Smart Recommendations

Best Time to Book

Book award flights for Turkish Airlines to Europe in mid-January to early February, as this period typically sees lower demand and increased availability for routes like Istanbul to London or Frankfurt.

Sweet Spot

You can redeem 90,000 Turkish Airlines Miles for a round-trip business class ticket from Istanbul to Bangkok, which typically costs around $2,500 in cash.

Routing Trick

Instead of booking a round-trip from New York (JFK) to Istanbul (IST) directly for 9,000 miles, consider booking a multi-city itinerary that includes New York to Istanbul (IST) and then Istanbul to Bangkok (BKK) for 8,000 miles, saving you 1,000 miles while still reaching your destination.

Avoid These Fees

Avoid flying with Spirit Airlines on routes to Las Vegas, as they often charge up to $65 for carry-on bags and $55 for checked luggage, significantly increasing your total travel cost.
