Thanks for posting this. I saw Lucky posted about this as well.  Have you seen anywhere about what routes will be getting these new planes?
The only thing I recall seeing is that they hope to start service to Australia.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

THY.com seems to have issues. Not showing anything (revenue or miles) when I search JFK-TLV.

I don't see why there shouldn't be. IST Ataturk has a few.

Looks gorgeous, we'll have to see in person pictures when it actually opens but seems like they did a good job.

If only they would have KSML options there....

When I asked the guy in the lounge if they have kosher meals, he used an interesting wording (translated from turkish to hebrew) of assur. Which would likely mean he was saying that it's not possible. Instead of saying that they dont serve it.
