FOREWORD
As we leave behind the first 100 years of our Republic, we are rapidly moving forward to achieve even more ambitious goals.
We have realized the projects we promised to our nation one by one and have added significant value to Türkiye’s economy.
One of the most important goals we set when we took office was to take Turkish Airlines, our national flag carrier brand, to the very top of the global aviation industry.
To this end, we have made tremendous strides over the last 20 years.
We transformed a regional brand with limited reach into a global powerhouse that is one of Türkiye’s best known brands in the world today. This major achievement has made us very proud. Over these two decades, despite global political, social, and economic setbacks and negative developments such as the Covid-19 pandemic, we have steadily and diligently developed Turkish Airlines with new investments.
As a country, Türkiye is now a global player in the aviation field thanks to the success of Turkish Airlines.
Once again, Turkish Airlines set new records in 2023, demonstrating its ongoing excellence and superiority.
Turkish Airlines, now a preferred brand for millions around the globe, is leading the world aviation sector.
Over the last 20 years, Turkish Airlines has extended its wings to 129 countries on five continents, making flying the preferred mode of transportation for people worldwide.
Istanbul Airport, built without any cost to the state treasury, has added momentum to Turkish Airlines’ rise.
Thanks to the exceptional passenger experience provided by Turkish Airlines, Istanbul Airport has set an example to the world and garnered many prestigious awards.
In 2023, Turkish Airlines celebrates its 90 th anniversary as we celebrate the centenary of the Republic of Türkiye.
During this very important year, I would like to thank the Turkish Airlines family for representing Türkiye and the Turkish nation all around the world.
I sincerely believe that we will achieve even greater success together with our nation who strongly support Turkish Airlines, one of our country’s most valuable assets.
Recep Tayyip ERDOĞAN President of Türkiye
