President Recep Tayyip Erdogan stated, “According to the figures for the year 2023, Turkish Airlines has contributed $56 billion to our country’s economy and has solidified its leadership in the sector with approximately $16 billion in service exports.”

In a video message sent to the Turkish Airlines Management Summit, President Erdogan expressed his hope for the success of the summit and wished it to be beneficial.

Reflecting his satisfaction at joining the summit, even through a video message, to conclude a year filled with achievements that have made the nation proud and to begin 2024 with even greater goals, Erdogan stated:

“As part of our Turkey Century vision, we are confidently and decisively moving towards the future. The success bar of our country continues to rise in the aviation sector. Turkish Airlines, not only as the most valuable brand in Turkey but also as the airline flying to the most countries in the world, has made a name for itself with its contributions to our country’s economy.

According to the figures for the year 2023, Turkish Airlines has contributed $56 billion to our country’s economy and has solidified its leadership in the sector with approximately $16 billion in service exports. We are pleased to see Antalya, the shining star of world tourism, also benefiting from the strong wings of Turkish Airlines. I sincerely congratulate you, my brothers and sisters, whom I see as the architects of all these achievements, with admiration.”

Highlighting the significance of the 350-plane order announced by Turkish Airlines in the final weeks of last year as a meaningful reflection of their future vision, Erdogan concluded, “With these thoughts, I once again greet the Turkish Airlines family, who are working to proudly raise our flag higher in the skies. May your skies be clear.”
