Istanbul’s Ataturk International Airport saw a record-breaking 1,424 flights take-off and land three days after last week’s terror attack, Transport Minister Ahmet Arslan said Monday.
Speaking at the airport, Arslan said the previous record was exceeded on Friday following Tuesday’s gun and bomb attack that killed 45 people and wounded more than 200.
“It was the record of Ataturk Airport,” he said. “Again yesterday and today we had air traffic of around 1,380 planes.”
