Turkish Cargo has added Quito (UIO), the capital city of Ecuador, to the destinations with direct cargo flights.
Being one of the most notable flower producers of the world, Quito also hosts developed textile, metal and agricultural industries, and its most significant exports include coffee, sugar, cacao, rise, bananas and palm oil.
The first one of the Quito flights, to be operated for 2 days a week by the Boeing 777F freighters of Turkish Cargo, is planned to be operated on the Istanbul – New York – Quito – Curaçao - Maastricht (ISL-JFK-UIO-CUR-MST) line on 7th of March.
