Turkey’s flag carrier Turkish Airlines’ first flight from new Istanbul Airport departed on Wednesday to the capital Ankara.
Flight #TK2124 took off at 11.32 a.m (local time) from Istanbul New Airport to Ankara Esenboga Airport.
With Monday’s opening, two runways — stretching 3,750 and 4,100 meters long — went into service as part of the first phase.
To mark the moment, Turkish Airlines operated the #TK2124 flight with a Boeing 777-300ER (reg. TC-LFJ) instead of a Boeing 737-800.
