Turkey plans to tap expanding Indian tourist market

The ministry of culture and tourism, Republic of Turkey has identified the expanding tourist market in India, not only in terms of leisure tourists but also Meetings Incentives Conventions and Exhibitions (MICE) as well as Bollywood. A high level Turkish delegation led by the minister of culture and tourism, Atilla Koc recently made its first trip to India - a milestone of sorts - to identify opportunities and promote the destination in India.
Until now the Turkish tourism ministry was taking the pulse of the Indian market through its national carrier Turkish Airlines. Koc informed that the airline, which currently operates three flights from Mumbai and four from New Delhi, is planning to up the frequency and even connect neighbouring countries with whom, Koc added, Turkey works in tandem to promote circuit tourism.
