There's probably other destinations valid on this fare that I haven't checked. Great fare, although seats are angled and visa may be an issue.

Incredible fare, thanks. If you work the dates, can get a 2 hour layover on the way back. Not sure if that skirts the visa issue for USA citizens in Turkey, but hoping/assuming it would!

Also noticed they fly the lie-flat A330 to Berlin and back on certain flights, but it can also make for a very long layover.

Just booked it on Expedia, cannot get through to Turkish Airlines site from here in Cairo!! Funny about that. $1340 for ATL-BCN Feb dates, now trying March dates to Berlin

great fare, thanks OP!

Was hoping for similar to Tbilisi or something else in the Caucasus, but to no avail. I really enjoyed my trip to Baku last year though and would recommend it.

Belgrade works at $1,380. Did not see any other standouts.

The next best I saw after Berlin, Barcelona, and Belgrade at the incredible prices were Zurich at $2,100 and Milan / Brussels at $2,300. Not "mileage runs", but I guess pretty decent deals if you actually need to get there.

Not sure why people think this is non-lie-flat. This should definitely be lie-flat, I prefer TK C on the 77W but it's basically the same seat on the A330.

Tbilisi is pretty painless to get to from Baku.

Thanks OP, booked one!

The pattern here seems to be all B destinations...

Obviously not. TK sends its A332s to ATL, instead of the A333s which have flat beds.

Question

[QUOTE=newflyer530;29093056]Obviously not. TK sends its A332s to ATL, instead of the A333s which have flat beds.


TURKISH A333s have flat beds. What are the A332s equiped with?

Angle flat... why don't you google "turkish airlines a332 business seat" and then click on the "Images" tab...

evisa for Azerbaijan (Baku) is very simple for $30 and 72 hours processing time. JUst make sure you spell your first/middle/last names 100% correct or it will be denied.
