i wonder if they are replacing anadolujet? They were going to be daily on AYT/DLM but cancelled their plans.

worth nothing that Sun Express are also part owned by Turkish Airlines.... Anadolujet was fully owned by TK....

be good to get a few more routes from Sun Express (Dalaman/Izmar the obvious 2) but this is a step in the right diretion

Has Andolujet dropped these routes or will they compete with sun express?

They are like all the others, basic fare, then the next one where you get a snack box and a bottle of water and then the premium fare, ooooooooooooooooooooooh

Great news of additions to our flights available from Brum - but can anyone confirm which flights are going to go ahead, as these seem very similar times to others by Anduljet & Turkish airlines & as they are all Airlines from same group owner

From BHX the only routes which are on sale for next summer are Sun Express to AYT and Turkish to IST, so no real overlap there.

It appears that AnadoluJet was the plan this year but so far it has not been put on sale for 2022. They might feel that Sun Express will work better for BHX.

Corendon on sale s22 I beleive but not part of the TK group

No Anadolujet for 2022 so this should replace it.

It would be nice to see Dalaman follow.

Sun Express essentially year round with 1 weekly Antalya. There are certain weeks with no flights but good to see a carrier maintain presence on the route.

Sun Express expanding their flights to Antalya.

the extra 2 flights on a Sunday and Wednesday from July are now showing on Airbus A320's, so presumably these will be leased in aircraft as Sun Express don't have any A320s! SmartLynx again?
