Turkish Airlines will arrange a UAE tourist visa for passengers flying with them from Turkey (press release 14 December 2009). Passengers need to have passport with at least 6 months validity, apply in person at a Turkish Airlines office in Turkey, and submit application at least 5 days before travelling. Looks like only people living in Turkey can apply … “Turkish Airlines (THY) is now offering passengers residing in Turkey” said the press release. Presumably that means residents of any nationality?
Turkish Airlines flights to the UAE are
- 4x weekly from Istanbul Ataturk Airport to Abu Dhabi International Airport (AUH).
- 2x daily from Istanbul Ataturk Airport and Dubai International Airport (DXB).
