Join UP! Baltic expands charter flight network from Palanga Airport with another new destination: Antalya

Tour operator Join UP! Baltic announces a new charter flight route from Palanga Airport to Antalya, Turkey for the most demanded travel periods in Spring and Autumn of 2025. It is the second historic destination Join UP! Baltic is adding from Palanga, following the recent unveiling of historically first charter flights to Egypt, Sharm El Sheikh from September 2025 throughout the Winter season. 

Antalya in Turkey is one of the most popular holiday spots for Baltic vacationers known for its stunning beaches, rich cultural heritage, and renowned hospitality. Flights to Antalya will be available every Monday from April 21 to May 5, and again from September 22 to October 27, 2025. 

Sabina Saikovskaja, CEO of Join UP! Baltic, commented: “By launching the Antalya route from Palanga, we are responding to the growing demand for access to one of the most sought-after destinations, Turkey, in the region. In previous seasons, we have had to add extra flights from the Baltic capital cities to Antalya due to high demand, and this new route is a direct response to the needs of our travelers. This move is also in line with our strategy to provide more convenient and accessible travel options for the broader Baltic market.”

S.Saikovskaja emphasizes that Join UP! Baltic’s strategic long-term plans focus on further expansion within the Baltic States, providing travelers with diverse and convenient travel options and helping them discover new destinations closer to home.

„The new charter flights from Palanga Airport to Turkey, beginning next spring, are an exciting development for travelers in Western Lithuania and highlights the airport’s growing importance as a hub for holiday travel in the region. This addition broadens the range of holiday destinations, especially following the recent announcement of charter flights to Egypt, which will commence next autumn. The strong growth in Palanga Airport’s holiday travel offerings is a trend we view positively, as it enhances both accessibility and convenience for our passengers,“ said Tomas Zitikis Head of Route Development Department at Lithuanian Airports.
