What a great review. And so nice to see so many people back in airports and on the plane. We will be one of them in August. The world is on the move again. Yay
What a nice video you offered! You know what I want to see! Because I am going to fly to Istanbul in September by Turkish Airlines business class, I really enjoy waiting this video. Thank you!
Wonderful review!!! Thank you! I'm going on Turkish Airlines next month (12 hour flight)---you just increased my excitement and I didn't think that was possible!!
Thank you for your review. I'll be flying Turkish soon and wanted to see the current lounge, amenity kit and catering. I always choose TK for west coast USA to Europe. Thanks again.
Hi Viman. Excellent video. I'm glad the Chef in the Business Class is back. We're getting ready for our flight to Istanbul in a few months. It will be the same plane B777-300ER. That will be a very long walk without the cart. Thanks.
Excellent video; your presentation was most interesting and stylish. I am transiting business class internationally through Istanbul Aurport over the summer. How and where did you retain the services of the buggy cart? Thank you very much!
Thank you Michael! The buggy service counter is near the escalator at the exit of the lounge. You exit the lounge, take the escalator down one level and walk maybe 10 steps ahead to reach the counter.
Great review! I'm flying a similar flight next week (sin-ist) on business. It's the same aircraft. Can you keep the amenities kit with you after you land? I have an onwards flight to Europe.
I'm going to Istanbul in June. I guess I stick to Qatar Q suite business class. Seems Turkish Airlines has no intention to change the seat configuration. Thanks for the wonderful flight review. It helps alot. Cheers and Selamat Datang.
Летали из Петербурга (Россия) в Канкун))) Самолеты старые и раздолбанные)))) Надо отдать должное что в бизнес-классе кормили очень хорошо! И обслуживание на самом высоком уровне! Новый аэропорт - прекрасен! Дубай отдыхает))))) В общем турки - молодцы!
Thank you. SOP to travel to Istanbul you mean? You need to be fully vaccinated and/or need to have a negative PCR test result. This depends on your origin country. The latest guidance is available on their website.
Thanks for the video. Would you recommend an aisle seat in the middle, or on the sides? Traveling solo, I am wondering which would leave you less likely to have people disturbing you during the night. You got lucky that the seat next to you was empty:)
The aisle seat in the middle row would be better as the middle seat pax has two options to reach the aisle. There is also a higher chance of the middle seat being empty if the flight is not full. A window seat pax on the other hand has no other choice but to disturb the aisle pax if they need to reach the aisle.
One question, please. I am Haitian. I live in Turkey. I need to go to the Dominican Republic. I want to know if I can make a stopover in Madrid without a transit visa.
Hi Viman! Thanks for sharing. I like it. By the way I need your suggestion in regards for upgrading my economy flight from Miami to Istanbul with Turkish Airlines. Is the price are the same when upgrading through online and over the counter? Is there any differences? Thanks. 🙏😀
Are you planning to upgrade with miles or cash? Mileage upgrade requirements should be the same. Cash upgrades might differ online and over the counter.

How to get airlines lounges access for economy Class passenger, how economy Class passenger gets free airline lounge access or With a little money....... Love it from Pakistan 🇵🇰
Thank you! There is no "completely free" way to get lounge access while flying Economy. You need to be either an Elite member (Gold/Platinum level) of an airline/alliance's Frequent Flyer program or have a credit card which allows lounge access at certain airports. Some airlines like Turkish also allows Economy Class passengers to buy a one-time lounge access along with their ticket on domestic flights. Hope this helps!
After the bad experience I had with them two years ago(airlines customer service ) I sworn I will not fly with them again unless it’s absolutely necessary.
u good that ur not in that dreadful middle seat in the middle section. Insane that airlines have 2-3-2 config on a wide-body business class these days. The same goes for EK - simply unacceptable.
Too bad that the business class configuration is 2-3-2. You basically have to jump on other passengers to get to the aisle if they are using the seat flat.
For non Turkish passengers Soon as they know you speak in Turkish or you are Turkish descent that's where the service ends. So disappointed .... the price I paid for 13 hr flght and the service I and my Family got so disappointed...
Useless review, the most important aspect of business class is sleeping comfort and you showed nothing, seats should be possible to be completely flattened so you can completely lie down and sleep.
Imagine you are placed in the middle seat at the middle row, with one that drinks all night on the left and a screaming child on the right! It is all about the hard product! Turkish and emirates has the worst business class seats on their 777. No privacy ! You were lucky that the next seat is empty. It is not worth the 4 to 5 times price of economy. On the otherhand Turkish has better seats in the economy, only 3 3 3 instead of the normal 777 3 4 3 seatings.
Well, I would join the person on the left and drink all night haha... but yeah, middle seat in Business Class is inexcusable in this day and age. Turkish really needs to update the J class product on its 777s/A330s.
Glad to see that Turkish has brought back its normal business class service.
Before how ?

Thank you so much for wonderful video.Turkish Airlines is always my choice.I can not waith to go back to my beautiful Kuala Lumpur 🙏😍
Thank you so much!
great video.. love that you included the lounge experience of biz class too which a lot of channels miss
Yes, the lounge is an integral part of the entire Biz Class experience. Wish I had visited it during daylight hours.
Thank you for your review. I'll be flying Turkish soon and wanted to see the current lounge, amenity kit and catering. I always choose TK for west coast USA to Europe. Thanks again.

Thank you for the very interesting flight review about this fantastic airline!

It's the first time I have seen a real Chef aboard and Airline.And his food looks yummy.I wish I was there to taste it!👍
Indeed. It’s a great touch by Turkish Airlines. The food onboard is not really prepared by the chef but they are involved in presentation and plating.
Excellent video. Had a feeling that I was travelling in person. 👍👍👍
Good
Great Video 👍
this was a great video, i love the elevator music in the background. You did great
Thank you!
Very good video!
Thank you!
Nice flight review. I like the table setting that Turkish use. Hoping to review one of their flights myself soon.

Great review! I'm flying a similar flight next week (sin-ist) on business. It's the same aircraft. Can you keep the amenities kit with you after you land? I have an onwards flight to Europe.
Yes, you can keep the amenity kit with you. The one on Turkish is quite nice actually.

Yes, Turkish needs to update its J product on the 777/A330 asap. The 787/A350 J product is so much better

Hi, great video. Would like to ask what are the sop traveling on Turkish Airline doing to Istanbul?
Thank you. SOP to travel to Istanbul you mean? You need to be fully vaccinated and/or need to have a negative PCR test result. This depends on your origin country. The latest guidance is available on their website.
Wonderful review! Will be flying 9 hours in late October! May I ask are the earphones are complimentary? Are they used and re-sanitized?
Thank you! Yes, the headphones are reusable and are sanitized after the flight. They offer Denon noise cancelling headphones in Business Class
nice review, how much was the price for the flight?
İstanbul 👍💐
Did you get fast track through immigration in Kulalumpur upon arrival when travelling in TK Biz?
Yes I did

One question, please. I am Haitian. I live in Turkey. I need to go to the Dominican Republic. I want to know if I can make a stopover in Madrid without a transit visa.
Hello first I would say thanks for this video I have question does wine has extra cost?or it’s free to get in business class?
Hello. There is no extra cost for the wine.
Well, Does this airline have any console?
Are the foods in business class lounges are FREE for business class passengers?
Yes all food and drinks in the lounge are free for business class passengers
How much the ticket price?
Definitely agree with your comment on 2-3-2. The Oman Air system of staggered pods is far superior.
Absolutely. Turkish 787-9/A350s have a much superior product.
Did you notice if the lounge had showers before you fly? Thanks
Yes, the lounge does have showers, but unfortunately I was not able to use them due to lack of time.
Which Camera gear do you use ?
This was filmed using a GoPro Hero 7
sitting on the window seat, do you have to bother your neighbour on the aisle seat to get out?
Unfortunately yes. If the aisle seat is in the full flat position, you either need to ask them to retract the seat or jump over them 🙁
@@VimanPhotography I see, thank you for telling.
Very nice video as a aviation fan:) Thanks for update! May I know if you are star alliance gold member?
Thank you! I used to be Star Gold but not anymore - not much flying in the last 2 years sadly.
Did you get priority boarding at the gate?
Yes. There were separate queues at the gate for Business & Economy
What about CHAMPAGNE?..
Im going to singapour 16 may almost 12 hours non stop flights
Have a great flight
nice video! how did you buy that? do you use miles or do you pay the full price?
A combination of both.
@@VimanPhotography How much did you need to top up for the upgrade to business?
@@julianong88 I was a few thousand miles short of the required amount, so had to buy the remaining miles. The cost is 30USD per 1000 miles
I just watched your vlog last evening 👍. How much did you need to pay for the buggy ride to board your flight?
I think it was 6 EUR IIRC
@@VimanPhotography Thank you 🥰
8 Months ago I came from Istanbul to San Francisco business class $15000 one way for 4 people total disappointment they do go above beyond
Bro, what do you mean. It was a disappointment but they went above and beyond 😂
Hi Viman!
Thanks for sharing. I like it.
By the way I need your suggestion in regards for upgrading my economy flight from Miami to Istanbul with Turkish Airlines. Is the price are the same when upgrading through online and over the counter? Is there any differences?
Thanks.
🙏😀

Turkish Airlines
Are they still requiring masks??
No, they've removed the requirement to wear masks now.
The best in the world.
The Stanley Parable Song hahaha
Nice video!
Something that still keeps surprising me is that even in Business Class meals are extremely repepetitive no matter where you fly..🤷🏻♂️
Had the same meals to New York..
Keep it up!
Yep, true that.
My mom she will book business class can she sleep there? i mean change the position of the seat ?!
Yes, the business class seat gets converted to a full flat bed.

@@VimanPhotography How much money will I deduct from my account using a credit card?
21:20 I was amazed by the view and then got embarassed really quick
Haha yeah. Wish that window view was real!
After the bad experience I had with them two years ago(airlines customer service ) I sworn I will not fly with them again unless it’s absolutely necessary.
u good that ur not in that dreadful middle seat in the middle section. Insane that airlines have 2-3-2 config on a wide-body business class these days. The same goes for EK - simply unacceptable.
True that. While the seats themselves are quite comfortable, one cannot have a middle seat in Business Class in this day and age.
Hello
Too bad that the business class configuration is 2-3-2. You basically have to jump on other passengers to get to the aisle if they are using the seat flat.
True that. They really need to upgrade their Business product on the 777s
What? No staggered seats? Ridiculous.
Unfortunately that's the case with their 777s. Their newer 787s and A350s have staggered seats in Business Class
Good meal service but very outdated hard product.
Indeed. The product needs a refresh urgently
For non Turkish passengers Soon as they know you speak in Turkish or you are Turkish descent that's where the service ends. So disappointed .... the price I paid for 13 hr flght and the service I and my Family got so disappointed...
Very interesting, why?

True. The TK 777s need an urgent refresh.

What an embarrassing business class. Just awful
