While the Ankara–Madrid route will begin on 24th of October, operating three days a week.
Direct flight fares will start at $109 from Ankara and €99 ($115) from Spain.
AJet, which flies to 29 destinations in 22 countries from Ankara, is the first airline to connect the Turkish capital directly with the two Spanish cities—both famous for their culture and football heritage.
“With our network stretching from Europe to the Caucasus, North Africa to the Middle East, we connect Ankara to the world,” CEO Kerem Sarp said, adding that the airline continues expanding with a growing fleet.
This comes after its larger national carrier, Turkish Airlines announced an increase in its flight operations to China.
