A video review of my flights in Turkish Airlines Business Class Boeing 787-9 and 777-300ER between San Francisco and Istanbul. I was surprised to notice the huge difference between these two aircrafts. This might be sth you want to pay attention to when you book your next Turkish Airlines business flight.

Super helpful review. Thank you. I knew they had 2 flights daily out of SFO and now I know which one to take (not TK 80) since 787 looks so much better. Love the info on Wi Fi, how can one stay disconnected for such a long time lol...even if it wasn't free, it's a must in my book.

Hey, about the lounge, Turkish Airlines passengers can use the United Air Polaris lounge, which when I visited, had great showers and food, even a bar with great selection of drinks if you are into that.

787 is a very nice plain but, periodically, they let your book on a dream liner, which is it at 3:50 a bus or 787 later they change it to Oak Lane which is 777 which is super old would old chairs and a business class and it smells disgusting

I just glad that the Chefs are back and the catering is almost pre pandemic. Thanks for posting. I'm not too excited about the type of seats of the B787. I experienced that configuration already with Delta A333, Air Canada B789( our flight attendant going to Incheon was tops. Food was very good), China Eastern B777 back from Shanghai( bad service and food). What I like with the Dreamliner is that it's quieter than the other types of plane. What I don't like, the cubicle is too claustrophobic. I don't have enough space too move freely. Nice to experience it but it depends on individual preference. These are the same planes we will take this month and back next month the same route. I prefer the B777 or other types of aircraft. But seats should be 2X2X2. Take the center seats either you're travelling alone or with companion, both has aisle access. The cabin has an airy feel. My top airline is Egypt Air B777. Too much space front cabin that you can even dance the jive in there. No alcohol others complain but fine with me. Service was very good and we had an omelette shaped like a small pyramid and the salmon was the best. Happy travels.

Hello again. I'm sure you enjoyed your visit to Turkey. Since you were just there recently, you are the right one that I will ask some questions. We are leaving in 2 weeks from SFO, the earlier flight, and we are still worried about travel restrictions to Turkey. I know visa is required. HES code is no longer required. I am checking but a lot of websites are popping up one is visas Turkey and many more. Did you still fill up a Personal Locator Form? I saw that it costs 37 Euros. How could this be right when other EU countries don't charge for Personal Locator? It's hard to fall on a website that is not legit. If Vaccination and other things are no longer required then PLF will be included. Happy travels.@@ChocoTravelGuide

@@tonyo7324 I don't remember spending 37 euros for that. I only downloaded an app for tracking purpose. You would need to do so before the airport staff can allow you to check in. It was pretty fast and I did that in the airport.

@@ChocoTravelGuide We got our E-visa from Ministry of Turkiye website given to me by our Embassy in Ankara. It was nice of them to give me that. Visa is with a fee. The Travel Entry Form we got it from The Ministry of Health Turkiye. This one is free. I think this the same one you did at SFO. We will stay overnight near the airport. Thanks so much for the info.

@@ChocoTravelGuide - th k you for your prompt reply. I secured a $2900 rt from ORD to BER on the 777-300. The 787 flight was $2200 more. I agree the 1-2-1 configuration is sweet, but my view is $2200 would buy a nice business class seat on a future flight.... time will supply my answer. Thank you again.

I must say, Turkish airline is the worst airline of all the airlines. They are supremely irresponsible. They would change your flights from business class to college and would not let you know they changed the flights to dream liner to a regular old airplane, which constantly shakes and feels like it’s going to fall anytime stay away from them

@@ChocoTravelGuide They have changed all in-flight schedules concerning my flight to Europe. It is unfortunate how they wouldn't take any responsibility. Turkish airline It is hit or miss airline while you were thinking you’re getting a dream liner, all of a sudden, you’ve been downgraded to an old plane that literally shakes constantly. You have seven people in one row, and you were getting a dream liner and then a cheap plane

I flew with Turkish last week… honestly it was exceptionally poor… the crew didn’t bother with service and seemed harried the entire time… they ran out of business class kits… just before they got to me… they didn’t even bother to explain… Then after take off their only objective was to get us down to sleep… again not explained just told they would conduct the make up service Where was the main meal… it was never served… again not explained… then breakfast was served without asking if we wanted it or not… local fly in time was in fact evening… It was sincerely chaotic… strange and not enjoyable…. I fly back with Turkish business tonight… I hope for a better outcome in short

Hello Adam, Flying with any airline , aircraft, any class is always a hit and miss especially before and during the pandemic and even until now. That is maybe the pandemic hangover you experienced during your flight. We will take the same route but the earlier one from SFO but coming back is the same time. I am not putting high hopes on it because the vlogs of so many vloggers are totally different. Delays , missing connections and cancellations are the things I'm worried about during these times because it will ruin the whole schedule. We just like to experience different airlines the flagship of each country we go. I hope you enjoyed your trip to Turkey. Happy travels.
