The Tukish Airlines subsidiary Ajet has been granted AOC and operating license by the Turkish Civil Aviation Authority. This means that the prerequisites for the start of flight operations, which are scheduled to take place in March 2024, are met.
Currently, Anadolujet is a brand of Turkish Airlines. In the future, these activities will be continued under the Ajet brand in the form of an independent subsidiary. To this end, numerous machines that are currently registered on the parent company's AOC will switch to that of the new subsidiary.
Turkish Airlines announced some time ago that its cargo and low-cost flight operations would be spun off into new subsidiary airlines. In November 2023, it was announced that AnadoluJet would henceforth operate as Ajet. It has already been stated that the independently operating low-cost carrier plans to expand significantly within Europe.
The necessary certificates were issued by the Turkish Civil Aviation Authority on January 2, 2024. “The application procedures of our subsidiary AJet to obtain an air operator certificate under the Commercial Air Operators Regulation have been completed and AJet was granted an air operator certificate by the General Directorate of Civil Aviation on January 2.01.2024, XNUMX,” the Turkish Airlines subsidiary said in a media statement.
Initially, Ajet will maintain two bases. These are located in Ankara-Esenboğa and Istanbul-Sabiha Gökçen. The fleet will initially consist of 103 aircraft. In 2024 the aim is to fly to 93 destinations in 33 countries. The jets should be re-registered to the new AOC step by step.
