TUI’s first flights from Teesside to Turkey in 16 years have taken off – with holidaymakers already praising the new route.
It is part of the airport’s huge summer season, which is taking off now and also includes TUI’s flights to Majorca, Balkan Holidays’ Bulgaria connections and Ryanair’s services to Corfu, Faro and Majorca joining its year-round Alicante service.
Passengers have been incredibly positive about the new destination – and the scrapped 100ml liquid limit in security. Airport staff received more complements about the smooth experience through security to departures, the relaxed and friendly atmosphere throughout the airport and how happy local people were to be flying to Turkey once again.
