Budget airline opens up Turkey

Tourism in the Turkish resort of Dalaman is likely to be boosted by forthcoming accessibility improvements.

According to Flyglobespan, weekly flights to the popular holiday destination will be launched from Aberdeen in May.

This means that Dalaman will be far more easily accessible to people living in the vicinity of the Scottish city, thereby enhancing its appeal to potential visitors.

The launch of new flights to the region could also make it more attractive to prospective property investors, as growth in the tourist trade could fuel extra demand for rental accommodation.

Commenting on the new service, Rick Green of Flyglobespan said: "Turkey, with its rich culture, great beach resorts and reputation as a value-for-money destination, is bound to be a winner."

He added that the services to Dalaman are being introduced in response to demand from customers.

According to the Association of British Travel Agents, the European country has become one of the main hotspots for holidaymakers from the UK this summer.

In fact, figures show that the number of bookings has risen by 20 per cent on a year-by-year basis.
