Turkish Cargo has added Brussels, the capital city of Belgium, as a destination for direct scheduled cargo flights.

The opening of the new cargo destination was celebrated with a spectacular event attended by all the agencies operating in Brussels. In the first stage, the weekly frequencies with A310F cargo freighter will be operated Saturdays-only.
