Another Black Friday deal and this one from one of my favorite airlines (in business or economy) – Turkish Airlines. While this is restricted to coach and to flights departing from the US, there is still a lot of value to find here!

How Much Can You Save?
Turkish Airlines always has a lot of the price of the ticket tied up in fuel surcharges and taxes so don’t be surprised if the discount is not as great as you may expect. Still, a savings of $40 or more on Turkish Airlines is pretty good since they have some of the best ticket prices on flights from the US to Europe on a consistent basis.
Turkish Airlines flies to more destinations than any other airline in the world and they are conveniently located to do so. If you are searching for tickets for more than a couple of people, this fare sale could save you quite a bit of money. Plus, it is a nice way to fly. I have flown Turkish Airlines’ business class and economy class countless times and always enjoy the service in both.
Note: Do remember that US passport holders are currently unable to obtain visas to enter Turkey. You can still transit without a problem (I did this after the ban went into place) but if you have a long layover, you may want to check your options. There is a hotel airside and if you have Star Alliance Gold status, you will have access to the phenomenal business class lounge. I have actually spent a few nights in there on layovers for early more flights and really do not mind it at all!
