When Istanbul Airport will become fully operational it goes without saying that THY will be very very dominant here. However, by April 7th TK will still not be very ready for the full scale pos. I'm not talking about the big TK Cargo Terminal that they need to build inside the Cargo City area; neither I'm talking about their CIP Lounges' readiness inside the Terminal. The brain of any airline is their Operations Center, that really handles many functions of the airline based in that airport and also the center that communicates with all the other facilities and authorities at that airport. Needless to say, this facility is loaded with tons of compu-ters and with a highly dedicated and complex network! TK is building its own dedicated Ops-Center in a totally separate and somewhat distant part of the complex and this building will never be ready and operational by April 7th. TK is now making use a small and temporary Ops-Center inside the Terminal and if they cannot move into their dedicated building, they will have to enlarge the temporary one and at a later date carry this Ops-Center to their own place. And they have to cross their fingers that nothing will go wrong during this re-location!...
