Turkish
Airlines (Türk Hava
Yollari; codes: TK, THY) is
a good, competent national
airline with worldwide routes and
domestic connections to every important
Turkish city. THY has non-stop flights from New
York, Miami, Chicago and
most major European cities to Istanbul.
THY's
aircraft are quite new and
its safety record is quite
good. Terminal and in-flight
service is generally of a good European
standard, security is better
than most, and everybody speaks English. Flights & fares
Most
other major European national airlines
(Alitalia, Air France, British
Airways, KLM, Lufthansa, Olympic,
SAS, etc) also have flights to Istanbul.
Within
Turkey, THY runs domestic flights
from its Istanbul and Ankara hubs
to every important city, town and
tourist resort in the country (map:
Regions & Major Cities)
including Antalya, Bodrum , Dalaman, Izmir and Kayseri (for Cappadocia).
Its
competitors, Onur
Air, AtlasJet,
IZair,
Pegasus Airlines, and Sun
Express, fly many of
the same routes for lower fares.
You can make your reservations via
any of my recommended
travel agencies in Turkey. It's often easier than fighting
with the airlines' websites, and you
may save money. More...
