Akgünler Denizcilik Resumes Sailings Starting Tomorrow
According to the Ministry's statement, a significant step has been taken to reorganize sea transportation. Akgünler Denizcilik has decided to restart its maritime services between the TRNC and Turkey from tomorrow, following a new route to be determined by the Coast Guard Command. This development is particularly important for passengers planning to travel on busy routes such as Taşucu - Kyrenia and Kyrenia - Taşucu. Passengers are advised to follow Akgünler Denizcilik's official channels directly for updated sailing times and ticket information.
Filo Denizcilik Services Suspended
Unfortunately, as part of the measures taken after the ship accident off Kyrenia, which resulted in loss of life, all services by Filo Denizcilik have been suspended until further notice. This situation requires passengers with travel plans involving Filo Denizcilik to consider alternative transportation methods. The Ministry stated that this decision was made to ensure passenger safety. To avoid inconvenience, passengers are strongly advised to contact the relevant operators or check current announcements before their travels.
Additional Measures in Air Travel: Special Flights from Pegasus for September 1st
