“What an amazing journey in the sky! Thankful for weather and our competent pilot Furkan, this experience was surreal. The basket didn't move unexpectedly at all (comfort flight) and it was so calm that you can even do yoga in the sky. Today is November 26, but we weren't cold at all. It was absolutely serene in the air. We were also impressed with the light snack before the flight. Turkish friends always feed us well. Thank you for this unforgettable morning that now I will be disappointed to look at back in my house on the ground.”

“Overall it was excellent experience in every detail! The day we booked - flight was cancelled due to bad weather and no one was flying, so you can be sure about the safety, they check everything in advance. So we had our flight the next day and we were changed for standard 32-person cabin instead of comfort that we booked initially because they had too many people for that day. Sadly the cost difference wasn't refund, but we were ok with it because we had no choice for other day or other company. Anyway the price in low season is affordable. Our flight took honest one hour. We were lucky…”
