FlyOne Armenia, a low-cost Armenian airline, has been prohibited from using Turkish airspace without warning, according to the company's board chairman, Aram
Ananyan. He said that the Turkish aviation authorities had "cancelled the permission previously granted" without "any visible grounds" for the move, causing "uncomfortable" circumstances for passengers.
FlyOne Armenia launched in December 2021 and offered flights to 14 destinations in eight European and Middle Eastern countries. Ankara and Yerevan have not had diplomatic or commercial relations since the 1990s, and there are still disagreements over the alleged genocide of 1.5 million people by the Ottoman Empire in 1915.
