Turkish Airlines has announced plans to relaunch flights between Ankara and Rome in 2019.

The airline, which launched its first service to Italy in 1959,  will resume operations between the two capital cities after 60 years of hiatus, the airline said in a statement.

The new service is expected to be operated twice weekly, on Mondays and Thursdays, starting from January 7, 2019.

Turkish Airlines currently operates 131 flights per week through eight destinations in Italy, including Rome, Milan, Venice, Pisa, Bologna, Naples, Catania and Bari, both from Istanbul Atatürk International Airport and Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport. - TradeArabia News Service
