О компании Pegasus
Pegasus Airlines (Pegasus Hava Tasimaciligi) is a Turkish low-cost carrier founded in 1990 and based at Istanbul Sabiha Gokcen Airport (SAW) on the Asian side of Istanbul. Pegasus is the second largest airline in Turkey behind Turkish Airlines and operates a fleet of roughly 100 Airbus A320 and A321neo aircraft, plus a small number of Boeing 737s, on more than 130 destinations across Turkey, Europe, the Middle East, the Caucasus, and Central Asia. Pegasus does not belong to a global alliance, although it has a longstanding partnership and codeshare relationship with the UK low-cost carrier Jet2 and a few regional operators. The airline's value proposition for Georgian travelers is simple: cheaper non-stop fares to Istanbul than the full-service alternative, plus very competitive connecting fares to popular Turkish leisure destinations such as Antalya (AYT) and onward to European cities like London Stansted (STN), Berlin (BER), Paris Orly (ORY), Rome (FCO), and Amsterdam (AMS). From Tbilisi (TBS) Pegasus flies daily to Istanbul Sabiha Gokcen, and seasonal direct service to Antalya is added during the Turkish Riviera summer. The carrier does not operate from Kutaisi or Batumi as a regular schedule. Connecting passengers should be aware that Sabiha Gokcen and Istanbul Airport (IST) are on opposite sides of the city; a Pegasus ticket from Tbilisi via Sabiha Gokcen onward to Antalya or Berlin keeps everything at SAW and is a single boarding pass itinerary, but a mixed itinerary that requires a transfer between SAW and IST is not advisable on a self-connected ticket because Pegasus protects only Pegasus-issued connections. The fare model is unbundled and follows the European low-cost pattern. Base fares include a small personal item that fits under the seat. A larger cabin bag or checked baggage is paid: most travelers from Georgia booking via FlyGE will add a 20 kg or 30 kg checked bag at booking, which is several times cheaper than at the SAW airport counter. Higher fare bundles such as Advantage and Flex include bag, seat, and meal as a package and reduce the chance of surprise add-on costs. Onboard food and drink are paid; pre-ordering hot meals during booking is meaningfully cheaper than buying on the plane. The mobile app handles online check-in starting 48 hours before departure and produces a mobile boarding pass that is accepted at Tbilisi International. Pegasus runs frequent flash sales, especially in late autumn and January for spring and summer travel, and Georgian travelers who can be flexible on dates frequently find Tbilisi to Istanbul round trips well under 200 USD. FlyGE displays Pegasus alongside Turkish Airlines and Georgian Airways on every Tbilisi to Istanbul search, which makes the cost-versus-airport tradeoff clear: Sabiha Gokcen is farther from central Istanbul than the main IST airport, so factor in transfer time and ground transport cost if Istanbul is the final destination rather than a transit point. Pegasus also operates Antalya as a focus city and runs significant direct flights between Antalya and European cities, which means Georgian travelers can sometimes find a Tbilisi via Sabiha Gokcen to Antalya itinerary that is cheaper than a direct seasonal flight to Antalya during the Black Sea summer peak. BolBol is the carrier's frequent flyer program; points earn at a slower rate than full-service alliance programs but can be redeemed against base fares and add-ons. BolBol points do not credit to or from Star Alliance, Oneworld, or SkyTeam, so a Georgian traveler who flies primarily on Turkish Airlines or Lufthansa cannot consolidate Pegasus segments into a Miles&Smiles or Miles+More account. Codeshare reach is limited: the most useful partnership for Georgian travelers is the Jet2 connection at selected European hubs, which lets a Pegasus ticket cover an onward UK regional flight, though Jet2 itself is also a low-cost carrier without alliance ties. Pegasus does not offer through-tickets onto Lufthansa, KLM, or other full-service carriers, so multi-airline trips combining Pegasus with a Western European legacy carrier require two separate bookings. Recent route announcements for Georgian travelers include increased Tbilisi to Istanbul Sabiha frequency for the 2025-26 winter schedule, added seasonal Tbilisi to Antalya capacity for summer 2026, and ongoing fleet expansion with additional Airbus A321neo deliveries that allow Pegasus to add longer-range European routes from Sabiha Gokcen. Pegasus has also launched several new SAW to UK and Scandinavian routes that benefit Georgian travelers using Sabiha as a connection point. Common service issues to plan for include very strict baggage enforcement at Sabiha Gokcen gates; Pegasus is known to weigh and measure carry-on bags before boarding, and an over-sized or over-weight cabin bag can attract a gate fee around 50 to 70 euros that often exceeds the cost of pre-buying a checked bag at booking. Georgian travelers should weigh the carry-on at home and stay under the 8 kg limit. Pegasus runs a higher operational change rate than Turkish Airlines, with occasional same-day schedule adjustments tied to peak Sabiha traffic; checking the airline app for changes in the 24 hours before departure is recommended. Refund handling on canceled Pegasus flights generally meets minimum European-style requirements but is slower than Turkish Airlines for cash refunds, with credit shells or vouchers offered faster than direct refunds. Compared to Turkish Airlines on the Tbilisi to Istanbul route, Pegasus typically prices 20 to 30 percent lower for the published base fare but requires careful comparison of total cost once a checked bag and seat assignment are added; for travelers with one carry-on under 8 kg, Pegasus is the cheapest practical option to Istanbul. Compared to Wizz Air for onward European travel from Istanbul Sabiha to Berlin, Paris, or Rome, Pegasus often beats Wizz on base fare for the SAW connection itinerary but Wizz from KUT direct is generally faster end-to-end if the Georgian traveler can drive or train to Kutaisi. Against Georgian Airways for the direct Tbilisi to Istanbul corridor, Pegasus is usually cheaper but Georgian Airways uses the main IST airport closer to central Istanbul, so if the city itself is the destination rather than a transit point, Georgian Airways is often the better value once airport transfer cost and time are included.
