Cheap Turkish Airlines tickets !!!
« on: August 10, 2018, 07:03:01 PM »
Because whatever happened with Trump and turkey regarding the dollar and the Turkish lira,  if you book flights now with an American credit card through Turkish lira on Turkish Airlines it will be at least 16% cheaper, For example a flight that cost $760 would cost 614 through the Turkish lira

Interesting. Should work with anything bootable in Russian Ruble as well

According to some reports on flyertalk, the conversion rates are skewed when actually having made the purchase.  VPN'ing into Turkey might help solve this, but not enough time has passed that I would be buying flights you otherwise wouldn't.

Funny, I thought this would create a CAI-like situation that we saw years ago when their currency took a nosedive.

Did anyone find a Turkish OTA or any OTA that you can pay with TRY?
