Great news! Recently, according to the Hürriyet Daily News, Istanbul Airport has developed special products and services for Chinese citizens, becoming the first terminal in the world to fully implement the "China-Friendly Airport" project. It has been awarded the "China-Friendly Airport" certificate by the Consulate General of the People's Republic of China in Istanbul. Starting today, Istanbul Airport will provide comprehensive Chinese-language services for passengers arriving from China.


The World's First "China-Friendly Airport" Is Born: What Can We Expect?

Currently, Istanbul Airport has taken a series of concrete measures to improve the travel experience for Chinese tourists, such as:

• Launching flights from the same area to China, equipped with flight information screens in Chinese, and translating ticketing screen information into Chinese;

• Launching an official Istanbul Airport account on social media platforms used by Chinese travelers, such as Weibo and WeChat, and providing a Chinese version of the Istanbul Airport mobile app;

• Providing hot water dispensers in arrival and departure areas, setting up Chinese "Welcome" signs on passenger boarding bridges, and arranging Chinese-speaking staff wearing special uniforms;

• Providing Chinese-language broadcasts inside aircraft departing from China, and installing Chinese signage in almost every area of the airport; every detail is considered for Chinese travelers...

The World's First "China-Friendly Airport" Is Born: What Can We Expect?

Kadri Samsunlu, CEO of the Istanbul Airport operator, stated at the award ceremony: "Our goal is to make Chinese travelers feel 'at home' through the 'passenger-friendly' applications implemented at the airport. About 450,000 Chinese tourists visited Turkey last year. We initially expected 600,000 Chinese to travel to Turkey this year, and I believe we can achieve the goal of 1 million Chinese tourists in the future."

Undoubtedly, as an international hub, Istanbul Airport deserves the "China-Friendly Airport" title for the measures it has taken to improve the travel experience for Chinese tourists. This project not only improves the experience for Chinese passengers during their stay at the airport but may also inspire more Chinese tourists to visit Turkey and attract more investors to invest in Turkey!

In fact, as the global pandemic situation gradually improves, Turkey has previously lifted domestic and international travel restrictions. To ensure the health and safety of tourists, it has begun implementing the "Safe Tourism Certification Program." At the same time, Turkish Airlines has resumed flights between Istanbul Airport and mainland China... All signs indicate that romantic Turkey has opened its arms to welcome tourists and investors from all over the world!


Turkey is a major geographical, demographic, and economic power in Eurasia among countries currently offering investment-based citizenship programs, and it is also a major G20 country offering a low-cost investment-based citizenship program! Turkish real estate has significant development potential, and the launch of the Turkey Citizenship by Investment Program provides global investors with an excellent opportunity for immigration investment and creating an overseas home!


Currently, by participating in the Turkey property purchase program, investors gain not only real estate but also potential added value—Turkey is an EU candidate country, and once it successfully joins the EU, Turkish real estate will be upgraded to EU-member-state real estate! At the same time, after obtaining a Turkish passport, one can settle in the UK through the "UK Turkish Businessperson Visa" and use the "US E-2 Visa" as a stepping stone to the United States—achieving multiple goals at once!
