The US Transportation Secretary announced the lifting of flight suspension, impacting arrivals and departures involving Turkey.

US Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced the lifting of the flight suspension implemented at all airports nationwide as of 04:15 (Turkey time). This development is closely relevant to travelers between Turkey and the United States.

The resumption of flights is expected to restore normal air connectivity between Turkey and the US. However, operational status at airports and aviation security measures are being closely monitored to ensure smooth service.
