Starting today, the people of Sydney will have a new way of traveling to Europe as the first Turkish Airlines flight makes its way to Sydney Airport. With four flights a week, they will be able to take thousands of passengers to the vibrant city of Istanbul. This is an exciting development that will not only bring more tourism to Sydney, but also create 68,620 new inbound seats and generate an estimated $53 million for the local economy.
As the Turkish Airlines flights begin operating, there will also be a significant boost to the job market, with 290 new jobs being created at Sydney Airport. Premier Chris Minns is thrilled about the new airline's presence in Sydney and believes it will open up a whole new world of travel possibilities for Aussies. He also sees it as an opportunity for visitors to experience the wonders of New South Wales and contribute to the state's economy.
Speaking about the announcement, Minns said, "Sydney has been voted the top destination in the world for a reason and we are confident that this partnership with Turkish Airlines will only enhance our city's appeal. We are committed to supporting our airports and attracting more tourists to our beautiful state, which will ultimately lead to more job opportunities for the people of NSW."
Sydney Airport's chief executive, Scott Charlton, also expressed his excitement about Turkish Airlines' arrival at the airport. He believes it highlights the important role that Sydney plays as a global aviation hub and is proud that they have chosen to launch their non-stop services in Sydney. The first flight is scheduled to land at 4pm today, marking the beginning of a new era of travel for Sydneysiders.
