We also implement all required measures determined by the local authorities at our Latvia station and we completed preparations in our Saudi Arabia station. Health and safety of our employees and passengers is always our priority. In the past period, we played a significant role by providing services to repatriation flights, passenger flights, scheduled cargo flights and flights carrying aid materials together with limited number of employees. We are fully and completely ready for operation at our 31 stations in Turkey. For the first stage, we began welcoming scheduled flights at twenty airports. We expect all our remaining stations to begin providing services at full capacity in the following days.”
