Move to enhance relations between the two national flag carriers with a Letter of Intent
Turkish Airlines has signed a Letter of Intent with Vietnam Airlines, the national flag carrier of Vietnam, in Ankara today, adding yet another new partnership to its portfolio of collaborations. Signed for its successful air cargo brand, Turkish Cargo, Turkish Airlines is committing to only expand its extensive flight network, but also enter partnerships with airlines around the world.
The signing ceremony was recently held at the Presidential Complex, witnessed by Cevdet Yılmaz, Vice President of Türkiye and Pham Minh Chinh, Prime Minister of Vietnam. The signatories for Turkish Airlines were Bilal Ekşi, Chief Executive Office, and Turhan Özen, Chief Cargo Officer, while Vietnam Airlines was represented by Dang Ngoc Hoa, Chairman of the Board of Directors at Vietnam Airlines.
High potential collaboration
The agreement is set to establish the foundation of a high-potential collaboration between the two airlines, aimed to be further strengthened in the future.
“Asia is one of our key markets at Turkish Airlines. I am hoping our collaboration with Vietnam Airlines will be beneficial and fruitful for both countries and both flag carriers,” commented Ekşi.
“Turkish Airlines will benefit from expanding the scale of its transportation network to previously limited areas such as Oceania, Northeast Asia by taking advantage of Vietnam’s central geographical location as a transit point,” stressed Dang Ngoc Hoa.
