Turkey is preparing to sell a further stake in Turkish Airlines, cashing in after a period in which the flag carrier has expanded rapidly by using Istanbul as a hub for transit between Europe and the Middle East.

The privatisation agency will hear bids to advise on the sale on Tuesday, according to a banking source. The agency last month said shortlisted bidders included consortia led by Citigroup, Credit Agricole, Goldman Sachs, HSBC, UniCredit and UBS.
