I'm trying to book a RT trip on Business from SFO to Istanbul using United miles, but the routes so far are pretty convoluted. So I'm wondering whether anyone has flown on Turkish Air's so-called "comfort" level (between cattle and business.) It's pretty reasonably priced; we cold just hop to LAX and then fly direct from there. Any opinions or experience?

We flew Turk. after the volcano ash delays from FRA to IST. Was very impressed with th comfort, food and wine.. Would fly them again.Check seat guru and see if the plane is described.

You haven't said when you are going, but Turkish Air just started flight from IAH, non-stop to IST. Have you tried a one stop from SFO to IST via IAH?

I did the hop fro, SFO to LAX to fly to IST - and I flew coach and still loved the service so much I would do it again. "Comfort has to be much better." Have fun! I can't wait to go back. Istanbul is wonderful.

@cabovacation -- how were the seats in coach on Turkish air? thanks
