AJet is offering domestic and international flights in September 2026, including Dubai and Jeddah itineraries. The carrier operates from Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) and Ankara Esenboğa (ESB).
AJet’s official fare pages list Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen–Dubai on 8–10 September and Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen–Jeddah on 10 September. These are advertised itineraries; cached fares may no longer be available at booking and do not prove a flight has operated.
Is AJet Operating Right Now?
Yes — AJet is offering flights within Türkiye and internationally. A blanket suspension of all Gulf and Middle East routes is not supported by the current official listings.
Current operating status could not be independently confirmed for every Gulf destination. In particular, no AJet nonstop Istanbul–Kuwait or Istanbul–Bahrain schedule was returned by the Wego timetable check on 7 September; an empty result does not establish a suspension.
Which AJet Routes Are Operating?
AJet’s domestic and international destination listings include the routes below. A destination listing does not establish that every service is operating on schedule.

AJet’s domestic network connects Sabiha Gökçen and Esenboğa with cities across Türkiye. Listed destinations include:
Europe and Beyond
AJet’s international network includes Europe, North Africa, the Caucasus, Central Asia, and Northern Cyprus. Listed destinations include:

What Is the Status of AJet’s Gulf and Middle East Routes?
AJet’s current listings support selected Gulf and Middle East itineraries. The table distinguishes advertised services from routes whose current operation could not be verified.
| Country | Destinations | Status |
|---|---|---|
| UAE | Dubai (DXB), Sharjah (SHJ) | Dubai advertised for 8–10 September; Sharjah not independently verified |
| Saudi Arabia | Riyadh (RUH), Jeddah (JED), Dammam (DMM), Medina (MED) | Jeddah advertised for 10 September; other listed Saudi routes not independently verified |
| Kuwait | Kuwait (KWI) | No Istanbul nonstop timetable returned; suspension not established |
| Bahrain | Bahrain (BAH) | No Istanbul nonstop timetable returned; suspension not established |
| Iraq | Baghdad (BGW), Erbil (EBL), Sulaymaniyah (ISU) | Erbil–Berlin advertised for 12 September and Baghdad–London for 16 September; these may connect |
| Iran | All destinations | Current operating status not verified |

| Jordan | Amman (AMM) | Amman–Vienna itinerary advertised for 11 September; may connect |
AJet’s official pages advertise September travel from Dubai, Jeddah, Erbil, Baghdad, Beirut and Amman. This does not confirm every route, frequency or departure, and connecting itineraries must not be treated as nonstop services.
If Your AJet Flight Is Cancelled or Disrupted
If AJet cancels your flight, its conditions of carriage provide for alternative carriage, rerouting or a refund as applicable. Free voluntary changes and ticket-validity extensions depend on the terms applying to the ticket.
For a complete walkthrough of your rights, rebooking steps, and refund timelines, see our dedicated AJet Flight Cancellation guide. Under Turkish passenger-rights rules, care can include meals and refreshments appropriate to the wait, and accommodation and transfers where an overnight stay is necessary; eligibility depends on the disruption.

Flight Resumption and What’s Coming Next
Dubai and Jeddah are already advertised for September travel. A single regionwide resumption date would therefore be misleading.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is AJet operating flights right now?
Yes. AJet offers domestic and international itineraries, including Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen–Dubai and Jeddah for September. Individual flight operation and seats require date-specific confirmation.
Which AJet routes are still suspended?
A blanket Gulf suspension is not supported. Dubai and Jeddah are advertised for September. Current operation on Kuwait, Bahrain and Iran routes was not independently verified in this review.
What should I do if my AJet flight is cancelled?
Request the applicable alternative or refund. If AJet cancels your flight, alternative carriage, rerouting or a refund may apply under its conditions. Voluntary changes and validity extensions depend on ticket terms. See our full AJet cancellation guide for step-by-step instructions and current deadlines.

Scheduled service is not a safety guarantee. AJet offers itineraries through Sabiha Gökçen, but operational availability alone does not establish the safety of every route. For more detail, see our guide on transiting through Istanbul.

Dubai itineraries are already advertised. AJet lists Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen–Dubai for 8–10 September; current operation of every Gulf route has not been confirmed. Check AJet’s flight tracker on Wego for the latest schedule updates.
