Pegasus Airlines, a Turkey-based low-cost airline, is set to launch flights between Izmir and Tbilisi starting this May, the Georgian Civil Aviation Agency said on Wednesday.

Starting with the current summer season, the airline will carry passengers on a regular Izmir-Tbilisi-Izmir direction.

The twice-a-week flights will be offered on Wednesdays and Sundays, between May 4-October 29.

The Georgian agency granted the airline the permit to operate in the direction on February 22.
