Turkish Airlines announced launching a direct route from Istanbul to Benghazi starting from January 14, 2025.
The CEO of Turkish Airlines, Bilal Ekşi, said the new destination would have three flights a week: On Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Turkish Airlines launched last March its first flights to Mitiga International Airport in Tripoli after a hiatus of about 10 years, following the signing of two memoranda of understanding between the Libyan Civil Aviation Authority and Turkish Airlines.
