The Batmobile travelled from Europe to Asia by crossing the Bosphorus Strait via the
new Yavuz Sultan Selim Bridge which officially opens to the public this summer. This
marked the longest-ever ride for the one-of-a-kind vehicle.
"The ride across the newest Bosphorus bridge is symbolic of how the Batmobile unites
people worldwide as a pop culture icon, how Istanbul is the one and only city connecting
two continents, and how Turkish Airlines bridges passengers globally to 113 countries and
more than 287 destinations" said M. Ilker AycI, Turkish Airlines' Board Chairman.
"This is an opportunity for us to introduce our precious city, Istanbul and our newest
bridge to the world. The Batmobile is one of the most symbolic movie icons of all time,
and has now connected the world with Istanbul," added M. Ilker AycI.
Turkish Airlines' Istanbul hub is centrally located at the crossroads of Europe and
Asia, serving as a geographically attractive and natural transfer point for international
routes. The Istanbul hub provides Americans in eight cities, Boston, New York, Washington,
Chicago, Houston, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Miami, a one-stop connection to more than
287 destinations.
