Turkish Airlines has launched a discounted redemption offer for Miles&Smiles members bookings its own flights across the carrier’s global network, with 30% off the usual award rates in both Economy Class and Business Class. That opens up some great value awards, including Economy to Europe for 21,000 miles and Business to Europe for just 31,500 miles, for travel through to 15th May 2022.
While Turkish Airlines has high fuel surcharges, it also offers a discount of up to 60% for those redeeming award flights, so you can take the edge off that ‘sting in the tail’ with fuel surcharges in Economy Class from Singapore to Istanbul starting at US$70 (S$95).
Turkey is also joining Singapore’s Vaccinated Travel Lane (VTL) scheme on 16th December 2021, so it will be possible to make quarantine-free trips to and from Changi with transits in Istanbul in both directions, though the carrier’s exact VTL designated flight schedule is still to be confirmed.
