Travel Agency In Turkey that Accepts American Express
 
I have been dealing with a travel agency in Turkey but they don't accept AmEx. The only reason I am using them is for the inter-turkey flights and a car rental.

I don't want to give up my miles --- I was wondering if anyone has used one that accepted an AmEx card? Thanks. ccc

Pasha Tours gets generally good reviews here, as far as I can recall.

Their New York office has an 800 number that you might call to ask whether they take AmEx:

(800) 722-4288 or 4280

Thanks Eloise, but I am almost certain Pasha Tours does not take AmEx. You did read that I said I only need the agency for a good rate on a car for 6 nights and inter country flights though right? Thanks. ccc

Amex are used widely at big touristic shops for bigger purchases.
Otherwise noone wants to pay %18 tax and 6% amex commission. So thats a bit though one. Good Luck

I booked my tickets from Istanbul-Kayseri on the Turkish Air website, paid with my Visa (don't remember what all credit cards they accept), and will pick up the tickets at the Attaturk airport. You might check and see if they accept AX.

We leave for Turkey 5 weeks from today . . . can hardly wait!

I'll be watching for your trip report and have a good trip.
