A FLIGHT OF FANCY

-

I FLEW with Turkish Airlines on, a three-and-a-half-hour journey that leaves you with just enough time to watch a film and enjoy the compliment­ary menu.

A wide selection of in-flight entertainm­ent included all the newest movie releases, with something for every age and taste.

Food is by luxury catering company Turkish Do & Co and there’s a variety of options to suit all requiremen­ts including vegans and those with allergies.

They cater for the likes of Formula 1 teams along with the ATP Tennis Masters and volleyball champions – so you know you’re in safe hands.

I was lucky enough to be upgraded to Business Class, which also meant I could enjoy the No 1 Lounge at Birmingham Airport.

With a fully tended bar and a view of the runway, it offers the chance to chill before your gate is called.

It’s free for Business Class flyers but anyone can enjoy the calming environmen­t for an extra cost. Adult admission is £28 and children £18 when booked online in advance.

If you leave it to the last minute, you can pay £35 each on the door.

Returning home, we made use of the Turkish Airlines Business Class Lounge, with endless food options.
