About AJet
AJet is a Turkish low-cost airline and a wholly owned subsidiary of Turkish Airlines. It began in 2008 as AnadoluJet, a Turkish Airlines brand, and has flown as a separate airline under the AJet name since April 1, 2024. Its head office is in Istanbul. AJet is not a member of an airline alliance, although its parent Turkish Airlines belongs to Star Alliance.
Its main hubs are Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) on the Asian side of Istanbul and Ankara Esenboğa Airport (ESB). Milas-Bodrum Airport was added as a summer base in 2026, and AJet also lists Antalya among its bases. The airline serves about 100 destinations, roughly 39 in Turkey and 61 abroad, with flights across Turkey and to Europe, the Middle East, North Africa, the Caucasus and Central Asia. Its flights are short- and medium-haul; Turkish Airlines operates the group's long-haul flights from Istanbul Airport (IST).
The AJet fleet of about 89 aircraft is made up of Airbus A320-family and Boeing 737 jets, with new Boeing 737-8 aircraft joining through 2026.
Schedules, aircraft assignments, terminals and fare rules can change. Confirm operational details directly with AJet before travel.
