network which will then serve 51 destinations on the continent - more than any other international carrier.
