Join me on the 12-hour long-haul from Istanbul to Caracas with Turkish Airlines in business class (plus a peek at the 3 hour hope from Stockholm to Istanbul as well). This is my first long-haul with Turkish and my first time on their 787 Dreamliner. I already know I don't love IST as a connection point, but I'm undecided on Turkish Airlines itself - is it as good as the hype suggests, or is there room for improvement? During this flight I found myself comparing TK to Qatar Airways quite often. Watch the video to find out who does it better! Also, stick around to the end to learn more about entry requirements to Venezuela and how it's a lot more simple than it's made out to be online (and info is hard to come by!)
