Supplier of the Week: Turkish Airlines

Turkish Airlines is back in the sky, and for that they are our Supplier of the Week. Flying to 302 destinations in 120 countries (including, of course, Ireland), the national carrier of Turkey is offering more flexibility than ever as it recognises that these are very difficult times.

Double Daily from Dublin

Voted European Airline of the year for the past 6 consecutive years (2011-2016) and currently ranked 4th best globally, in non-pandemic times Turkish Airlines operates twice daily from Dublin’s Terminal 1. While that schedule was seriously affected by Covid, last week the airline announced that from June 14 it was upping its summer schedule to 10 flights a week:

SUMMER SCHEDULE STARING FROM THE 14TH OF JUNE

Istanbul City Tour & Hotel Accommodation 

Passengers who arrive at Istanbul Ataturk Airport and are due to take a connecting flight on the same day can now choose between spending their waiting time relaxing in complementary hotel accommodation and using our new service to enjoy a magnificent tour of Istanbul.

 To take the advantage of the Istanbul tour, all connecting flight tickets must belong to Turkish Airlines international flights and must be the first connection between those destinations.

 In addition minimum waiting time for business class passengers has to be 9 hours or more and for economy passengers has to be at least 13 hours. If you meet those requirements, the Turkish Airlines Hotel Desk in Istanbul Airport will arrange the Istanbul tour for you.

COVID-19 Measures during Boarding & Deboarding

Passengers can maintain social distance from other passengers and ensure safe access to their airplane by paying attention to this tape.
