Turkish Airlines is expanding
its presence in Africa with direct flights launched between Istanbul and
Zanzibar.
“Turkish Airlines is proud to
transport people around the globe to experience new cultures, share ideas and
create memories that will stay with them for a lifetime.
We are delighted to open the
new route to Zanzibar, a truly remarkable destination.
We continually seek out
opportunities to expand our network and look forward to welcoming our
passengers on their way to Zanzibar in the near future,” Ahmet Olmu, Chief

Saturdays, in both directions.
