Launching as a scheduled carrier in 2005, Pegasus Airlines has spent more than two decades making air travel accessible to millions through its cost-effective and digital-first business model. Today, serving 158 destinations in 55 countries, it is also among the world’s most profitable airlines, operating one of the youngest, most fuel-efficient fleets globally. Pegasus Airlines’ significant order of 200 new aircraft, together with its recent agreement to acquire Czech Airlines and its subsidiary Smartwings, marks a new chapter in Pegasus Airlines’ international growth strategy.
This partnership will harness the strength of Chelsea FC’s global footprint and worldwide fanbase to showcase Pegasus Airlines as it continues its expansion. Together, the two organisations will collaborate across key international markets, delivering innovative campaigns and experiences for supporters and customers around the world.
Pegasus Airlines Chief Commercial Officer, Onur Dedeköylü, said: “We are proud to partner with Chelsea FC, one of the most recognised and followed teams in the world of sport, with a truly global fanbase that mirrors our own international reach. The United Kingdom is also an important market for us, with services to five destinations and further growth planned. This partnership brings together two brands driven by ambition, energy and connection, and we look forward to working with Chelsea FC to create special campaigns and meaningful experiences for supporters and travellers alike.”
Speaking on the partnership, Oliver Boden, Partnership Sales Director for Chelsea Football Club, added: “Pegasus Airlines’ progress in recent years speaks for itself, their vision to transform the aviation industry and unlock the possibility of travel to so many is inspiring. The expansion of their fleet underlines the scale of their aspirations. We are proud to partner with Pegasus at this exciting time, to support them in the next stage of their journey and build a unique partnership together.’
