Turkish Airlines, the national carrier, is set to launch flights to Kharkiv, the second largest city in Ukraine, starting from March 30.

With this launch, the airline will add another new destination in Ukraine to its extensive flight network thus living up to its title of “the carrier that flies to the most countries in the World” with 295 destinations in 119 countries.

Kharkiv flights will be operated four times weekly on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Sundays and then gradually increased to seven times per week as of May 30.

Round trip fares are available from Istanbul to Kharkiv starting from $109 (including taxes and fees), said the airline.

Additionally, for the first six months of operation to the new destinations, there is a special offer for Miles & Smiles members, with a 25 per cent reduction in the miles needed to redeem either award tickets or upgrades, it added.-TradeArabia News Service
