Starting in December, flights will operate four times a week, initially including a refuelling stop in Kuala Lumpur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Non-stop services to Sydney are anticipated by 2026, with Melbourne to follow by 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe are proud that Turkish Airlines chose Sydney and New South Wales for its first non-stop service, which is a strong endorsement of everything our city and state has to offer,\u201d said Sydney Airport CEO Scott Charlton. \u201cWith T\u00fcrkiye consistently rated as one of the top destinations for Australian travellers, we\u2019re confident this service will be strongly supported.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Turkish Airlines Chairman Ahmet Bolat stated that the development makes it easier for travellers from both countries to explore each other&#8217;s rich heritage, vibrant cultures and breathtaking landscapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis new route not only enhances our flight network but also reaffirms our commitment to our presence in Australia as we connect our guests to new opportunities and experiences,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new flights are expected to bring an additional 68,620 inbound seats to Sydney over 12 months, supporting 290 jobs and generating an estimated A$53 million for New South Wales visitor economy, according to the state\u2019s Minister for Jobs and Tourism John Graham.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"lux_UI lux_offer_carousel\">\n\t\n\t<h3>Discover Istanbul<\/h3>\t\n\t<section class=\"splide lux_offer_carousel_feed\" aria-label=\"Discover Istanbul\">\n\t\n\t\t<div class=\"splide__arrows\">\n\t\t<button class=\"splide__arrow splide__arrow--prev\"><\/button>\n\t\t<button class=\"splide__arrow splide__arrow--next\"><\/button>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t<div class=\"splide__track\">\n\t\t<div class=\"splide__list\">\n\t\t\t\n<div id=\"offer_6abff3df-00df-4325-bf3c-70fdbb9cd228\" class=\"splide__slide offer_item type_hotel cacheid_2e3a44a6df578a77bdab1edac1850e9c\">\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/us\/partner\/galatas-hotel\/6abff3df-00df-4325-bf3c-70fdbb9cd228\" data-le=\"promo\" data-type=\"offer partner LPP carousel  \" data-name=\"Galata\u2019s Hotel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"offer_link_wrap\">\t<div class=\"offer_preview\">\n\t\t<figure><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/images.luxuryescapes.com\/q_auto:eco,c_fill,g_auto,ar_16:9,w_1200\/k07k7d6g1mgy5fwe1df.webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images.luxuryescapes.com\/q_auto:eco,c_fill,g_auto,ar_16:9,w_250\/k07k7d6g1mgy5fwe1df.webp 250w, https:\/\/images.luxuryescapes.com\/q_auto:eco,c_fill,g_auto,ar_16:9,w_400\/k07k7d6g1mgy5fwe1df.webp 400w, https:\/\/images.luxuryescapes.com\/q_auto:eco,c_fill,g_auto,ar_16:9,w_600\/k07k7d6g1mgy5fwe1df.webp 600w, https:\/\/images.luxuryescapes.com\/q_auto:eco,c_fill,g_auto,ar_16:9,w_800\/k07k7d6g1mgy5fwe1df.webp 800w, https:\/\/images.luxuryescapes.com\/q_auto:eco,c_fill,g_auto,ar_16:9,w_1200\/k07k7d6g1mgy5fwe1df.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 250px) 250px, 250px\" alt=\"Galata\u2019s Hotel, Istanbul, Turkey\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\"><\/figure>\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"offer_details\">\n\t\t<div class=\"location\"><i><\/i><span>Istanbul, Turkey<\/span><\/div><div class=\"name\">Galata\u2019s Hotel<\/div><div class=\"tagline\">Take time to pamper yourself with a visit to the full-service spa.
