Russian tourists flock to Turkey as flights resume
Russia suspended air traffic with Turkey in April due to a spike in coronavirus cases, but infections have since gone down significantly in Turkey and vaccinations are up.
Thousands of Russian tourists arrived in Turkey on Tuesday following the resumption of flights between the two countries.
A Turkish Airlines flight from Moscow was the first to land in Antalya. Turkish authorities estimated that 12,000 tourists would arrive to the Mediterranean coastal city throughout the day.
