Getting a jump on the May holidays, President-elect Zelenskiy flew Saturday for a family weekend break in Bodrum, Turkey’s resort city on the Aegean. Two weeks ago, Turkish Airlines started a weekly flight from Kyiv Boryspil to Bodrum. On June 13, Pegasus starts flights to Bodrum from Kyiv Sikorsky. Turkish Airlines, with flights from Kyiv, Kharkiv, Kherson, Lviv, Odesa, and Zaporozhia, carried 800,000 passengers on its Ukraine flights last year, a 28% increase over 2017. Benefitting from a visa-free, passport-free Turkey-Ukraine travel regime, Ukraine ranks 7th as a source of foreign tourists for Turkey.
