Turkish Airlines flies to more countries than any other airline in the world, and they also consistently have among the best fares out there, both in economy and business class. They have a lot of seats to fill, so more often than not when I'm doing an airfare search between two markets, Turkish Airlines is…

Did you see that Amex is now taking apps for the Aspire/other new cards?

Sounds Nice but for most cheap economy tickets that'll be less than 5% off of the actual price if they aren't reducing the fuel surcharge element. More expensive/business class a better deal of course.

Strange... priced 2 flights RT/J CAI BKK on Mar and Apr on GF and followed thru to TK’s desktop site to price and on both times, they were approx. 15% cheaper than the mobile app. And I priced the flights on the mobile app till ressie and confirmation thinking the price would be adjusted.

I love comfort class on Turkish but find that the cabin is kept at such an insanely hot temperature that I wouldn’t ever fly them again - for me it makes the journey so uncomfortable it’s not worth it no matter how cheap. It’s a pity too because the food and the price and the seat (especially in Comfort out of JFK) is great. In business I can’t believe they still have middle seats: no thanks.

I tried to book but never got the “get the discount button” on the payment page. Did I miss something?

@Joe: same here! Can't find the 'get the discount button' either - and not visible at different tickets (semi-flex, full flex and business)

Turkish has been phasing out “comfort” class for a couple of years now. Are you sure they still fly it out of JFK? It hasn’t been on any of my recent flights.
Anyhow, I always change into light sweatpants and a T-shirt for sleep attire. In a warm cabin it helps immensely.

No more PEY or Comfort Class on TK.

For most territories, you will have to enter in manually the Promotion Code TKSMART18 at the Credit Card details to enjoy the discount.

There is four more hours till the promotion ends (Istanbul Time), and when I wanted to issue a ticket on the app, it shows "We are unable to process your request. Please try again later". I have tried it 10X, refreshing the app and search, and same result. It's so frustrating. What should I do?

hi, thanks. fully agree with yr comments abt booking via app.

just booked HAM-BKK in J, all fine until I came to "address" : was impossible to put in. tried 10 times but always rolled bck to start on top of form. closed app and loaded with my saved address. when going back i didn't see in the choice of some 10 flights there are 2 connections with "my" departure 18:35h, the intended one has 2 hrs in IST, i however booked another choice with 22h layover, got fooled by same ETD.

never wud have happened on pc where you see all flights at same time. in the end i saved 180 euro for discount but hv to pay 100 for rebooking, which is abt same i pay on cheap flight search engines. never again by app...

do u hv any gold status? TK quite generous with status match. send copy of card and last statement to TK and ask, for quite sure they will accept

anyhow easy to get gold: 40K miles ( e.g. 2 x business Europe - Bkk) gives you 2 yrs gold and than just 25K needed to extend 2 yrs. guess you know http://www.wheretocredit.com : makes it easy to choose which programme gives best mileage. happy landings

ps
my app- result by the way much worse than expected: rebook same etd ex HAM = 600 €, other flight same day "only" 300 so i will stay in IST for one day...
