Turkish Airlines has resumed flights to Siirt in southeastern Türkiye on 12 September 2026 almost 11 months after the airport closed for major construction and renovation works on 20 October 2025. The reopening was eight months later than originally intended as the airport had been scheduled to reopen on 18 January 2026 but the renovation programme and associated testing inspection and calibration work took longer than planned.
Construction comprised a new terminal upgrades to the control tower and technical facilities perimeter security improvements and testing of electronic and navigation systems. Turkish Airlines serves Siirt from Istanbul Airport and from Ankara Esenboga the latter operated under a wet lease for subsidiary AJet using A319-100s on both routes.
