Turkey keen to operate more flights in India

New Delhi: Turkey is looking to renegotiate the "outdated" civil aviation agreement with India and operate more flights to the country, Turkish Ambassador to India Burak Akcapar said today.

"The current civil aviation agreement is outdated and far too limited...," Akcapar said here.

Currently, Turkish Airlines operates one flight each from Delhi and Mumbai daily. Turkey's national carrier flies to 105 countries and connects around 230 cities in different parts of the world.

"We are waiting for a new civil aviation agreement between the two countries that would (not only) increase the current frequencies but also open up not less than six cities through connections with the world," he said.
