Turkish increases Manila capacity

Turkish Airlines has announced that as a result of its gradual phase out of the aging Airbus A340-300 fleet from their own mainline operations, it will be increasing capacity on the Istanbul-Manila route effective 27MAR16.

The original plan was to operate 3 weekly B77Ws along with 3 A343s on a nonstop basis, however from the on set of the IATA S16 season, all 6 weekly flights will be flown by the 349 seater B77W thus representing an increase of 210 seats per direction per week.
