As we continue to highlight the incredible individuals who shape the SunExpress family, today I would like to introduce you to Afra, one of the pioneers in our technical department.

I first met Afra during one of my line maintenance visits, where she guided my guests and me through a comprehensive briefing about our aircraft. Her professionalism and passion for her work were immediately evident. Not only did she answer our technical questions about our fleet with great expertise, but she also shared the inspiring story of how she navigated her career path in this challenging and rewarding field.
Since that day, I have had the pleasure of visiting the apron several times under her guidance. During our last visit, one of our guests, a talented photographer, captured this moment, perfectly reflecting Afra’s dedication to her craft. Her journey is a true testament to what can be achieved with determination and skill.
For anyone looking to pursue an extraordinary career path but seeking the right role models to look up to, Afra’s journey is incredibly inspiring. We take great pride in all our colleagues at SunExpress who turn their passion for aviation into a meaningful career.
