Turkish Airlines carried 162,483 tonnes of cargo in April, an increase of 34 percent from the same period last year, mainly driven by the 36 percent increase in international cargo carried at 158,090 tonnes.

Central & South America reported a 65 percent increase in volume at 4,998 tonnes followed by Europe (49,903 tonnes, up 40.8 percent) and Middle East (13,586 tonnes, up 38.4 percent).

Domestic cargo carried declined nine percent to 4,393 tonnes, says an official release.

While the market growth rate was around eight percent in March, according to data from WorldACD, Ali Turk, Chief Cargo Officer, Turkish Airlines said in a LinkedIn post: “We achieved a remarkable growth of 30 percent and ranked among the top three. I extend my sincere congratulations to all our teammates whose dedication and hard work have made this achievement possible.”
