Welcome back to another trip report! In this video I'll be covering Turkish Airlines new Economy Class product on their 787 Dreamliner from Washington, D.C. to Istanbul. Turkish Airlines has a great reputation among airline enthusiasts, so I was really interested to see if the redesigned cabins aboard their new 787's really lived up to the hype. Watch this whole video to see for yourself what the long-haul experience is like!

    Great review! I really loved the Economy Class seat design on TK's newer aircrafts. They definitely did a great job in their service especially their onboard catering. Loved their attention to details especially the design of their amenity kits! :)

Is it also illegal for United to not serve complimentary entrees in coach class when the price is high or it isn't illegal? Just want to make sure!

    Yeah, one reason I choose AF or KL instead of QR or EK from IAD to Asia is my fear of young mafia passengers near me in cattle class. Which often happens but not as bad as your experience. Which is why I'm not a teetototaler: I ask for more wine to relax my nerves so as to not murder misbehaving children. Anyway, thanks for the review on an airline that I've yet to try.
