In a statement issued by the airline, it has been said that booking for these flights has started from last Tuesday. Through a code share agreement between IndiGo and Turkish Airlines, it was claimed that these new routes and enhanced flight services would improve international connectivity between India-Turkey and beyond.
Consumers will get more options

In the passenger segment, the domestic airline averaged 0.6 tonnes of cargo with a passenger share of 56 per cent in its passenger flights in 2022.
