Turkish Airlines. Description, air fleet. Turkish Airlines A330 Turkish Airlines

There are only 200 aircraft in the Turkish Airlines fleet, of which 58 are Boeing 737-800.

The most numerous type of aircraft of the aviation company, which is why it is often seen on Russian flights.

The aircraft has two cabin configurations.

They are very similar and differ only in the number and quality of seats next to each other in business class. There is an essence to analyze in detail only one idea, which is seen much more often, and we will touch on the second type of aircraft indirectly.

Ask an airline employee for advice

If it is possible, carefully study the diagram of the aircraft on which you will fly.

Do not take seats in which the seats do not recline or are limited in this.

Do not take places near restrooms, kitchens and other technical rooms at the very end.

1 rub. - the legroom is slightly reduced due to the partition. The proximity to the kitchen can also cause a little inconvenience.

5 rub. - usual business sequence, but the proximity of a noisy economy is not very comfortable.

6 rub. - first row economy. There are no folding tables in these seats; the flight attendants bring them while the food is being served. Also, it is forbidden to place hand luggage on the floor; you will need to put everything on a shelf. We will see several significant details from the advantages. Firstly, no one will recline the chair. Secondly, a screen is a partition between classes. Based on this, there will be a little more free space for the knees and legs.

7A and 7F - there is no porthole on these sequences.

11 rub. - the backs of the seats are blocked in these places and have only a vertical position.

12 rub. - the backrests are blocked, but the distance to the front sequence is slightly increased. It will be much more ergonomic for your knees and legs.

14 rub. - standard economy seats with a big advantage: the distance to the seats in the front rows is increased. These are the most comfortable seats in the economy cabin. But there are a certain number of restrictions: you cannot block the passage to the emergency hatches with hand luggage. Passengers with animals and small children, passengers with disabilities and elderly people are also not allowed to board here.

28D - proximity to the kitchen will cause some concern.

28 and 29 r. - they are indicated in red in the diagram. The seat backs rest against the wall and do not recline. Proximity to the on-board kitchen and restrooms also has a very negative effect on a pleasant flight. There are always a lot of people here, they create queues. The door to the restrooms keeps closing/opening. You can hear the sound of the tank and everything. Register for these sequences at worst.

The second aircraft configuration is slightly different. There are only 3 sequences (6 seats) of business class, along with this, business appeared by blocking in the middle of increasing and sitting the step between sequences. There are no more comfortable seats available.

Economy starts with sequence 4. All sequences have access to portholes. And so everything is the same.

A few general points about the placement of seats in the Boeing 737-800 - their advantages and disadvantages.

1. Seats that are located next to the window have the advantage that it is possible to observe through it during the flight (this, of course, depends on the time of the weather and the flight). If you fly at night, this advantage does not count. Also, your neighbor will not disturb you if he wants to get up.

These places have one drawback - it is not very comfortable to leave it yourself. Therefore, if there is no need to go to the toilet quite often or you are going to sleep the whole flight, choose seats by the window.

2. The seats, which are located near the aisle, have their own advantage - it is very easy to get up from it if you need to go to the toilet. The disadvantages are that the neighbor may be disturbed if he needs to get up. Flight attendants with trolleys and passengers who pass through the cabin to the toilets and galley can also interfere. Based on this, if you are flying with a child, you will most likely have to go to the toilet quite often.

Or you yourself have a need to go to the restroom more often, then choose from the edge of the seat.

is a wide-body long-haul passenger aircraft manufactured by the European concern Airbus SE.

The Airbus A330-200 is capable of carrying up to 380 passengers and transporting them over a distance of up to 14,390 km.

A shortened modification of the A330-200 was developed somewhat later than the model and became a worthy response to the dominance. The fuselage length of the A330-200 is 4.8 meters shorter than that of the A330-300. Accordingly, the maximum number of seats was reduced to 380. However, the flight range was increased by 2,600 km due to the installation of an additional fuel tank. The A330-200 program officially started in November 1995, and commercial operation of the airliner began in April 1998.

In the process of creating the Airbus A330-200, all the achievements and new technologies of Airbus were applied. For example, part of the fuselage structure was made of composite materials, which made it possible to reduce the weight of the aircraft. The avionics and control cabin were unified with the and series: the cabin was equipped with a Fly-by-Wire digital flight control system, joysticks (sidesticks) instead of steering wheels, as well as LCD displays.

Airbus is currently offering a new modification of the A330neo airliner (New Engine Option) with more powerful and fuel-efficient engines, as well as an improved wing design.

A330 family:

– an aircraft with a flight range of up to 14,390 km and a capacity of up to 380 passengers.

Turkish Airline is one of the largest European airlines. It is the flag carrier of the Republic of Turkey. The head office of Turkish Airlines is located at Istanbul International Airport, named after Ataturk.
The route network of Turkish Airlines is represented by 220 destinations around the world. In addition, the company's aircraft also fly within the country. These are forty-two different directions.

In addition to the base airport, the company uses auxiliary passenger transfer points. These are so-called hubs, which are located in the same city as the head office. Turkish Airline uses Istanbul Esenboga Airport as such auxiliary points, as well as the capital's air harbor. Sabiha Gokcen.

Currently, the company operates 333 Boeing and Airbus aircraft of various modifications. The average age of Turkish Airlines aircraft is approximately 7 years. This indicator allows us to say that the company owns the youngest aircraft fleet of all European countries.

It is worth noting that it is not for nothing that Turkish Airlines usually receives only good reviews from passengers. After all, it has already been recognized as the best European company three times (in 2011, 2012 and 2013). In 2008, it became a full member of the largest global alliance, Star Alliance.

What characterizes Turkish Airlines today? Reviews from those who have used its services say that it is service and safety, quality and impeccable work of each employee. At the same time, it is worth emphasizing the fact that the cost of tickets for this airline can be compared with the prices offered by domestic carriers, and sometimes they are lower.

History of creation

The founding date of the Turkish Airlines company is 05/20/1933. It all began with the formation of the State Department for the management of air carriers, which began to function under the Ministry of Defense of the state. Already in August 1933, the company began to provide passenger transportation services. However, at first these were only domestic flights between Ankara, Eskisehir and Istanbul.

In September 1937, the airline added three De Havilland D.H. biplanes to its fleet. 86B. Three months later, a fourth plane appeared at her disposal. All aircraft operated on domestic routes. These were flights connecting cities such as Ankara and Istanbul, Eshisehir and Izmir, Adana and Diyarbakir, as well as Kayseri.

In June 1938 the company changed its name. It began to sound like Devlet Hava Yolları Umum Müdürlüğü - abbreviated as DHY.

Turkish Airlines entered the international market in 1947. Then passengers were transported from the shores of the Bosphorus to Athens. The next stage of the opening of long-haul flights took place only forty years later. Then the company began transporting passengers across the Atlantic and to the Far East.

After a major reorganization that took place on February 20, 1956, the company acquired the status of a corporation. It was then that it received its current name.

In the 60s - 70s of the last century, this air carrier experienced its rapid development. At the same time, Turkish Airlines acquired for itself the most advanced airliners that existed in those days. And just ten years later, long-haul aircraft became the pride of its fleet, which made it possible to fly on long-distance international routes.

In December 1990, part of its shares, amounting to 5%, was sold. Somewhat later, the government decided to sell another 23% of the shares. This was done in December 2004. Two years later, the state parted with another 28.75% of the company's shares. Today he owns 49%. 51% of shares are privately owned.

Company today

What reviews can you hear about Turkish Airlines at the moment? This company is distinguished by increased attention to the technical condition of aircraft, excellent training of maintenance and flight personnel, as well as providing first-class service to passengers.

Today this air carrier is the third largest in Europe. At the same time, they operate about 1,000 flights daily to various destinations. It is worth saying that, according to experts, in the first half of 2012 this company captured almost 4% of the entire world market. At the same time, it rose to eighth place in the list of the largest air carriers on the entire planet.

The activities of Turkish Airlines remained at their best even during the financial crisis. On the contrary, while doing business in a tough recession, the carrier has managed to focus its operations and make some fresh decisions. This includes membership in the Star Alliance and increased attention to air transportation, including concern for the health of flight attendants and pilots.

Characteristics of routes

Airplanes of Turkish Airlines (Türkiye) land at two hundred and twenty airports in one hundred and eight countries around the world. Most flights, whose duration does not exceed three hours, are operated to countries in the Middle East and Europe. But besides this, Turkish Airlines has mastered transatlantic flights, the final destination of which is the largest cities of Canada and the USA, as well as a number of countries located in South America.

Turkish Airlines flights to Japan and Southeast Asian countries are considered a priority for the company.

Turkish Airlines carries out transcontinental transportation using wide-body aircraft A-340, A-330 and B-777. The company also operates in Russian directions. Its route network includes cities such as Voronezh and Kazan, Sochi and St. Petersburg. Passengers are also delivered to Moscow airports.

Classes of service

Passengers purchasing Turkish Airlines tickets can choose any flight comfort for themselves. In total, this carrier offers three classes of service, including:

1. Economy class. In salons of this category, the company offers comfortable chairs with an adjustable footrest. In addition, it is not surprising that passengers who bought Turkish Airlines economy class tickets leave the most positive reviews about the comfort of the flight.

After all, between the seats of such a cabin there is increased legroom of 78 cm. In addition, all seats can recline.

The footrest and headrest can also be adjusted. Economy class seats are equipped with power sockets. According to reviews from passengers, it is very convenient. After all, sockets make it possible to use gadgets throughout the flight. Such cabins also have an on-board entertainment system. Individual screens are connected to it. During the flight, passengers can choose from a huge list of any movie, show, game, and also listen to their favorite songs. During the flight, the company provides free set meals. Its menu includes a large selection of quality drinks and dishes.

2. Business class. Turkish Airlines provides its passengers who choose this category with salons equipped with comfortable chairs with massage modules.

In addition, the seats are equipped with a reading lamp. Turkish Airlines Business Class provides its passengers with the opportunity to close the partition, which allows them to create personal space. During sleep, these chairs can easily be transformed into a full-fledged bed.

In this case, the flight attendant will provide the passenger with bed linen, which also includes earplugs, an eye mask, lip balm, and socks. Everyone flying business class has a personal screen connected to the in-flight entertainment system. Using the touch panel, you can view various new music tracks, feature films and documentaries, the choice of which is huge. The entertainment system also provides the opportunity to relax by becoming a participant in your favorite game. The in-flight meals in such salons are developed by the best chefs in Turkey. The menu consists of dishes not only of national, but also of world cuisine.

For those passengers who prefer business class, the company offers welcome drinks at the beginning of the flight. When serving lunch, porcelain dishes are used (in other categories - plastic).

In addition, the advantage of purchasing a ticket for a business class flight is the opportunity to use separate counters when checking in for a flight at the airport, as well as waiting for an invitation to board in a special lounge where meals are provided. Such passengers are the last to board the plane and the first to leave upon landing.

3. Comfort class. Anyone who has purchased Turkish Airlines tickets can fly in a cabin with comfortable seats (there is an extended interval between them). The main feature is the width of the seats. It is 49 cm. The seat backs can comfortably recline up to 22 cm. Individual touch screen monitors in comfort class salons have a diagonal of 27 cm. There is a function for connecting an iPad or iPod. Passengers are offered a wide selection of drinks and dishes.

Aircraft fleet

A distinctive feature of Turkey's civil aviation flagship is its constant and dynamic development. The long-term plans of this air carrier include the development of new long- and short-distance routes, improving the quality of service, as well as regular renewal of the aircraft fleet. Thus, by 2020, Turkish Airlines expects to receive one hundred and seventy new aircraft. This will make it possible not only to update the youngest aircraft fleet in Europe, but also to significantly expand the geography of routes, covering most regions of the planet.

The Turkish Airlines fleet, as of November 2016, consisted of 333 aircraft, the average age of which was less than seven years. As noted, this Middle Eastern carrier’s fleet includes aircraft from only two manufacturers. These are companies such as Boeing and Airbus. Thus, the company's air fleet includes:

14 Airbus A319-100 airliners operating flights to Europe and domestic routes;
- 29 Airbus A320-200 airliners, used in the same direction as the previous model;
- 66 airliners flying on domestic routes and in the Transcaucasus;
- 28 Airbus A330-200 airliners, flights of which are planned to Europe, the Middle and Far East, Africa and North America;
- 30 Airbus A330-300 Turkish Airlines aircraft landing at airports in the same countries as the previous model;
- 1 Boeing 737-700 aircraft, which is used on domestic flights;
- 76 Boeing 737-800 Turkish Airlines aircraft, which are used not only on domestic, but also on short- and medium-haul flights;
- 32 Boeing 777-300ER airliners delivering passengers to London and Singapore, Chicago and New York, Tokyo and Hong Kong, Beijing and Los Angeles, Sao Paulo and many cities in Europe, the Middle and Far East, Africa and North America.

In addition to passenger aircraft, the Turkish Airlines fleet includes ten cargo airliners of the Airbus A300-300F and Airbus A330-200F models.

Buying tickets

According to customer reviews, it is not for nothing that Turkish Airlines has the title of one of the best in Europe. Purchasing tickets for its flights will not be difficult. This can be done on the official website of Turkish Airlines. However, according to reviews from passengers, this is not always possible. And then, in order to fly on this carrier’s plane, you must personally visit the Turkish Airlines representative office. Its employees will help in difficult situations and solve a number of other problems that arise for clients. The company's representative offices are located in many cities of Russia, Ukraine, as well as other countries that were formerly part of the USSR.

Offers for regular customers

Turkish Airlines has developed a special program called Smiles. It is intended for regular passengers. Its main difference is the presence of club cards offered to holders such as Classic Plus and Elite Plus. Program participants are given a unique opportunity to earn miles with the help of those companies that are partners of Turkish Airlines.

Among them:

All Star Alliance member carriers;
- some hotels;
- a number of car rental companies.

Clients who own a Classic card can earn miles, choose a menu, register themselves, etc. Anyone who has accumulated 20 thousand miles in their account can use the Classic Plus card. With its help, you can carry additional unpaid baggage, as well as use CIP lounges during flights on domestic flights.

Those passengers who were able to earn 40 thousand points move to the next level, called “Elite”. Such a card provides such privileges as a significant 50% discount on a business class ticket for the second passenger, as well as double points accrual for those who purchase a business class ticket.

The pinnacle of such a reward program is the Elite Plus card. It is issued to those clients who were able to accumulate 80 thousand award miles during the year. Such a card has such advantages as issuing an “Elite” card for the client’s relatives and friends, as well as the right to upgrade the flight category without additional payment, which is provided twice a year.

Additional services and services

A day before the flight, the passenger has the right to order special meals for himself. This can be done on the Turkish Airlines website, where about twenty sets of various types of meals are presented. This could be a lunch for babies or children, a vegetarian menu, including Asian or Indian, which does not contain dairy products, as well as a lunch prepared only on a plant basis. The passenger has the right to order ethnic food for himself.

This could be a kosher, Muslim, Hindu meal, etc. The menu of this airline has a fairly large selection of food for those who have health problems. Thus, a passenger can order a low-purine, low-protein, and diabetic lunch. If desired, lunch is served during the flight, containing dishes without vegetable proteins, low in fat, as well as salt-free and lactose-free dishes.

For those flying long-distance or ultra-long-distance routes, the “Chef” service is offered.

Hand luggage and baggage

Every passenger inevitably faces the question “How much stuff can you take with you?” Turkish Airlines rations baggage allowance. A certain registered weight can be transported free of charge. Moreover, the specific norm depends on the transportation tariff and the route of the airliner. Information about this is usually indicated on the purchased air ticket, so you can familiarize yourself with the rules before your trip. For example, to all countries except Burkina Faso and Chad, Benin and Argentina, Angola and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Gabon and Ghana, South America and Guinea, Canada and Cameroon, Nigeria and the USA, Senegal and Mali, Mauritania and Cote d'Etat Ivoire, the minimum you can carry:

In business class, up to 30 kg of luggage and take with you 2 pieces of hand luggage no more than 8 kg (each);
- in comfort and economy class up to 20 kg of luggage and up to 8 kg of hand luggage.

Baggage allowances also apply to children under two years of age. They do not exceed 10 kg, and hand luggage - 8 kg.

Currently, the company has changed baggage allowances for those passengers flying from Odessa to Portugal or Greece, Germany, Italy or Spain. For those who bought tickets in economy and comfort class it is 30 kg, and for business class it is 50 kg.

An interesting fact is that in 2014, the Turkish air carrier increased the baggage allowance for passengers who bought an economy class ticket to 50 kg for one week. Such generosity was due to the fact that at that time a shopping festival was taking place in Istanbul. In honor of this event, shopping centers offered 70% discounts on their goods and were open around the clock.

Plane crashes

Over the entire history of the existence of the Turkish carrier and its aircraft, there have been four crashes during international flights and eighteen during domestic transportation.

Some Turkish Airlines accidents are described below. The first of them happened on February 17, 1959. A Turkish carrier’s plane crashed at London Gatwick Airport. The cause of the incident was thick fog, which prevented a normal landing. There were 16 passengers and 8 crew members on board the plane. 10 people survived this disaster.

On March 3, 1974, the plane crash of Flight 981 in France claimed the lives of 346 people. The cause of the crash was a design error.

On February 25, 2009, a Turkish Airlines plane crashed while landing at Amsterdam International Airport. The crash killed 127 passengers and 7 crew members. The cause of the tragedy was the failure of the radio altimeter.

The Airbus A330-200 is one of the representatives of the A330 group. Compared to its colleagues, it is considered the shortest aircraft. There is a spacious cargo compartment under the passenger compartment. The A330-200 is used for flights over a variety of distances - from short to very impressive. The flight range reaches a maximum of 13,400 km. The Airbus is very popular among transport companies and passenger carriers.

With a relatively small size, the liner has two cabin models: a two-class cabin, capable of carrying 300 people at a time, and a three-class cabin, consisting of economy, first and business class, and designed for 253 people.

One of the largest Russian carrier companies, Aeroflot, successfully uses the airbus A330-200 for flights from Moscow around the world. Let's take a look at the air showroom layout and figure out which places are worthy of attention and which ones should not be taken if possible.

Business Class

Seats intended for business class ticket holders are located from rows 1 to 6. Each row consists of 6 seats, which are arranged in pairs on both sides and in the middle. The seats in these rows are very comfortable and can recline 180 degrees, allowing you to take a horizontal position. In addition, the row spacing is quite wide. But despite everything, this class also has its shortcomings.

Row 1 to 4 located very close to the kitchen, this can cause discomfort due to fuss and various odors.

Row 5 is located directly from the restroom, which is why it can also be very inconvenient.

Row 6 located close to the initial one, that is, the 11th row of economy class. This row contains mounts for bassinets, so your neighbors will be passengers with babies.

Economy class

Economy class seats are located from rows 11 to 37.

On rows 11 to 24 There are standard economy class seats with reclining backs, but due to the partition in front of them and the monitors mounted in the armrests, the seats cannot be considered comfortable enough. Also, large monitors that are located near these seats and do not go off even at night can prevent you from falling asleep.

Row 23 located directly next to the toilet rooms, the constant movement of passengers and other possible troubles do not allow this row to be considered comfortable.

Seats A, C, H, K on row 24 have an advantage over others due to the close location of emergency exits. Due to this, the space for legs and for moving around the row increases. The disadvantages include, again, the close location of the toilet room.

Seats D, E, F, G on row 24 also cannot be considered very comfortable due to the presence of large monitors that are always on, as well as the possible proximity of small children - there are mounts for bassinets on this row.

From row 33 The fuselage of the Airbus begins to narrow; this is not very noticeable, but it can still cause some inconvenience. Sometimes there are huge metal boxes under the front seats for storing equipment, and this limits the free space in the front.

In row 34 seats D and G protrude into the aisle a little more, so other passengers and flight attendants may “stumble” over them.

Row 35 not very convenient due to the fact that the distance between it and the previous row is less than standard.

Rows 36 and 37, as well as 23 are located near the toilets. The choice of the extreme places of these rows is not the best for this very reason.

Modification for NordWind airline

The fleet of another major Russian carrier uses the Airbus A330-200. Nord Wind (North Wind) is one of the top ten Russian transportation leaders and is focused on flight accessibility. But, despite this, the company’s liners are equipped with 24 luxury seats. Economy class is represented by 279 standard seats. Basically, all seats are equipped with multimedia monitors, except those located next to emergency exits, but they have more legroom than others.

Modification for ifly airline

Many charter companies are putting the airbus A330-200 into service. Among them is the Russian company IFly. Two Airbus A330s fly under its logo.

The layout of the passenger cabin of the airliner used by iPhone can have four layout options:

The total passenger cabin capacity of the Airbus 330 i fly is 387 people. The air show is not divided into classes. Seats located at emergency exits: 36A, 36C, 36H, 36K.
First class is allocated 19 luxury seats, the rest of the seats are standard, their number is 268 pieces. Emergency exit seats: 36A, 36C, 36H, 36K
Standard seats are enough for 263 passengers. First class is designed for 48 people. Additional comfort is created by the increased space between the seats. Seats located at emergency exits: 26 A, 26B, 26J, 26K; 39B, 39J; 40D, 40F.
There are 251 standard seats in the Airbus cabin. The first class cabin has 18 seats. Seats located at emergency exits: 24A, 24B, 24H, 24K.

Modification for Turkish Airlines

Not only representatives of Russian air carriers actively use the Airbus 330-200. The leading representative of Turkish airlines uses several such airliners on their staff, with a capacity of 250, 281, and 286 passengers at a time. The number of passengers directly depends on how many seats are in business class. The more seats there are, the fewer the total number of people the plane can take on board.

Most often, representatives of Turkish airlines use the cabin layout with 250 seats. With this scheme, business class occupies rows 1 to 5, and economy class starts from rows 5 and 22. Please note that the most comfortable seats are in business class, but if you can buy a ticket to row 5 or row 22 in economy class, you can also get a good deal. The reason for this is the sufficient distance from the toilet rooms and the absence of the previous row - as a result, increased legroom.

The Airbus 330 200 is firmly at the forefront of the passenger transport market, especially when long flights are required. It owes its primacy to the degree of comfort that its developers provided for any interior configuration.

Its long-term demand is explained by its flight performance, ease of maintenance and cost-effectiveness. The production of this airbus does not stop at the moment.

Turkish Airlines is the national carrier of Turkey, based in Istanbul. It flies regularly to 206 destinations. The main hub is Ataturk International Airport. The airline was founded in 1933. Since 2008 it has been a member of Star Alliance. In addition, Turkish Airlines has subsidiaries: Anadolujet, B&H Airlines and Sun Express.

The carrier's fleet, as of 2014, consists of 228 aircraft (excluding aircraft of subsidiary airlines). These are mainly brands such as Airbus and Boeing.

From 2012 to 2014, Turkish Airlines won the title of best airline in Europe.
