Georgia Holds Talks with Turkish Airlines

(Tbilisi, May 14, 2003. Civil Georgia) – Chief of Georgian Civil Aviation Administration (CAA) Zurab Chankotadze visits Turkey and holds talks with the Turkish Airways company.

The Georgian authorities canceled the flight license to the Turkish Airlines, which before April 15 conducted three flights between Tbilisi and Istanbul in a week. Georgia explained the decision with unpaid taxes, inadequate legal basis and unsolved disputes with the Georgian flagship company Airzena.

In the phone interview with Civil Georgia Chief of the CAA Zurab Chankotadze said that the Georgian side offers to conduct two flights a week, leaving two flights for the Georgian flagship company Airzena.

In early April representatives of the Turkish airlines arrive in Tbilisi and held talks with the Georgian authorities. They rejected Georgia?s proposal to conduct only three flights and demand to resume three flights a week.

?At this time I hope we can reach the agreement,? Zurab Chankotadze said.
