Turkish low-cost airline changes name

Last autumn, Turkish Airlines, the owner, decided to create a completely separate airline, changing its name and corporate identity. The Turkish low-cost airline has thus split from Turkish Airlines, turizmus.com reports. Aviareps Hungary Ltd. has represented AJet in Hungary since 2 May this year, the company informed the news portal.

AJet is based at Istanbul’s Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW), located on the Asian side of the Turkish city. A number of domestic and international destinations can be reached from here via connecting flights.

Ajet flies from Budapest to Sabiha Gökçen International Airport three times a week: on Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays. The flight arrives at Liszt Ferenc International Airport (Budapest Airport) in the early afternoon and turns back to Istanbul, landing at SAW in the late afternoon.

The Turkish airline is also planning to launch a Budapest-Ankara flight by 2025, tourism.com learnt from Aviareps.
