Flights to Bodrum will operate twice a week from June 4 until September 1. Meanwhile, Trabzon, a city on the Black Sea coast of northeastern Turkey, will be served with three weekly flights from May 13 until September 1.

The carrier’s destinations this summer will total 78, including seven points in Russia as well as flights to destinations including Baku, Bucharest, Colombo, Maldives, Minsk, Tbilisi, Tel Aviv, Tirana and Zanzibar.

Emirates will codeshare on flights to Bodrum and Trabzon, offering travellers connections through Dubai to 155 destinations between both the Emirates and flydubai networks including Australia, China, Indian Ocean, Japan, South Asia and the US.

Flights can be booked from the carrier’s website or app, its contact centre and through the airline’s travel shops and travel partners.

We have steadily grown our network to more than 75 destinations and we will continue to launch flights to more destinations in the region as restrictions ease.”
