  About Pegasus Airlines

Pegasus Airlines is a private low-cost Turkish airline with its headquarters in the Kurtköy region of Pendik, Istanbul. The airline's base though, is in several Turkish airports namely Adana Airport, Antalya Airport, Ankara Esenbo?a Airport, Adnan Menderes Airport, and Ercan Airport. The airline came into existence in 1989 when two business ventures, Net and Silkar, entered a partnership with Irish-airline company Aer Lingus. Together they formed Pegasus Airlines and operations of the new airline commenced in 1990. The airline's first fleet comprises of two Boeing 737-400s which later expanded to accommodate more Airbus variants. The airline's name has been derived from the relevance of Pegasus, a winged horse that is sired by the Greek god of the sea. Months after the launch of Pegasus Airlines, Iraq stormed Kuwait with an invasion which led to a halt in the operations of the airline and resulted in a serious setback on Turkish tourism.

Further, this also affected Pegasus' operations as the airline had to shut shop for a few months until the political scenario returned to normal.

In 1992, things started looking good for Turkey's tourism and further enhanced the demand for Pegasus Airlines. The airline acquired a third Boeing 737-400 to join its fleet. It also leased two Airbus A320s to meet the demand brought in by summer tourists. After two successful years with positive reception for the airline, Aer Lingus and Net opted to sell off their shares in Pegasus Airlines. Following the exit of the two companies in 1994, an Istanbul-based enterprise called Yapi Kredibank, acquired all the shares of the airline, turning Pegasus Airlines into a Turkish company. In 1997, the airline placed an order for one Boeing 737-400 along with one Boeing 737-800 from the aircraft-manufacturing company. Since the change in ownership, Pegasus Airlines became the first Turkish airline to have placed orders for the Boeing 737 Next Generation. A lease agreement was also signed to receive ten more Boeing 737-800s from the International Lease Finance Corporation. In 2005, Pegasus Airlines received another investor in ESAS Holdings with Ali Sabanci as the new chairman.

After Turkish Airlines, Air Pegasus is the second-largest airline in the country which started transforming its fleet from Boeing to Airbus. In fact, Pegasus Airlines became the first Turkish airline to become a customer for Airbus as they ordered some A320neo. As part of its expansion strategies, the airline also started investing in other airlines. In 2012, the airline purchased 49 per cent of shares of Air Manas, a low-cost airline based out of Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan. Pegasus Airlines also put up their shares in the stock market, which was traded at Borsa Istanbul.

Meanwhile, they are halfway with their plan to replace the Boeing 737-800s from their fleet and replace it with the Airbus A320 series. In fact, along with the Airbus A320neo, the airline is also expected to receive 38 Airbus A321neo, orders for which have been placed by the airline already. Interestingly the airline's operations commenced with two Boeing 737-400s inaugurating the inception of Pegasus Airlines. In the past, Pegasus Airlines did have Boeing 737-300 and Beijing 737-400.
