The order comes just a few weeks after the airline signed its biggest ever order with Airbus for up to 117 A320 Family aircraft (25 A321ceo, four A320neo, 53 A321neo and options for 35 additional A321neo aircraft).

Boeing has stated that it looks forward to working with Turkish Airlines to finalise the order.
