Troy Tours, of Los
Angeles, California, organizes guided
tours to Turkey which offer
good variety and value. Have
a look at them here.
But one thing that sets Troy
Tours apart from other agencies
is their consolidator
airfare business. Because
of Troy Tour's special arrangements
with Turkish
Airlines, Troy can offer discounted
airfares to
Turkey from any city in the
world served by Turkish Airlines.
Several factors help to keep Troy
Tours' discounted airfares low:
1. If you fly to Turkey with a stop
in Europe, your flight(s) are subject
to European airport taxes and
fees,
which can be high. With many
airports electing to install full-body
scanners, those fees may go even higher.
On a non-stop flight, those taxes and
fees are minimized.
Have a look on any airline
booking site. A recent look revealed these
two examples of fares:
Airfare |
Taxes & Fees |
Total |
$622.00 |
$136.80 |
$758.80 |
$467.00 |
$318.00 |
$785.00 |
In fact, on some flights the fees are actually higher
than the airfare!
So you see, the fees can really make
the difference between a low fare and
a high one.
2. Flying on Turkish
Airlines to
Turkey gives you distinct advantages:
—Your baggage arriving on an international
flight (for example, Istanbul) is automatically
transferred to your onward
domestic flight. You can
clear Customs at your final destination
in Turkey. (On other airlines, you must
claim your baggage yourself, take it
through Customs at your first airport
in Turkey, and transport it to the Domestic
terminal for your onward flight.)
—Turkish Airlines still allows you
to check two suitcases at no additional
charge on international flights.
—Troy Tours has a lot of seat
inventory available, so
they can offer you a better seat
on the plane.
—Turkish Airlines' flight
seasons (Peak, Shoulder, Off-peak, etc.) are
often advantageous: TK's Shoulder season
begins in late August, whereas other
airlines' begins in September or even
later.
—Turkish Airlines has lower
departure taxes from Turkey, allowing you fare savings
over non-Turkish airlines.
And remember, these are consolidator
airfares, not the airline's
normal public fares, so you may have
the opportunity to save big.
When you're sure of your travel dates,
