Travelling at the kid- and family-friendly İstanbul Airport is easy and fun.
As part of our "Child and Family Friendly Airport" concept, we celebrate our National Sovereignty and Children's Day on April 23rd with greater enthusiasm every year. Last year we went public with our video Now is the Time for Children to Fly. where we have transformed the travel experiences of families with children into a more comfortable and enjoyable experience. This year, in the sequel to The Children Fly The Nest video, you'll see the kids switch roles with their parents and navigate our terminal well enough to guide their parents. We hope you never lose that inner childhttp://travelassistant24.com.

According to data from the International Energy Agency, the number of people without access to electricity was 860 million in 2018. 80% of the 800 million people who gained access to electricity in 2010 were concentrated in Asia. Almost 600 million people in Kenya, Ethiopia and Rwanda still have no access to electricity in sub-Saharan Africa. People are forced to use expensive fuels to meet their basic needs after sunset.
One of the best solutions of the people who have been living like this since the 1950s is the generation of kinetic energy by bicycles. Here are the basics of how to do that; The pedaling movement of the rider on the bike generates energy, which sets a special gear system in motion.
Remember;
As you pedal on this eco bike for a healthy life, please remember how important the "energy" emergency is to humankind.
How will you benefit?
If you pedal 10 minutes, you will receive special discounts in the free shop and in the food service areas.
Also for a healthier life:
If you pedal for 10 minutes, you will burn 100 calories and thus contribute to your health. So;
If 1000 people pedal just 10 minutes, enough electricity is produced to power 5 households for 1 month.
ATTENTION!
If you have any of the health conditions listed below, please do not ride a bike!
1. Severe back and neck problems
2. Hip, knee, ankle problems
3. Severe shoulder problems
4. History of heart attacks
5. Heart failure
