Nov 26, 2008 (newstodate): A thaw in relations between Turkey and Armenia may open up for commercial flights between the two countries.
Turkey severed relations with Armenia in 1993 due to the conflict over Nagorno-Karabagh.
Lately, Armenian carrier Armavia has introduced charter fligths from Yerevan to Istanbul and Antalya, and the privately-owned Turkish charter carrier Atlasjet has operated a series of charter flights between Istanbul and Yerevan.
Turkish Airlines is now also reportedly mulling plans for introducing charter flights to Yerevan and has started the process of obtaining Armenia's permission to launch services.
