Flying Turkish Airlines New A350 + My First Hot Balloon Ride

I flew on Turkish Airlines' new A350 from Montreal to Istanbul. I went behind the scenes on flight operations from the cockpit and in the cabin as a passenger to experience the brand-new aircraft. The mask is no longer mandatory on Turkish Airlines unless the destination requires it. Welcome drink, and full meal service have now been returned onboard.
The Turkish Airlines A350 Business Class cabin has an understated luxury silver/gray decor with all aisle access. Window seats are even number 2/4/6/8. While the privacy is excellent, I found the seat to be quite narrow for myself. In Economy, the Turkish Airlines A350 feature standard 3-3-3 configuration with seat 28A and 28K have extra leg room with no seat in front.
I continued my connection to Izmir from Istanbul. The 50 minute domestic flight in Turkey really impressed me with a full meal served. I traveled by car to Pamukkale to see the famous pools of Pamukkale. It was my first time in a hot balloon and what an experience!

    Earlier this year I flew business class LAX - IST (777) and IST - CDG in the new A350. I was in one of the window seats on the A350 and found it to be spacious and very comfortable. I love Turkish Airlines catering with the onboard chef, multiple courses, and good food. I didn't find the A350 seat to be too narrow or restrictive and thoroughly enjoyed the privacy in my seat. Sam always does a good job of flight reviews.
