Turkish Airlines started its flights to Italy’s Palermo city

KATHMANDU: Flying to more countries than any other airlines in the world, Turkish Airlines has expanded its flight network to include Palermo, the capital of the island of Sicily in southern Italy, increasing its number of destinations in the country to nine.

The flag carrier will operate the Palermo flights on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays, making a total of four reciprocal flights per week, following its routes to Rome, Milan, Venice, Naples, Bergamo, Bologna, Catania, and Bari in Italy.

On the new destination, Turkish Airlines CEO Bilal Ekşi stated; “We are glad to add Palermo to our extensive flight network as our 344th worldwide and 9th Italian destination. As we strengthen our bonds with Italy with the new route, our guests from Palermo will be able to enjoy the unparalleled flight network of our flag carrier on their travels while our guests from all around the world will have the chance to experience Palermo’s wonders with Turkish Airlines privilege.”

The planned flights to Palermo will be operated with Boeing 737-800 type aircraft from Istanbul Airport to Punta Raisi Airport. Turkish Airlines offers passengers the opportunity to travel at special launch prices starting from 259 US dollars, including all taxes for round-trip flights.

Founded by Phoenician traders and boasting a cosmopolitan culture, the city of Palermo derives its name from the Ancient Greek word "panormus," which means "all harbor." With agriculture and trade as its primary sources of income, Palermo attracts many domestic and foreign tourists every year.
