oh wow! Flying to Havana.. impressive... Well done Turkish Airlines :) Turkish and Singapore Airlines are my 2 favorite..
turkish airline the food is inpeccable and its really nice! always with turkish ...
I'm cuban and flew 4 times with TK and I just need to say they r really wonderful!!!!I love the video!!
Thanks Yosvel! They are very good for sure in the international flights!
Buenos dias soy Cubana ahora estoy en Turquia he viajado dos veces a Istambul con turkish Airlines, increible aereolina lo mejor de lo mejor, gracias a todos.
Its nice to see them offer amenity kids in economy.Something which is very rare.And the food looks of good quality.It looks like a business class meal.Very nice.
Wow, I didn't know that Turkish is flying to Havana! Great tripreport mate, TK must be one of the best carriers in the world! Well done, thumbs up! :)
Hello CSpotting! Thanks! TK in the economy class is maybe the best airline. Considering especially the prices from Europe to Cuba that is about 600-1000 euro.
No wonder why they always say we fly to many destinations than any other airline. I love Turkish Airlines
Turkish Airlines offers Istanbul destinations in North and South America, Africa, Europe and the Middle and Far East. Anadolujet and Sunexpress also operate routes. Turkish Airlines is also the airline that flies to the most destinations worldwide with 52 national and 267 international destinations Fleet size: 317 (+ 166 orders)
Really enjoyed that mate it was top banana vlog great content ,and I felt it deserved my time taken to comment GREAT STUFF!!. I love flying Turkish Airlines as they are such high quality and fantastic value. I have another flight with them at the end of Mar 19. looking very forward to that.
They're starting flights to Mexico this year! They took a long time but they're finally doing it
Yeah thats great news!I wish to fly there
The special livery is a memory of 2 historical events of the rescue flight by Turkish Airlines in 1985 when 215 Japanese people were stranded in Tehran during the Iran-Iraq war. Turkish Airlines were the only airlines to bravely send a DC-10 in order to bring them home at that time. And in 1890 a Turkish Frigate ship sank during a Typhoon while on its way to Japan. The villagers of Kushimoto were nearby and were able to save most of its turkish crew members. Hence to remember the special friendship , Turkish Airlines created the Kushimoto Livery.
Turkish Airlines is bestttt...
It is a very good airline indeed!
@Bernd Klüver i would say yes! the food is nice! the service is nice ! and its not the same as most of the other airlines around europe ....
Very nice and helpful video. Congrats
Turkish Airlines is best airlines in the world! Nice video by the way thanks for show!
Excelent report my friend. Food has got a great impact for me lol
Very enjoyable video, can’t wait to see the return flight
Thank you Swedish Flyer, soon I will upload it, but I have two other videos already ready. There are more Turkish Airlines A330 in my channel.
Very, very good Trip Report. Really enjoyable! Thanks for sharing :D
Thank you very much for your comment! I have more similar reports in my channel :)
Nice video, thank you for your sharing.
I loved it mate, awesome video, I had no idea You can fly direct to Cuba from Turkey. One day......
Excellent!! This is the way all trip reports should be made!!
Thank you, my friend!
@@AirFlightTravels You're welcome!
Cuba is well known for the vintage cars & old towns
Fantastic trip report video! Thank you for sharing your travels with us! =D

Thank you very much!
Phenomenal! interesting destination for sure
Thank you Becker!
You now earned your self a sub great travel vid btw🇸🇴♥️
Thank you Mohamed! Check my other videos as well.
Always a pleasure watching your videos. What I like the most was the La Habana sights while you were landing, very nice indeed. I hope you'd enjoyed your 1st transatlantic flight.
Thank you MauComposer10! Havana was great indeed and the morning light helped a lot. I loved the flight! Cheers!
Nice report! Did you use Imovie to edit this video?
Thanks. I used another software.
I also LIKE this trip report :) Well done dude.
Thanks FlyTravelXpert!
I agree, meals on TK flights are the best! I recently flown with Emirates (A380) in economy class, surely the A380 is the most comfortable but the meal offered by Emirates can't reach the TK!
Hello Domenico! A380 is indeed a very comfortable airplane! I loved the experience. Actually, I have a video in my channel. I think the meal was also very good in Emirates. I'd rate them equally.
@@AirFlightTravels I found Emirates meal very simple, indeed I really appreciate Air Asia meal. Do you ever tried it?
Nice with the retro
Loved the video. Captures everything well. Best of all, No rubbish music all over the place ruining it.Legroom seems very good, not like your legs grow over the course of the flight. Love the 330, man.
Thank you +cndam. A 330 is a very efficient aircraft both for the airline and the passengers. As about the legroom, in the beggining, it might seems ok, but if you are for many hours there and you want to stretch sometimes or sleep, then it changes the perspective. Cheers!
Bathroom looked like a 10/10 to me. Better than some.business class bathrooms I've seen
C’est du confort félicitations
excelent!
I had to subscribe for that!
in 2019 i visited cuba, and it was my 2nd longest flight of my life. 1st is going back from havana :) it tooks almost 16-17 hours.
NICE!!!
Gracias

@@samibraitaa1170 opinion vary
Great tripreport
Thank you very much! There are more similar trip reports in my channel!

Thank you!
Does the plane have the old design on it or am I just crazy!
Hello. Yes it is an old retro livery.
Not old design. This is special livery for turkish airlines. You should be investigate this livery Have a so cool story
Apollo Motovlog ok thank you!
Miller Ahn 👋🏻👍🏼
The cameras are working, but they are placed at the front gear, so they only show something during take off, landing and on the ground.
Unfortunately, the cameras weren't working during takeoff or landing.
Were the passengers Turkish or Cuban or other? Were they tourists or something else? I'm curious to know what their profile would be for such a route
Hello. Most of the people were International tourists and then some locals, mostly from Venezuela. Turkish people were just a few, not so many.
@@AirFlightTravels oh ok. thanks for the report as always!
@@MEGIDIOT You're welcome!
I would love to fly to Havanna with Turkish Airlines one day. It’s just incredibly expensive getting there sadly. I don’t think I have seen any flights from Frankfurt in Economy for less than 1100€ round trip
I just checked dates in September and the price from Frankfurt is 606euro round trip with a short connection or you can stay in Istanbul for a day with free hotel or city tour. Very very cheap flight price! You will have 5 flights with A330. FRA-IST-HAV-CCS-IST-FRA
AirFlight Travels Wow, I remember they were really expensive back then when I checked.
606 really is incredibly cheap. I had tons of layovers in Istanbul but they were all transiting from International to Domestic so I never got to try the Touristanbul or the Hotel offer.
Going to keep that in mind next time when I’m planning holidays, thanks for checking!
İstanbul dan Havana 'ya gitmiş gibi oldum.
Hi, how did u do to get access to lounge ? did u pay and how much it cost ? and what lounge ? thx.
I took this flight to carcass from amman jordan the ticket price was soo expensive around US$ 3000 im economy but it was the only option few airlines fly to Venezuela
Wow, very expensive! Usually, the flight round trip is less than 1000euro from Europe.
Which airport of istanbul is
Its the old one Atatruk
6:34 Οι Έλληνες είναι παντού τελικά
Έτσι ακριβώς!
2:26 It's called as "pide" actually
Thanks
@@AirFlightTravels lahmacun is different
remote looks like super famicom controller
Was the flight nonstop to Havana? I got confused.
Istanbul Havana direct. Havana Karakas(one stop to get people from Karakas in to the plane and than Karakas Istanbul
Nice video!! DO YOU ENJOY YOUR TIME IN CUBA ?
Yes, Cuba is a very beautiful country!
why the plane is painted differently ?
Because Kushimoto's have a story.

Can you see USA out of window at some point?
PS Great video!
Hello, thanks for your comment. At some point, we could spot Florida between the thunderstorms and the clouds.
Aaaaaa Thy eski model boyamaya donmus cok hos
BARIS KAZAR, Sadece bir uçakları öyle boyamalı, nostalji olsun diye öyle yapıyor bazı havayolları, sadece thy değil.
Evet olabiliyor arada guzel bence
Thy nin yapmasina sasirdim

Did they give you a tourist card on the flight??
Hello. What do you mean by that? We had like a customs form I think.
AirFlight Travels like a visa. Did you have to get your visa beforehand or did they give you the Visa cards on board. I know that Air Canada gives them on board for free.
@@juyounghan6268 No any airline can not provide you with Visa. I had visa back from my country. You have to check the visa policy with any country. For examples Canadians maybe have a Free visas on arrival, but if you fly from Canada with an Italian passport you need also to have prearranged a visa.
AirFlight Travels ok thanks
@@juyounghan6268 what is canada ?
How did you have access to the lounge in economy class ?
It is kind of complicated... But I had business class on my way back, I will upload that video next month.
If you have Star Alliance Gold or equal card, you can access lounge.
@@ErdemGunay76 I know but I thought most people who fly often enough to get a Gold Status fly Business anyways.
Excellent!!!What livery is this?
It's a retro livery, probably inspired by their aircraft in the past.
Thank you!
@R4D104CT1V3 The livery?
This is oldest livery of THY, i remember from my childhood
Παντού Έλληνες
You can shower in lounge?
In Istanbul yes
@@AirFlightTravels that is cool
They still have their old livery
Its a retro repainting
I was in this flight and to same airplane too

Is there a Mexico flight yet ?
The new flight connection will begin on August 21.
Turkish Airlines has flight Istanbul - Mexico City
Shame you didn't get a bus at Havana I hear they're very old fashioned spartan vehicles.
Did you manage to watch the video so fast? Thank you for watching! Yeah, seems that there are many hidden gems in Cuba.

Great! When did you fly?

@@flymia1757 I loved your country!
good trip report but i gotta ask, no wifi ?
There is wifi but it costs money on economy. It is free in business class
Thank you. I asked because in their website they specify that wifi is only for b777 flights
mohamed wael thabet most A330s have it too
That turkish airlines which you flew with it its old because of The livery other turkish airlines have another The new livery
It's a vintage - retro livery
I don´t like Turkey, Cuba or Venezuela but the video is nice
Are you Greek ?
From Bougatsocity.
İts pide not lahmacun
Yeah, its mentioned many times. Thanks
It would be better if you don't Filming toilets.
I believe when you travel and you are spending many hours and airport and airplanes it is a necessary part of your trip, so its good to know the situation there.
I agree I don't know why people do that or feel the need. Its best left well out of it in my opinion!
2:27 it is spelt lahmacun.
Os Man said its Pide and not Lahmacun but the Turksih C letter is something like ts or tz or j... So I don't know the exact English spelling. Thanks
AirFlight Travels very nice video by the way. Includes details not even the biggest trip reporters use!
@@travia6688 Thank you my friend! Feel free to check my channel with more trip reports like this!
AirFlight Travels I will, and please do air astana
@@travia6688 I would love to travel with Air Astana and visit Kazakhstan. They still operate 757,767 and they expect 787.
this is not greek ouzo, that is turkish Rakı
I am not saying that it is called ouze but this is exactly the same with Greek Ouzo, 100% the same, flight crew confirmed that, cause Raki in Greece and the Balkans is a different drink, check Raki from Crete.
Cuba 🇨🇺 is good for people not from Cuba I remember 20 year I still in this country and 💯 Cuban everybody enjoy I never enjoy nothing in my born country good luck my opinion is 👎🏻 Castro’s and comunistas...
😂😂😂👎
