Turkish Airlines to resume Istanbul–Caracas flights from 1 October

Turkish Airlines will restore regular service between Istanbul and Caracas from 1 October, ending a suspension that followed earthquakes in late June. The carrier's booking system shows four weekly frequencies on the route.

Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners are scheduled for the link.

Departures from Istanbul fall into two windows. On Mondays and Thursdays the flight leaves Turkey at 15:40 and is due into Caracas at 21:20. On Tuesdays and Saturdays it departs at 17:00 and arrives at 22:40.

Return legs from Caracas also follow two patterns. On Mondays and Thursdays the aircraft leaves Maiquetía at 23:10 and reaches Istanbul at 17:50 the following day. On Wednesdays and Sundays it departs at 00:30 and is scheduled into Turkey at 19:10.

With the route reopened, the airline returns to its regular connection between the two cities, normalising passenger and cargo flows.
