largest low cost airline in Turkey and Europe and have modeled its operations on the very

2500 personnel. Turkish airways fly only Boeing 737s and are rapidly transitioning to the newest
737 models – the 737-800. The airline operates in almost the entire part of Asia and Middle East
and has certain European bases too.
