Easyjet's new route from Gatwick to Antalya is a huge testament to the growth potential of Turkish tourism, and will boost occupancy of holiday rental properties in the area substantially according to Turkish property specialists.
From May this year Easyjet will run three weekly flights from Gatwick to Antalya, using new Airbus A320's due to arrive at the airline's Gatwick base this spring. The latest delivery taking the total number of Gatwick based aircraft to 41 and increasing the network to 83 routes.
Last year Easyjet increased the frequency of its flights to two of Turkey's other hotspots: Bodrum and Dalaman.
It is little wonder that Easyjet is focussing so much of its expansion on Turkey, recent data from Anna Aero shows that the volume of air traffic to Turkey from Britain grew 9.4% in 2009, the biggest growth of all global destinations.
