Pegasus Airlines, a prominent Turkish low-cost carrier, is expanding its reach by introducing a new flight route to Spain this September. The airline will operate flights between Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen Airport and Seville Airport, a connection currently not offered on a regular basis, according to OAG Schedules Analyser. This new service will begin on September 24th, with flights scheduled for Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.
Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport, situated on the Asian side of Istanbul, is a bustling hub that serves as the primary base for Pegasus Airlines. In 2023, the airport saw a record 37 million travelers, with international traffic experiencing a significant surge from 5.3 million in 2020 to nearly 19.4 million in 2023.
Seville Airport, the primary gateway to Western Andalusia and its surrounding provinces, is Spain’s sixth busiest inland airport. With connections to 42 destinations across Europe and Northern Africa, it handled over 7.5 million passengers in 2019, highlighting its importance as a crucial connection point in southern Spain. This new route from Pegasus Airlines is expected to further enhance the connectivity between Turkey and Spain, offering travelers more options for exploring both destinations.
