Istanbul Airport delayed its reopening on Tuesday as Turkey’s largest city woke up to a massive snowfall, which paralyzed traffic and disrupted services.
This airport has the most traffic in Europe.
A snowstorm has closed Istanbul Airport for the first time since it took over Ataturk Airport, as the new hub of Turkish Airlines in 2019.
Airport officials announced on Tuesday that flights would not resume until 1 p.m.
In the city of 16 million people little turnover has been seen and food delivery companies have not worked.
The governor’s office has called on residents who have abandoned their cars on highways to go and pick them up.
“Please, let us get our cars,” said Governor Ali Yerlikaya.
The closure of Istanbul Airport has affected flights to the Middle East, Africa, Asia and Europe.
Istanbul Airport served more than 37 million passengers last year, despite obstacles caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
