Frequently Asked Questions

SunExpress is not a direct member of an airline alliance but is a joint venture between Lufthansa and Turkish Airlines. Through these parent companies, SunExpress connects with both the Star Alliance and SkyTeam networks, and passengers can earn miles on Lufthansa Miles & More and Turkish Airlines Miles&Smiles.
Where are SunExpress main base airports?
SunExpress' primary base is Antalya Airport (AYT) on Turkey's Mediterranean coast. The airline also operates significantly from Izmir Adnan Menderes (ADB) and connects Turkish holiday destinations with European cities, particularly in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.
What cabin classes does SunExpress offer?
SunExpress operates a single Economy class cabin on its all-Boeing 737 fleet. The airline offers three fare bundles: SunEco, SunClassic, and SunPremium. Passengers can book extra legroom seats in the front rows and exit rows for additional comfort.
What is SunExpress checked baggage allowance?
SunExpress SunEco fares include only a personal bag. SunClassic includes one checked bag of 20 kg, and SunPremium includes one bag of 25 kg. Additional baggage can be pre-purchased online at discounted rates compared to airport counter prices.
What is unique about SunExpress's parent company structure?
SunExpress is uniquely co-owned by two competing airline groups: Lufthansa (Star Alliance) and Turkish Airlines (independently positioned between alliances). This joint venture, founded in 1989, focuses on connecting Turkish tourism destinations with European source markets, particularly German-speaking countries, making it a major carrier in the Europe-Turkey leisure market.
