Turkish Airlines (THY) plans to launch flights to the Colombian capital Bogota, as well as Aqaba in Jordan and Bamako in Mali.

The Turkish carrier says in a brief stock market statement that it plans to begin scheduled flights to all three destinations based on aircraft availability and obtaining route authorisation. No details on likely launch dates have been released.

Bogota is the home base of THY's new Star Alliance partner AviancaTaca. Innovata schedules show there is currently no scheduled service linking Istanbul and Bogota.
