What to expect flying Business Class with Turkish Airlines

Many of the things you have to pay for when you fly economy class are free when you fly in business class. Extra bags, gourmet meals, tons of legroom — they’re all included in the business class experience.

Baggage allowance

Tempted to pack that third or fourth pair of shoes for a fancy night out? Feel free to overpack. Turkish Airlines business class passengers can check two pieces of luggage weighing up to about 70 pounds (32 kilograms) each for free, plus bring two pieces of cabin baggage.

Priority boarding

Don’t worry about fighting for overhead bin space. In business class, you’re among the first to board the plane, so you’ll have plenty of time to get settled in.

Lie-flat seats

What better way to travel than flying across the Atlantic Ocean in a seat that turns into a bed? No matter which plane you’re on, you’ll have a lie-flat experience in the airliner's business class. There are individual power ports to charge devices, noise-canceling headphones and even massages are available on certain aircraft.

Some of Turkish Airlines’ newer planes, like the 787 Dreamliner, offer aisle access from every seat.
