Kerem Sidar, representing ALTAV in Herning, stated that agencies are conducting on-site sales at the fairground, while Mehmet Nedanlı, who is promoting Alanya in Prague, expressed that the closest estimates can be made through last-minute sales in this market, and as a general forecast, last year's reservation figures will be repeated, stating, “On the other hand, officials from companies transporting the majority of passengers to Alanya are very closely interested in Gazipaşa Airport. Agencies want to benefit from the advantages of this airport, which increases its flight traffic every period.” Nedanlı also mentioned that the Ambassador of the Czech Republic visited the Alanya stand with a large delegation and received detailed information about Alanya from him.
