Three decades of SunExpress flight operations at Düsseldorf Airport
In the world of aviation, partnerships that stand the test of time are a testament to mutual trust and high demand. Such is the case with SunExpress and Düsseldorf Airport, a relationship that has flourished for 35 years.
Established in 1989, SunExpress was one of the first destinations in its network, with the first flight taking off from Düsseldorf to Antalya in May 1990. Today, Düsseldorf remains an integral part of SunExpress's network, serving as one of the key hubs for the airline.
Max Kownatzki, CEO of SunExpress, expresses his anticipation for many more years of successful cooperation with Düsseldorf Airport. "Our partnership is built on long-standing trust and high demand in both directions," he says. Kownatzki also emphasizes the strong and reliable partnership with Düsseldorf Airport for travel to Turkey.
Düsseldorf Airport, on the other hand, views SunExpress as one of its strongest airline partners. According to Lars Redeligx, CEO of Düsseldorf Airport, SunExpress offers a wide Turkey portfolio, reliable operations, and a strong regional presence. Last year alone, SunExpress transported over 1.4 million passengers to and from Düsseldorf, operating over 8,600 flights.
The airline caters to a wide range of needs, including vacationers and those visiting friends and relatives (VFR). SunExpress serves the large Turkish community in North Rhine-Westphalia year-round on the Düsseldorf to Antalya route.
Dominik Lelle, a member of the online editorial team at AERO INTERNATIONAL since 2023, is passionate about making the world of aviation accessible and engaging for readers. Outside of the editorial office, Lelle is a passionate traveler, always eager to discover new horizons.
Looking ahead, SunExpress has exciting plans for the future. In the summer of 2025, the airline will offer flights to 20 different Turkish destinations from Düsseldorf, more than any other European airline.
As we celebrate this significant milestone, it's clear that the partnership between SunExpress and Düsseldorf Airport is set to continue for many more years, bringing joy and convenience to travellers seeking to explore the beauty of Turkey.
