Airfare: USA to Türkiye via Canada

We've moved on from Tasmania to mainland Australia.

At present, we are camping at the Bathers Paradise Caravan Park in Esperance, Western Australia. We spent today at Cape La Grand National Park ... words fall short of describing this amazing place. (Look it up if you don't believe me. Or check out this footprint that I published earlier today ... https://findpenguins.com/8pccjefaitoru/footprin….)

But our sightseeing today is neither here nor there. At least with regard to our future plans.

Instead, let me write about what we worked on this evening ... airfare to get us to Türkiye for the first part of our fall/winter trip. Didn't anticipate making a purchase. But a good deal on business class tickets changed that pretty quickly.

We will once again fly to İzmir, Türkiye via Toronto, Canada as that gateway offered the least expensive fare. As always, there will be a layover in İstanbul before we reach our final destination.

This time, however, we will be flying to Toronto on the same day as our Turkish Airlines [THY] flight instead of the day before. Makes sense actually ... and saves money. TK18 isn’t scheduled to depart from Toronto until 8:40p. Our United Airlines award tickets from DEN [Denver International Airport] will get us to Toronto by 3:11p. Plenty of time to make the connection.

Plans for fall/winter are starting to take shape!Read more
