Turkish Airlines has launched direct flights from Istanbul to Jordan’s port city of Aqaba, the carrier’s second destination in the country, according to the company on March 19.

In a statement, the company said three weekly flights to Aqaba would cost starting from $404, including taxes and fees.

“Additionally, there is a special offer for Miles&Smiles members to be used for their trips departing from Turkey—provided they are completed by June 11—and the trips departing from Aqaba—provided they are completed by June 12—with a 25 percent reduction in the miles needed to redeem either award tickets or upgrades,” the airline said.

Turkish Airlines already offers flights to the capital Amman.
