THE PREPARATION FOR FLIGHT

Turkish Airlines’ business class travel begins long before you ever step onto the aircraft. Business class travelers can take use of dedicated check-in desks to avoid the lengthy lines sometimes encountered in economy class. This will give you more time to unwind before your trip because you’ll be able to check in and drop off your bags fast and effectively.

You will have access to one of Turkish Airlines’ business class lounges after checking in, or one of their lounge partners. You already know that we adore airport lounges since they’re the best place to unwind before a long journey. A glass of prosecco is the best before a flight! Turkish Airlines’ hub airport in Istanbul is home to one of the most incredible lounges we’ve ever been in, with a golf simulator, massage therapist, kebab cooks, pressing service, sleeping suites, and showers. Chefs were continually producing fresh Turkish and other cuisines at more than 5 different food stations, including a manti station.

BOARDING

Business class customers often get priority boarding when it comes time to board your trip. As a result, you’ll be allowed to board the aircraft before others traveling in economy class, giving you time to find a seat before the rest of the aircraft is filled. Before the plane took off, we were given a choice of fresh juices or water upon boarding, as well as a warm towel.

AMENITIES ON BOARD

The onboard facilities are among the biggest benefits of traveling with Turkish Airlines in business class. The business class seats are made to be as comfortable and private as possible, allowing you to unwind and enjoy your ride. The standard seating arrangement is 2-2-2, with completely reclined seats that may be made into a lie-flat bed. This makes it possible for you to obtain some much-needed sleep throughout your travel, which will make adjusting to a new time zone simpler. A variety of conveniences are included with each seat to keep you entertained as well. Noise-canceling headphones, a personal screen with a wide variety of movies and TV shows, and a USB port are all supplied for passengers. Each seat also features lots of legroom, an adjustable headrest, and a reading light. Face spray, lip balm, hand lotion, cozy socks, and a toothbrush kit were all included in the amenity kit.

FOOD AND DRINK

The food and beverage options are a key additional benefit of travelling business class with Turkish Airlines. The ‘Flying Chef’ experience, when a chef comes out to take your order and deliver you meals, is available on flights longer than eight hours. Gourmet foods from Turkish to foreign cuisine are available to passengers.

The flying chef arrived with a cart of canapés on our flight. We chose from a variety of smoked salmon, hummus tabbouleh, marinated seafood salad, and pumpkin soup. Everything was delicious and you could get as much or as little as you wanted (I had two bowls of soup!). Red snapper filet, rigatoni with parmesan tomato sauce, or rosemary-grilled chicken breast were our meal options. Both the fish and the chicken we had were superb; Kaan chose the snapper. The staff is extremely lovely when they bring out an electric candle for the atmosphere during dinner service.

We had a large selection of Turkish pastries, cheesecakes, and souffle for dessert, and the trolley returned just in time for dessert. Turkish Airlines provides dine-on-demand during the flight, continuing the country’s tradition of welcoming guests beyond the lunch service. This implies that you can request extra food at any time throughout the journey if you are hungry, such as cheese plates, mezes, or sandwiches.

On board, there was a variety of Turkish and foreign wine and beer, as well as Tattinger champagne (which Kaan and I LOVEE and the staff kept replenishing). You won’t soon forget your time dining in business class on Turkish Airlines; all you have to do is sit back, sip your champagne, and take it all in.

Entertainment during flight

Turkish Airlines has a wide variety of in-flight entertainment options, making it simple to pass the time while you’re in the air. The airline’s entertainment system offers a selection of films, TV shows, and music in a variety of languages. Turkish Airlines provides business class guests with a free 1GB of onboard Wi-Fi in addition to the usual entertainment selections. This not only allows you to stay connected during your journey, but it also allows you to publish live updates to Instagram and Tiktok to share your Turkish Airlines experience with your friends and family.

SERVICE

You are given the highest attention and consideration the minute you board the aircraft. Your requirements will be anticipated by flight attendants, who will also tailor the experience to suit your tastes. The flight attendants will set up your bed with a mattress, pillows, duvet, slippers, and an eye mask when you’re ready to sleep.
