Turkish Airlines Business Class | Istanbul to Kuala Lumpur on Boeing 777-300(ER)
A video review of my flight in Business Class on board Turkish Airlines Boeing 777-300(ER) from Istanbul to Kuala Lumpur.
Enjoy the Turkish Business Class experience on the ground and in the air on this nearly 10 hour flight to KUL.

Летали из Петербурга (Россия) в Канкун))) Самолеты старые и раздолбанные)))) Надо отдать должное что в бизнес-классе кормили очень хорошо! И обслуживание на самом высоком уровне! Новый аэропорт - прекрасен! Дубай отдыхает))))) В общем турки - молодцы!

Thanks for the video. Would you recommend an aisle seat in the middle, or on the sides? Traveling solo, I am wondering which would leave you less likely to have people disturbing you during the night. You got lucky that the seat next to you was empty:)
@VimanPhotography
Жыл бұрын
The aisle seat in the middle row would be better as the middle seat pax has two options to reach the aisle. There is also a higher chance of the middle seat being empty if the flight is not full. A window seat pax on the other hand has no other choice but to disturb the aisle pax if they need to reach the aisle.

Thank you! There is no "completely free" way to get lounge access while flying Economy. You need to be either an Elite member (Gold/Platinum level) of an airline/alliance's Frequent Flyer program or have a credit card which allows lounge access at certain airports. Some airlines like Turkish also allows Economy Class passengers to buy a one-time lounge access along with their ticket on domestic flights. Hope this helps!

True that. While the seats themselves are quite comfortable, one cannot have a middle seat in Business Class in this day and age.
Too bad that the business class configuration is 2-3-2. You basically have to jump on other passengers to get to the aisle if they are using the seat flat.

Imagine you are placed in the middle seat at the middle row, with one that drinks all night on the left and a screaming child on the right! It is all about the hard product! Turkish and emirates has the worst business class seats on their 777. No privacy ! You were lucky that the next seat is empty. It is not worth the 4 to 5 times price of economy. On the otherhand Turkish has better seats in the economy, only 3 3 3 instead of the normal 777 3 4 3 seatings.
