Air Arabia has announced Trabzon as its latest Turkish destination to enter its route network, starting on June 23.
The new seasonal non-stop service provides passengers with the chance to discover Turkey’s historic port city, in addition to its already existing services to Istanbul, the airline has said in a press statement.
The flight will operate three times a week, on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, departing Sharjah International Airport at 9.30pm and arriving at Trabzon International Airport at 12.05am local time the next day. The return service will depart Trabzon at 12.45am and land in Sharjah at 5am local time.
“Trabzon provides travellers with a unique opportunity to experience Turkey’s coastal region and witness the history behind one of the oldest trading ports in the country,” said Adel al-Ali, Group CEO of Air Arabia. “We are confident that the new destination will provide our visitors with a unique holiday getaway and further cement trade and bilateral ties between the two nations.”
Resting on the bank of the Black Sea, Trabzon is a city filled with religious and historic significance. The picturesque city features a coastal backdrop and is known best for its mystical architecture and bazaars. Situated on the upper east side of the country, Trabzon is a calm metropolis away from the hustle of Istanbul and Ankara.
Air Arabia currently operates flights to 125 routes across the globe from five hubs located in the Middle East and North Africa.
