SunExpress, the joint venture between Lufthansa and Turkish Airlines, has officially launched a new direct route connecting Liverpool John Lennon Airport (LJLA) with Antalya, Turkey. The new service, which commenced on Sunday, April 6, will operate thrice a week throughout the summer.
Passengers can now enjoy nonstop flights to the heart of the Turkish Riviera, with return fares starting from just £189.99. All flights on the route will be operated by SunExpress’ fleet of Boeing 737 aircraft.

As an airline committed to connecting our passengers and their loved ones to their dream destinations, we are confident that this service will offer those in the North West a convenient and high-quality travel experience to visit the incredible Turkish Riviera.
Antalya is a world-class destination renowned for its breathtaking coastline, rich history, and exceptional hospitality, and we are excited to make it even more accessible.”
