AJet, a subsidiary of Turkish Airlines, continues its growth in international routes by adding Madrid and Barcelona, the capital and one of the most popular cities of Spain, to its direct flight network from Ankara.
AJet’s first direct flight between Ankara and Madrid took place yesterday, while the Ankara–Barcelona flights have also commenced. In this way, AJet has expanded its international network by directly connecting the capital city Ankara with two major European destinations.
“We Are Connecting Ankara with the Capitals of the World”
Ahmet Bolat, Chairman of the Board of Turkish Airlines (THY) and AJet, stated that AJet considers international expansion as a strategic goal within the scope of its “Ankara+ (Plus)” project, saying:
“As the airline operating the most domestic and international flights from Ankara, we are building air bridges between our capital and the capitals of the world.”
Bolat also emphasised that AJet plans to add Aleppo, Bucharest, Sofia, Rome, Milan, Brussels, Athens, Zurich, Sulaymaniyah, and Yerevan to its flight network by the end of 2026.
Weekly Flight Days Announced
Within the scope of the new routes, Ankara–Madrid flights will operate on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays, while Ankara–Barcelona flights will operate on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays.
With these new direct flights from the heart of Türkiye to Europe, AJet aims to enhance the international connectivity of Ankara Esenboğa Airport and provide more travel options for passengers flying from the capital to Europe.
