Turkish Airlines is all set to resume direct flights to Zambian capital Lusaka starting March 26, 2023 after a two-year hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Istem Cırcıroğlu, Türkiye's Ambassador to Zambia while speaking to Anadolu Agency said: "This is a positive development for both Türkiye and Zambia as the direct flights between Istanbul and Lusaka will facilitate business trips, travel and tourism. Turkish Airlines, as a world-class and five-star global airline, will enable Zambian citizens easier trips to Türkiye and better options of connections to other destinations.”
The flights between Turkiye and Zambia were grounded in March 2020 during the pandemic.
"Zambians should take advantage of the direct flights to visit Türkiye and sample its rich cultural heritage and opportunities for business," Cırcıroğlu further added.
