Turkish Boom Hit By Syrian Conflict

According to Avinode (Stand 212), the Sweden-based aviation business intelligence house and charter marketplace, although Turkey has been experiencing major growth in business aviation in recent times, with an increase of 4.8 percent from January to October, this has now been hit by the effect of the conflict in neighboring Syria.

The growth trend can still be considered to mark Turkey out as a rising star, but it also alludes to poor domestic ground transport infrastructure such that domestic business aviation has become increasingly crucial to filling the gap, and is thus vital to growth in an economically vibrant nation. Internationally, too, Turkey is experiencing solid growth in business traffic, underlining its geographically advantageous position between Europe, the Middle East and CIS countries.
