Istanbul is an amazing place, full of endless possibilities for sightseeing and activities. Therefore, I am positive that our colleagues in the travel industry and our shared clients residing in the northern region will share in our enthusiasm for this destination.

Ali Gayward, the UK country manager for EasyJet, expressed her happiness about the inclusion of Istanbul in the airline's network. It is an exciting new destination for EasyJet passengers to travel to.

Although there have been devastating earthquakes in other areas, we are grateful that our region has not been impacted. However, we are still accepting contributions during our flights to support UNICEF's urgent fundraising campaign.

We express our gratitude towards all our patrons who have already made a contribution to support UNICEF and the relief work in the earthquake-affected areas of Turkey and Syria. They have been extremely generous and kind in raising a sum of £400,000 for this cause. This financial aid will go a long way in helping the volunteers of UNICEF to provide essential aid and assistance to the affected families and children in the region.
