Title: Turkish Airlines direct flights from Gatwick to Dalaman
Post by: wishbone on June 16, 2020, 15:55:16 PM
Turkish Airlines are introducing direct flights from Gatwick to Dalaman.
That will suit us no need to go via Istanbul.
Just a matter of waiting until all this Covid-19 gets sorted out.

Whats complimentary on Turkish airline flights. I have never travelled with them,but people rave about them. Is the luggage the same?

I believe they've recently stopped the complimentary alcohol, but there's unlimited tea, coffee and soft drinks and the food is good.

flown with nearly all over last 15 years or so, and Turkish airways the best so far. the others now charge to much for luggage. and on two occasions i have been left stranded in Istanbul once with T.A and the other Pegasus, T.A no problem straight to hotel with meal voucher at their expense, but with the Pegasus flight it took them over two hours to sort out hotel.

Yes, we agree Turkish Airlines are best. Much better now the flights are direct to Dalaman from Gatwick. We have travelled with them Via Istanbul, but the transfer times for 2nd flight can be a bit hit and miss!
