Turkish Airlines 787 Business Class - Istanbul to Atlanta
Vložit
- čas přidán 9. 06. 2024
- Turkish Airlines introduced the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner to its fleet last year, and along with this, new business class seats. Their renowned catering and lounge still uphold the highest of standards, and rivals many first class products in this area. In this long-haul experience, I show their food, entertainment, service, and more food.

#TurkishAirlines #787
I don't think I've ever seen a more professional, informative and humorous trip report. Ever. Well done dude. Your trip reports are masterpieces.
Thank you, though I wouldn’t call them masterpieces, not compared to your videos anyways.
They honestly aren't the most thorough aviation product review videos out there; but the comedic relief and realism make them the most enjoyable.
@@VicariousVoyager Just what i just wanted to comment as well. Very well done! First trip report I did not fall asleep half way ;) Well done man! Keep it coming.
@@VicariousVoyager you're too cute lol
OneMoreWeekToGo I had intended to fast forward through the video but when I watched and listened I realized that this was more informative than I thought🤓thank you for sharing this and I #subscribed
I love Turkish airlines it’s my favorite airline ❤️🇹🇷
Sağol çardaş
Lehpna TV San çok tatli 💞💗🙏🏻
@ercan fgyhuji karadas vvv :3
Same here
Hate it 💯🇦🇲🇷🇺
I literally just pissed myself with laughter when he did the quick run through of the lounge ‘food, food food food food, whatever the fuck that is...’ 😂😂😂😂
Update on the taxis (I was there 1 week ago): taxis have gone really corrupt in Istanbul. They will usually only accept tourists that speak a foreign language, especially from the touristy areas. They will charge illegal prices and/or drive out of their way for the meter to go up. If you are going to/from the airport, reserve a private shuttle, or ask the hotel to call a legit taxi. Despite that, Istanbul is a beautiful city, and I totally recommend going there, as well as the rest of Turkey.
tysm!
So true. As a 20-year-old Istanbul resident myself, I can easily say do not take a taxi unless you know every single bit of the city. So, a taxi is already a pass for people like me who knows certain areas better and it has to be a big no-no for the tourists.
Uber is legal here so I recommend people to take it instead since its pricing is calculated by the app and not the distance traveled. If you want to go cheap you can always pick up a bus but you are warned, they are too crowded, people standing up can squeeze each other enough that not one falls or gets shaken during a hard brake.
as a Turkish person, I suggest you use an application called BiTaksi so you can see the price and see the stats of drivers. And also uber came back to Istanbul again but it's just only for taxi drivers , by that way you can have a safe and no-hustle trip. Especially if you landed at Sabiha Gokcen Airport go out a little bit and call a taxi by applications which I mentioned before. Don't ever use airport taxis. They even charged the fees in double when the Ataturk Airport attacked by ISIS and they didnt accept any turkish people on their cars .
@@oguzcankilickaya8540 this was probably just us being unlucky but we heard that advice to use BiTaksi when we got to Istanbul, and that driver also tried to make us pay too much by making us pay upfront.
If you are staying in Taksim area, just take the shuttle bus. It's fast, it's cheap. My fiancé and I took the shuttle bus to and from the airport the second time we were in Istanbul (he took it both times). It was absolutely the best way to get to Taksim area for a low cost without a hassle.
TURKISH airlines is way the best what I ever expierence
Willem Willem could you expend a bit further , why for you is the best ever ? , so I will give a try next time flying to DUBAI , I am flying so often with Emirates ; business class 380 seems better than this one , you are already surrounded by multiple drinks as soon as you reach your seat ... but I like the black seat colour here looks chic ...
@@Kassiusday only tried air france, tp air portugal, iberia airlines, Vueling Airlines, Air Europa , Air Arabia, Trom, royal air maroc, ryanair, Bleu air, Alitalia, Austrian Airlines, Lufthansa, Turkish airlines.. amd other i prob forgot, but tbh i only take Economy tickets and wont lie turkish airlines where the most pleasent even if its not usualy as cheap as lufthansa or rayanair or vuelin
Kassius KLAY chill dude he just said his opinion
No one wearing mask... strange world
@@solesplendente_ bro it was months ago
Turkish airlines = amazing as usual!
“ran out of imperial jokes but had metric tonne of leg room”
its these little details, the finishing touches that does it for me
Mr. Bu's trip reports are the gold standard; this is how they should be done. Eloquent, humorous, entertaining and informative. My new favourite. 10/10.
You say the menu is shaped like a minaret (17:35), in fact it represents a tulip which is a symbol of Istanbul. Otherwise an excellent review.
You are right! The control tower is also shaped like a tulip. My bad.
Lovely beautiful minarets all over Turkey. Minarets always remind me of Turkey
@@stroseblue Have you been in Turkey?
@@omericimli3043 yes, about 5 times now.
Haha @Vicarious Voager. Feels bad mate
I like the Turkish Airlines business lounge in Istanbul new airport.
New airport 😍😍😍😍😍
I want to go there
imo turkish airlines has the best food and the best response to last-minute/emergency requests and needs, and i've only ever flown with the economy class
I had absolutely the best journey with Turkish Airlines. I flew from Birmingham to Istanbul in Business Class and the flight attendants were absolutely the most kind and caring people I’ve ever met! The company helped me a lot due to the big hurricane “Ciara” *if I remember right* as well! My friend who was flying with Lufthansa cancelled her flight 3 times and still they offered her nothing. To me, They only cancelled it once and they gave me free stay at a 4 stars hotel with free transportation and free breakfast! Never gonna forget this experience ❤️ 🇹🇷
Skytrax did not award 5 stars to Turkish Airlines, because TK did not pay Skytrax for 5-star priced consulting services
Well Skytrax is known very well for being corrupted as hell
Anastasia Lazareva yea indeed it is really corrupt.
Turkish Airlines is not need 5 stars from skytrax because we know they deserved 5 stars

mad 🦃 s
Love your way of storytelling! Humor mixed with good facts and also fair reviews. As an airline employee myself I feel that you really do give every airline a really nice walkthrough and hope to see you onboard one of my flights in the future!
Let’s take a moment and say Turkish airlines is the best
Turkish Airlines might have good service but it's one of the most dangerous airlines in the world. Especially the pilots and engineers are known to be very unprofessional.
@@ererper5434 lmfao stop reading shits in internet
Er Erper wtf no it’s one of the safest what you talkin about
@@ererper5434 LMAO.......
Binge watching your videos right now and the quality is unmatched! I learn so much about the airlines and destinations, they make me excited to start traveling again
Best lounge i ever seen
Love turkish airlines ❤️❤️
Me too!❤️🥰❤️
Sold to arabs unfortunately least some good percentage of it
This gentleman is by far the best airline reviewer out there right now!
Wow, you've really gone the extra mile. Instead of just showing us the plane journey, you've explained the history and details of the cities you're travelling to and from ALONG WITH amazing graphics! Well done!
Oh god , I miss Istanbul and Turkish Airline ,this brings back so much GREAT memories . Nice video , you are funny af , definitely a refreshing breath among airline reviewer !
8:45 "... and not touching your face..."
*Guy next to you touches his face*
🤣🤣🤣
I lost it at “Lebanese bachelor party”
And the toilet water in english joke too lol!
Turkish airlines is just perfect ❤️
No
Your deadpan delivery with humour thrown in makes me chuckle. What business are you in that you get to travel like this?
Teeter Totter I do research in computational radiology, I also go to school for medicine.
@@VicariousVoyager Safe travel back to U of T community
@@VicariousVoyager that’s awesome. i don’t hear of graduate programs that fund trips like these! what are the business reasons for them? it’d be very interesting to shed some light on this!
@@joenyc he works with Google I creeped the LinkedIn lmao
Excellent review bro. I'm Turkish so i proud of your opinion and feelings. Thank you 🙏❤️👏
This was probably the best flight report I have seen - professionally made, funny and witty, great filming, great voicing. Kudos! Keep up the great work!
Turkish airlines was by far the best airline I used. I flew economy in 2021. As he states alot of walking at the new istanbul airport, I was grateful I wore a good pair of runners. Amazing airport!
How was economy class??
I feel guilty that this masterpiece is free to watch. This video is better than most travel TV shows.
I was going to say just how good these videos are, but then I thought, why bother, everyone below has already said all that, and probably better than I could.. You are getting funnier though. Love that.
I love the humour and sarcasm. You needs to get that cough sorted though (cough Lufthansa!)
@@simonpilk that was a "price above rubies" 😂😂😂
Thank you, I'll be sure to feed my joke writers more slop. - jk I can't afford joke writers.
completely agree!
@@VicariousVoyager Do you think its ok to make fun of Americans just because you are European African yourself? Also, they prefer to be called native americans now 🐱🏍
This guy is my favourite. He keeps the experience simple, exciting and more importantly genuine.
I've been in this business class lounge in Turkey. AMAAAZING. Come early, come hungry. BIG workout day before :)
I like how you casually mentions you got kicked out from the lounge. If this was Josh Cahill he would have made a whole video just about that.
You are absolutely right Viktor :)
Just love your humor, and the videos you do. But!! Please watch your language. My grandson was watching your videos with me , and a 5 year old dosen't need to hear the f word. ( he heard it) so we had a discussion about it. Also the lord's name in vain. No bueno!!
James Smith why is your grandson watching a video that’s not rated for children friendly? Why should he stop swearing occasionally when his content is clearly not meant for children?
Josh Pratt some avgeeks can be children
Josh would've demanded the President of Turkey issue a personal apology.
"....continuing down south into Freedomland..." I spat tea out of my nose!
My favorite First Class (Business) Airline experience. Never had any troubles with the WiFi. Overly solicitous crew “No I can tuck myself in thank you.” 😂 I loved watching the flight path. Turkish newspapers are eye opening.
I spent several weeks in UAE ; Abu Dhabi and Dubai. The best food I had was on the Turkish AirLines Business class flights. I still have my minarets.
What a beautiful Airport ... I must say that I’m totally impressed
The aircraft looks absolutely sleek, stylish & modern
This trip report is freakin fantastic! After watching the entire video I can confidently say that YOU ARE THE BEST trip reporter on You Tube. The editing, level of detailed information and your slick humour makes this such a great experience. I liked, subbed...all that good stuff. Exceptional work!
I have never seen a trip report that was so entertaining.... Brilliant job dude, keep it up... you have earned a subscriber :)
I love your commentary!! You are so funny and very articulate, a great vlog.
Having only recently discovered your channel, I am playing catch-up. I notice that I always have a smile on my face at the end of one, which shows how enjoyable they are. 5 stars, keep up the good work and thank you.
I just love flying with turkish comparing to other famous ones, and their landing is smoothest,
Istanbul's international airport is quite nice. I stop there often during my trips and I have a great experience every time from LAX to where it is I'm flying to.
I use Turkish Business Class at least twice a year (until Covid emerged) from Manchester UK via IST to S. Africa, either Durban or Cape Town and return, they are absolutely superb. The Comfort, Catering and Level of Service is consistently every bit as good as you describe. In my experience the service on the ground is equally good and, the lounge at IST....... simply Wow !!
One other aspect I can add is- As an Elderley (long-time retired) passenger who travels alone, assistance for the less mobile is equally attentive.
Definitely my first choice Airline.
I have used other Middle Eastern carriers on the same routes who, whilst good don't in my experience quite come up to Turkish standards, also for me the TK flight schedules are better with fast transits at IST.
yh like we didn’t know it was via IST
I stopped right about the end of the video to say (and I don’t do that often) that your content is absolutely amazing. Love the puns and the funny translation of Eau de Toilette. You’ve earned yourself a loyal subscriber. A fan!
I’m so happy your channel was recommend by CZcams. You share with us your first class experiences with a down-to-earth attitude, subtle self depreciated humor, and top notch content.
Clicked on the video thinking this will be another boring video from some random youtuber, but stayed to the end mini Sam.
We proud of your ideas as a Turk. We proud of Turkish Airlines 🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷
Your Sense of humor is absolutely brilliant/ "As the Jet Bridge pulled away it slowly revealed a highly sought after Wing and Engine view" That is brilliantly funny
That and the lightening round of Lounge. Lol.
If all of your videos are this incredibly well made, you'll make it to a million subscribers in no time. I really, REALLY enjoyed this video. Keep up the good work!
This was by far the best tripreport I have ever watched. Well done my friend.
7:04 I love the originality! Dude, you are great at these videos!
Finally one of these reviews with a bit of humour!!! Great job.
this is so great. Found this channel two days ago and I’ve now seen all of your videos. I just checked CZcams for the day and I find this. awesome
knut jonsson eller hur, man blir beroende!
This guy deserves way way more views 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Oh I have never laughed so hard at an airplane review video. Bravo man. This was the best video!
I LOVE Turkish Airlines ! Both economy AND business class are AMAZING 😍
I watch this video for a number of times and can't get over it particularly when you mention "food food food food food food..." I love it. :D
By far my favourite travel blogger! TK are great. One of my favourite airlines. I generally always seem to place a good 73% of my basing on their food offerings though so probably why Turkish feature so high.
Wow this is the best trip report i've yet to discover. Very nice surprise I will definitely be checking out some other videos of yours
I am so glad I have found your videos, they are significantly less dry and tedious as pretty much anyone elses and you always manage to include so much more information.
Hot towel: *exists
Turkish Airlinies: Hippity hoppity you are now my property
First time seeing your flight review and I subscribed IMMEDIATELY.
Very VERY good, detailed work and loved your hilarious narration!
Your attention to all the essential details is amazing and so greatly appreciated. You are truly the Best at Airline/Flight reviews in my opinion and You get my highest praise indeed. Many thanks.
Your humor and wit make your travel vlogs stand above others. Keep up the great work.
I travelled Turkish airline in 2019 biz class from JFK and back and the service onboard is fantastic as is the biz class lounge at Istanbul at the old airport. The new airport was still under construction. Will recommend to everyone.
You are HILARIOUS and you made me feel quite poor🙂 Turkish Airlines service is AMAZING, every single flight I've had with them was great!
I usually find myself skipping through trip reports, but I watch all of yours straight through. The commentary (and humor) is absorbing, the video is bordering cinematic, and I appreciate your discerning attention to detail. Your channel has a bright future!
Your edits are fantastic. I love what you are doing with directional maps and the rest. Awesome work.
Very interesting review of the Turkish Dreamliner mate! Your channel is gaining so much attention! Great work. Oh and P.S. am I the only person who records voice overs BEFORE putting a video together loll it seems like everyone else records their voice while watching the post-edited video they made haha. cheerio
Thanks man! And - I do a weird combination of both.
This is an amazing trip report! Definitely subbed :)
I love your smooth AF transition
So glad we found your videos. Very informative and love your sense of humor. Keep up the great work
This is my favorite wow! Amazing food & the most elegant in-flight service!
I really enjoyed watching. Thanks so much and keep em coming. Good job!!!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This is the second trip report I have seen from you Mr V V and I must say once again I enjoyed the presentation and your sense of humor really complements the video. Well done!
Thank you! Your voice is very soothing and you are very well spoken. Love your style of humour too. Keep up the good work.
Great sense of humour. Keep the videos coming!
I really loved the wing reveal with "Ocean's Eleven" music 🕺🏻, I also enjoy almost everything about your videos by the way 👌🏻🤓 Keep up the great work 😎
You have done a great job! Your airline experience review videos are tasteful, well paced, informative, and enjoyable to watch. In my opinion, you make the most practical and comprehensive videos I have watched on CZcams. Thank you and keep up the good work!
This is the second one of your videos that I've ever seen, having stumbled across another one earlier today and I think I will subscribe. Your style of review is absolutely delightful.
10/10 yet again I appreciate your content so much pal x
very entertaining video. you're giving the top aviation vloggers some serious competition here. 太棒了
Another delightfully eloquent and fun video. Looking forward to more. Thanks!
I’m obsessed with your videos. Truly excellent photography and I love your dry wit.
as a headphone geek:
DAAMN THEY PROVIDE DENON?! Its one of the best headphone brand.
Your content is so high quality you need way more attention
A beautiful rainbow at 01:06, yes I am also in an agreement to the lovely colour palate Turkish chose. Those puns at 20:38 and 20:50 are just on the spot.
Great editing! I miss traveling so your vlogs really helps. Keep up the good work.
One Word. Excellent. This review makes me want to hop on a TK flight in the near future.
Oh man, so true about these pre-flights videos! And the one with Morgan Freeman too! Now I have the LEGO song stuck in my head... It's a party in the sky with turkish airlineesss...
loveFrAd lol me too
The lego song made me thank Allah for noise canceling headphones
Your sense of humor and personality made me smile throughout the whole video. Loved this video, thank you for putting so much effort into it. Can't wait for new videos to come. Keep up the good work! Xoxo
Your info-graphics are amazingly professional and detailed. Very structured commentary and it keeps me interested.
0:57 wow! that is a beautiful shot. I appreciate all the work the goes into making this video
You are literally hilarious. Your transitions had me laughing out loud!! Thanks for posting videos!
Absolutely love your sense of humor, i'm glad I came across your channel
Worth subscribing, you give the proper information which is needed for first time flyers and better than other airline reviewers
That leftovers joke though 😂🔥 Turkish Airlines is amazing btw ✌
Flew with a lot of airlines, my favorites were Turkish Airlines and Emirates, but Turkish Airlines were the best by far, the service and especially the food was just👌
My hubby showed this to me this evening. You have a great dry commentary that just cracks me up! I've subscribed and look forward to watching more of you!
That lounge lightning round was hilarious, and to be frank, all I really needed to see to get a feel for it. So glad I found this channel!
