Thank you for the info.
Can you please elaborate though?
Is it good service? Do they offer Kosher meals? Is it typically all Arabs on board?
I went through Istanbul 5 weeks ago and I'm going again tonight. I wore hat but I was with a yarmulka wearer. Seemed regular, although I'm not gonna put on tefilin there, but that's my personal comfort,
the lounge there is beautiful, I think staying in the airport should be 100% OK. kosher meals are the regular kosher meal as on every plane. I flew comfort class, but I believe their business class is amazing
