(Reuters) – Flag carrier Turkish Airlines is continuing feasibility work on acquiring either the Airbus A380 or Boeing 747-8, Chairman Hamdi Topcu said on Thursday.

Turkish Airlines, Europe’s fourth-biggest airline, is also continuing talks with Germany’s Lufthansa on whether the two companies can form “synergies,” Topcu said in an interview with CNN Turk that was broadcast live.
