Turkish Airlines Expands Network with Ohrid Flights in North Macedonia

Turkish Airlines has further strengthened its presence in Southern Europe by launching flights to Ohrid, a key tourism destination in North Macedonia. With this addition, Ohrid becomes Turkish Airlines' second destination in North Macedonia after Skopje, the 123rd in Europe, and the 353rd globally.

Recognized as one of Europe's most ecologically diverse areas, Ohrid Lake was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1979. The entire city of Ohrid followed in 1980, gaining UNESCO protection for its historical, cultural, and natural significance.

Turkish Airlines now operates four weekly flights between Istanbul Airport and Ohrid St. Paul the Apostle Airport, enhancing regional connectivity and offering travelers more options.

During the winter season, flights will operate on Thursdays and Fridays. In the summer season, flights will be available on Mondays, Sundays, Thursdays, and Fridays.

A special inaugural ceremony marked the launch of Turkish Airlines' first flight from Istanbul to Ohrid. Among the distinguished attendees were Turkish Airlines CEO Bilal Ekşi, TAV Airports CEO Serkan Kaptan, TAV Macedonia General Manager Nejat Kurt, TAV Macedonia Deputy General Manager Pero Lupevski, Prime Minister Hristijan Mickoski, and Deputy Prime Minister Aleksandar Nikoloski.

Passengers on the first flight were welcomed with a taste of local culture, enjoying traditional ajvar and Ohrid makalo, as well as receiving unique postcards showcasing the city's landmarks.
