Pegasus Airlines is now offering a new direct connection from Cologne Bonn Airport to Gaziantep. The first flight to the southeastern Turkish city started on Thursday (June 20, 2024) and will be operated every Thursday in the future.
"Turkey is a key target market for passengers at our airport - both for holidaymakers and for travelers visiting family and friends," explained Thilo Schmid, CEO of Cologne/Bonn Airport GmbH. "The direct connection with Pegasus Airlines to Gaziantep significantly expands our flight offering to Turkey."
Gaziantep, one of Turkey's largest cities with over two million inhabitants, offers a rich history that can be experienced in the Archaeological Museum and the Zeugma Mosaic Museum. The citadel on a hill in the center is one of the city's landmarks. Gaziantep is known for its UNESCO-recognized culinary tradition.
The flight time between Cologne/Bonn and Gaziantep is around four hours. Pegasus Airlines uses an Airbus A320 and a Boeing 737-800 for this route. Tickets can be booked on the website www.flypgs.com/de. In addition to Gaziantep, Pegasus Airlines flies to other destinations in Turkey, including Antalya, Istanbul-Sabiha Gökcen and Izmir.
