“Turkish Airlines, which is constantly been awarded the best airline in Europe, cooperates only with the best. Therefore, the fact that our strategic partner Adria Airways has been able to establish this code-share agreement with Turkish Airlines under Nordica brand is also a sign of trust for Nordica’s team and partners. Moreover, the current agreement proves the good choice of a partner we have through Adria Airways,” said Sven Kukemelk, Executive Director Business Development of Nordica. “I am sure that this cooperation will definitely benefit greatly both partners and based on this we can further increase Estonian accessibility especially via Istanbul to South-East Asia and Middle-East.”

Since Turkish Airlines and Adria Airways are both members of Star Alliance, the world's largest global airline alliance, and share a joint frequent flyer programs, then passengers will enjoy the highest level of quality and benefits on both airlines.

Nordica is young Estonian airline brand, established with a resolution of the Estonian Government in autumn 2015 to guarantee flight connections for Estonia. In current summer season, Nordica serves passengers on 15 direct routes from Tallinn to different European destinations.
