Turkish airlines is actually a great airline. i flew with them from London-Ankara-Male-Colombo just a month back on their b737 and a330. you get an amenity kit a filling snack in this...its so sad that skystrax did this to them...so sad...rlly rlly sad.
i miss flying Turkish Airlines. They are really a great airline. Good food service too. Flown them DXB-IST-MNL and it was on time. thanks for sharing this video.
Turkish has been one of the best airlines I have flown on in recent years. The IFE, meals, service was a step above the rest. This is why I don't trust Scamtrax anymore. Ataturk airport was a nightmare though, I'm hoping the new airport will be better.
Great report as always Felix! You really do a wonderful job with recording and editing these, the quality never ceases to amaze me. Keep up the great work!
I've been to Turkey. I was reluctant the first time I visited the country for a holiday. I was amazed at how modern the country is, the people are friendly and the country itself is awesome.
Funfact: Mogadischu was the place where the Lufthansa 737 (Landshut) hijacking ended when the SEK stormed the aircraft. The aircraft called Landshut was still in service after years and then flew as last with a brazilian cargo airline. It then was standing on an airfield abandoned for years... But then, the german goverment buyed the 737 to have it on display in a museum. To show that Germany helps to defeat terrorists. And is a country which helps others.
Actually, the plane's last owner, TAF (Transportes Aéreos Fortaleza), was a very troubled airline in the few years when it existed, and it brought the plane first for passenger service. Then TAF thought it would lose less money if it carried parcels for the Brazilian postal service, and its planes were converted to cargo. So, it was not exactly a "cargo airline", or at least not all the time - it wasn't one in the beginning. I don't know how the German government defeated the Brazilian courts and red tape, because when an airline goes bankrupt in Brazil, judicial proceedings take many years while all creditors, employees and such sue for the remaining assets in the extremely slow Brazilian courts. In the meantime, whatever assets (including planes) are impounded, nobody can touch them, and they can't be sold or maintained, leading them to finally (sometimes after 10 years or more) be sold as scrap, as lack of maintenance renders the planes useless otherwise. I do know, however, that the German mechanics had a hard time and worked for months to make the plane airworthy again. A final remark: the plane was not exactly on an "airfield" either: it was at Fortaleza-Pinto Martins International Airport, a full modern international airport serving a metropolitan area of 4 million people and with flights to Europe on KLM, Air France, TAP and Condor, and soon also on Air Europa.
Thanks for showing us the world is changing once upon time we are great but we make it again and we can't forget every country who helped our government or our people
Great take off vision and sound !!! Turkish keep us waiting here in Australia for direct flights to Istanbul...one day I hope this will indeed happen !! Solid review of what is an excellent airlines and I agree with some of the other comments as to Skytrax downgrading this airline which always seems (to me ) to get excellent reviews !! Well done !!
Haven't heard any rave reviews about the new Ankara airport. Fog related delays, lots of walking between terminals and concourses, very few power outlets, and wait times for boarding. Guess it would improve some degree when more airlines come in. But no reason to shut down Ataturk. Both airports can survive.
You should try longer ones, like the ones to DAR, ZNZ - also TK.. or Copa/Gol ones. THey all have flights on 737 going over 8h. THe best one is Philippine airlines MNL-SYD/MEL/BNE on the A321 (in biz they have lie flats)!
@@simply_aviation what's the difference when compared to the new 30" a350 released by AF or compared to the b757 medium haul ones? This is the direction for the moment and even worse in the upcoming years (max, a321 lr, xlr, b797 etc). They're far more fuel efficient and it makes sense from a business perspective. In 20-30 years we're most likely going to have the twin-aisles only on (currently considered) ULR flights! :) Thanks for the video!
Hello felix awesome video as always. I was wondering what is your job because you travel to so many different places in such short time. I will love to have a traveling life, airplanes are my passion 💓
Same here, I want to know what he does for living by going to all these 'exotic' places lol My best guess is he is working for UN agency based in Vienna 🤔
Could you speak a little on travel to Somalia? The US gov. travel site has it at a Level 4 (do NOT travel) warning, because of the safety threat there. Were you there for an actual stay or was this just another layover while in transit to somewhere else? VERY interested to hear about this!
Watch the video till the end...there you’ll find the answer to your question 😉 Flying via Mogadishu is safe, no worries. But if you leave the airport you need armed guards etc for your personal protection (as foreigner).
We know u only stay at the airport some of the viewers say it's not safe but ig u staying at the airport it's the safest place but thats a great to come our country am from somalia awdal region I have ever never seen a war imagine some people don't trust but realy am never seen a war o heavy weapons the world shows the negative but there is a great ones and so many foreigners come even some our university teachers are americans kenyans ugandese and arabs

My favorite airline Turkish I love you 🇹🇷 from Germany

An amenity kit in economy, that’s definitely a 3 star airline, good grading system Scamtrax
Well I got the same on Qatar, turkish. Wait...
This is sarcasm
In Singapore airlines same
And Lufthansa is apparently a 5 star. Seems like someone's being bribed.
Gooner Joe turkish airlines dont give amenity kit and pillow and blanket on long haul Flights
MORE TURKISH AIRLINES (and you must visit the new airport in istanbul)
Yalçın Karakan that is the new airport
They've done it a few times already such as their Singapore to Istanbul flight with THY.
Walker Minerva TWD it’s Atatürk
TTC Nova Bus LFS 8788 FAN looks like the new airport

Luckily Emirates does😀

They give you the BEST views of the ramp and aircraft.

THE SMOOTH LANDING IS ON POINT.
That's shocking for a737-900!

Awesome vid, but why did you go to Somalia??? Isn’t it like super dangerous
Some parts of somalia is safe
If you have security you are totally fine. I went there a year ago.
Do people speak Creole in Somalia?
Felix likes to go to places off the beaten path. It's his specialty, while David and Simon go to more mainstream places.
@@davidcollegerosemont noo, we have our own language. Look it up!
Yakutsk-Simfetopol 9h 30 min. . And that? + 1 hour in Moscow

Masha Allah love Turkey ❤️🇹🇷from Somalia 🇸🇴💙
Omg I Love The Lego Mobile!😱😍😂
Who loves it when they post.
We also get this amenity kit on our 6.5 hour flight from Lahore to Munich. And the food is always delicious and ample. I love this airline.
What plane is that at 9:51 because its neither a c 130 nor the a400m so what cargo plane is it
I belive it was a c-160, the french have a transport regiment stationed in Djibouti
@@thomas9374 thanks
Did you stay in Mogadishu or were you continuing to somewhere else?

I´ve read that TA wants a direct Istanbul-Sydney flight with their new 787s
Turkish is for me one of the best airlines. Most of the time decent food and the legroom is very good compare to other European carriers.
Isnt it supposed to be British or Lufthansa ?their a five star airline while Turkish is three star.based on skytrax
ks and p British doesnt even serve fucking food in economy within Europe
I love Turkish airlines!:)
A really great airline and a really great video:)
thank you for making this wonderful clip

Greate airline. I flown them CGN - IST - GYD with the a321 and than with the a330
From somalia 🇸🇴❤️
I’ve been to the New Istanbul Airport multiple times and it’s really good. Great video:)
Perhaps the most exotic destination in the world.
Felix, how are you not afraid of going to such places. Somalia is in the middle of war, that’s all over the country. Do you even leave the airport?
It’s clearly not „all over the country“ as I didn’t experienced any security issues while on ground in MGQ Airport
I was reading a lot about the situation in Somalia. In Mogadishu they sometimes attack convoys or tourists. It’s not a great situation there.
When i see an A380=2:25
Dude
Idiotttttttttttt
Who else likes their boarding music ?
This start is from the istanbul atatürk airport isnt it i thought it closed
This was filmed in January, long before it closed.
How do you know that the video was made in january
After that the plane is going back to Istanbul via Djibouti?
Wow Skytrax 3 star lego movie 2 Safety cabin Awsome!!
I like how you stay on the 737 for that long while parking
Felix, were you able to get a Somalia stamp in your passport even though you were in transit ?
No unfortunately not.
