Dalaman to Manchester Turkish Airlines

[Ian]

Ah well - back thru Antalya again 

[Karennina]

having never used Turkish Airlines before am I right in thinking that they do not fly directly from Dalaman to Gatwick but you have to stop over at Istanbul, I am just curious for the future, thanks for any replies

Hi Karennina, yes it is an internal flight to Istanbul, then you go to international departures for the second leg of your journey.  In our case we have 2hrs 30mins in Istanbul but as we've never used this route before, it gives us time to find our way around.

Turkish Airlines have changed winter flights from Istanbul to Dalaman.
Flights which were sold as departing at 20-45 are now leaving at 17-30.
If you were depending on that 20-45 time for a connection, I suggest you double check.

Amca, which month are you referring to?

[amca]

It seems to be November through February.

[Marggie]

Think that is the norm in the winter months.  I checked out March yesterday and it is the same.

[Karennina]

Thank you Marggie i will bear that in mind for future trips, we keep saying we are going to go to Istanbul at some point so will come in handy if we do  

[Marggie]

Good value for anybody who wants to break their journey and stay overnight in Istanbul.  Price includes luggage, in-flight meals and in-flight drinks.  Much cheaper than any of the charter companies for October.

IF you have Finnas Exclusive card you can use the vip lounge at Dalaman and Istanbul.
Great Flight and air miles.
