Flying Turkish to TLV

[mrwhale]

I am looking at tix for Jan to TLV with Turkish. What's it like davening on these flights? Do people take "precautions" not to look overtly Jewish?

Please share your experiences.

Thank you!

I showed up to the airport in JFK and it was a black and white, hatted, minyan factory the whole way to Israel. (It was yeshiva start time). One guy I met had on a cap, tshirt, and sweatpants and he was embarrassed his mother didn't let him fly in black and white because everyone else was.

Though there is rumors a mekubl said you shouldn't fly Turkish recently. He said you'll see why.

what does that even mean - we have magical people in our Jewish community now who predict stuff?

We used to have plenty, now not so much. But still yes. More complicated than just "yes", but that'll do for now.

Yea, you didn't hear?
