JetBlue Airways (New York) and Turkish Airlines (Istanbul) today announced the launch of a unilateral codeshare to provide expanded travel options for customers worldwide.
Turkish Airlines is now placing its “TK” code unilaterally on select JetBlue-operated flights to/from New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport and Boston Logan International Airport. Flights are available for sale through travel agencies and Turkish Airlines reservations for travel beginning today.
