sloop Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Anyone know if Turkish airways hold the next connection at istanbul airport if times are tight. Return flight there is only 45 mins Both flights with turkish airways Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LewisEDI Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 ive flown a couple of times through istanbul from edinburgh (with turkish) with only an hr and its been more than enough time even with having to walk about a mile through the airport, you dont have to go through security again which saves a lot of time, bags always made it too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kumnio Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Just booked us up using Turkish Airlines, £327 return which is good value. Went for good flight times, nothing early morning or late at night. Same flight combination coming in at £957 now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuzi Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 The flight out on Wednesday the 2nd has been moved from 11am to 4pm. I phoned turkish airlines a while back to move our istanbul to Tbilisi flight back so we would have a full 26 hours between connection to see Istanbul. They would do it at a cost of £50 per person. Phoned today and mentioned the origanal flight change and she's moved us to the 00.10 arrive 03.40 on the 4th (day of the game) for nothing so we get 26 hours in Istanbul.

You phone Edinburgh or one of the UK offices ? Trying to do something similar but the customer service line puts you through to Turkey which didn't help .............

macwomble Posted March 15, 2015 Author Share Posted March 15, 2015 We got a flight change for free as well due to the 11am to 4pm change. However we decided to move our outgoing flight to Istanbul back one full day and kept our flight to Tbilisi the same. Phoned 0844806666 and spoke to an English speaking customer services assistant. Most helpful and instant change made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy suggested going to Edinburgh airport to their office and i would have a better chance , just wondered if anybody had got anything changed through Turkish Airlines UK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuzi Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 It was abit of a nightmare. Ended up trying about four or five different times and eventually got someone who knew what I was talking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allywilson Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Booked from Edinburgh on the Saturday to Istanbul Tuesday fly to Tbilisi until the Saturday. Saturday afternoon back to Istanbul and then Sunday back to Edinburgh. Came in at around £555 for the 2 of us, so say £280 each. Can't complain at that.
