Turkish Airlines was presented the award for the best carrier to connect Greece with the rest of the world at the Active Greece Awards 2015 held recently in Athens. The Turkish carrier operates in more than 260 world destinations with flights from Athens and Thessaloniki and will continue its efforts to develop relations between Turkey and Greece both socially and economically. The frequency of flights between the two countries would increase in 2015 to boost “accessibility” and economic growth, said Turkish Airlines General Manager Alp Yavuzeser. The award was also presented at the forum of Business Excellence in the Field of Extraversion in recognition of the airlines' contribution to the development in commercial activities between the two countries and passenger traffic increase between Turkey and Greece.
