Support from THY and AJet to the 'Island Cyprus' project

THY and AJet signed a cooperation agreement within the scope of the TRNC's 'Island Cyprus' project, which includes providing support in diversifying accessible transportation alternatives, regional employment and promotion. The agreement signed by TRNC President Ersin Tatar, TRNC Prime Minister Ünal Üstel and THY and AJet Chairman of the Board Ahmet Bolat will ensure the promotion of TRNC in the international arena in tourism.

Speaking at the ceremony, THY Chairman of the Board and Executive Committee Prof. Dr. Ahmet Bolat said, “We came together to sign our support for the Island Cyprus, a very valuable project that will shape the future of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, as the national flag carrier of Türkiye, and to become the main actor of the ‘Island Cyprus’ brand. We see this agreement not only as a promotional move, but also as a concrete indicator of the deep-rooted ties, friendship and belief in a common future between the two brotherly countries.”

THE CEILING FEE FOR AJET'S TWO FLIGHTS EVERY DAY WAS 6 THOUSAND

Expressing that they are proud of the support THY and AJet gave to this project, Bolat continued his speech as follows;

“Our goal is to make the unique island culture, natural beauties, historical heritage and gastronomic riches of Northern Cyprus visible on a global scale and to carry the island to the position it deserves in tourism. Within the scope of the ‘Island Cyprus’ project, we will operate with an accessible price policy on two daily trips between Istanbul and TRNC with our AJet brand. With a one-way ceiling price tariff of 6 thousand TL on these two trips, we will not only facilitate transportation but also make TRNC a center of attraction for local and foreign tourists.”
