New Pegasus destinations
Looking at the above announcement about Pegasus, I wonder if they are being a little optimistic.
Edremit is on the Aegean coast, between Istanbul and Izmir and as such is likely to attract tourist traffic. As far as I am aware, this area is not served from elsewhere in the UK.
However, both Erzurum and Mardin are provincial capitals in the east of the country, where tourism will be limited, and local poverty will limit the number of Turkey-originating passengers.
I wonder if these flights are planned to be direct, or whether they will be extensions to the existing STN-SAW route. This approach allows places such as Ercan (N. Cyprus) to be 'served' from the UK although the aircraft stops in SAW en route.
I think I would be surprised if Pegasus were announcing an additional 14 flights per week to STN.
