SunExpress, a joint venture of Lufthansa and Turkish Airlines, will make its debut at Glasgow airport next year with flights to two destinations in Turkey.
The airline will offer six flights a week from Glasgow next summer – four to Antalya and two to Dalaman – with services starting at the beginning of April 2025.
Bookings for the direct Glasgow flights to Turkey – also known as Türkiye – are now open.
Tobias Bracht, head of sales for SunExpress, said Antalya and Dalaman are two of the most popular destinations in Turkey.
SunExpress offers a range of fare options with the basic SunEco option including at least 20kgs of checked baggage on international flights.
For small additional payments, passengers can upgrade to SunClassic and SunPremium fares with added benefits such as increased baggage allowance, pre-flight seat selection, inclusive onboard meals and the ability to amend bookings without extra charge.
Christopher Tibbett, aero director at AGS Airports, which owns Glasgow airport, welcomed SunExpress to the hub.
“Both Antalya and Dalaman are firm favourites with our customers, so the addition of an extra 1,200 seats per week bound for two of Türkiye’s most popular destinations is fantastic news,” he said.
SunExpress is operating 200 routes to 68 destinations across 35 countries in 2024.
