Turkish Airlines Launches Flights to Ohrid, North Macedonia

Turkish Airlines has initiated flights to Ohrid, one of North Macedonia’s essential tourist cities, expanding its global network to 353 destinations. This marks the airline’s second destination in North Macedonia, following the capital, Skopje.

Türkiye’s national carrier offers four weekly flights from Istanbul Airport to Ohrid St. Paul the Apostle Airport during the summer months. This new route enhances Turkish Airlines’ regional reach, providing travelers with more options across Europe.

“At Turkish Airlines, we believe that our newly launched flights to/from Ohrid, one of Europe’s oldest settlements, will create new opportunities for both tourism and business. Additionally, it will further enhance cultural exchange with Ohrid, a city that reflects the essence of the Balkans and carries traces of the Ottoman heritage.”
