New flights to Turkey launched

Investors looking to Turkey may be pleased to hear news that Pegasus Airlines is launching additional flights to the country from the UK.

Antalya, Bodrum and Dalaman will be the destinations benefitting from the extra flights, which will be available from January 18th and departing from Gatwick, Stansted, Manchester and Birmingham.

During the summer there will be two extra flights to Dalaman a week departing from Manchester and three additional ones from Gatwick.

New journeys to Antalya and Bodrum are also planned with flights from Manchester, Birmingham and Stansted scheduled.

It has been suggested by Investor magazine Quest Turkey that the popularity of the country among British tourists may be due to the favourable exchange rate that exists as a consequence of the country being outside of the eurozone.

In a forecast reported by Hurriyet and issued by the Turkish Association of Real Estate Investment Companies, Turkey's property market is predicted to grow five or six per cent in 2010.

They noted that this was expected to occur despite house prices remaining flat.
