PH, Turkey to double air service entitlements
The Philippines and Turkey have agreed to double their air service entitlements in a bid to serve rising tourism and trade between the two countries. Transportation Undersecretary Roberto Lim and Turkish Civil Aviation Acting Director General Dr. Kemal Yüksek signed a memorandum of understanding following consultations last March 28-29, 2023 in Istanbul. Aviation services in both countries will benefit as a result, Lim said. The air talks resulted in a doubling of passenger air service entitlements on the Manila-Istanbul route from the previous seven flights per week on each side to 14 flights per week. Philippine representatives were able to persuade their counterparts to operate half or seven of the total Turkish entitlements to Manila on a co-terminal basis with Cebu.<br/>
