I got the Anatolian Sky brochure today and they are saying that CTA are flying Glasgow to Ercan from 1st April to 31st October. Monday flights leaving at

07-20 and returning at 01-35.

Only wish they would start the Belfast route again too.

No, they list separate flights via Istanbul from LHR, Stansted, Birmingham, Man

& Dublin with Turkish Airlines. Glasgow is on the other one with CTA.

Hi Ballyboffin



Yes I agree with you flights from Belfast would be fantastic and all year round too. Not stopping in October.



I did stay in Istanbul overnight booked the Ataturk airport hotel as you dont have to pay the Visa fee if you stay at the airport.

anatolian skies

the worst company we have ever had dealings with.

we went to turkey with them, hubby got 5 star al a carte food poisoning from their hotel there.

yes owned and managed by them.

there customer service skills are non existant.

keep this in mind when booking with them!

Maybe not on the website as yet, why not order the brochure and see it in black and white yourself Kenny or give them a call.



Message 6/ Hi Yvonne, 'bout ye' you are well I take it ? Even the summer flights from Belfast would help, we can dream anyway. I wonder if the North Cyprus Tourist ass. will be at the Kings Hall next week, they were there last year ??????????? They probably came just to see Norn Iron!



Message 7/ firestarter. We have in the past booked flight only with Anatolian Sky, via Belfast in the good old days, never have had a package with them though.

Ballyboffin Do you have an address for An.Sky, or tel. no. I used to get

their brochure at old address so would like to see what's on offer. Friends

in Tyneside would also prefer to fly from Glas. than Manchester. Hope you

get some flights from Belfast too.

Yes there are flights to Larnaca,but from Glasgow to Ercan ,no.



I have already phoned the reservations number and its the woman there that told me they have no flights from Glasgow.I didnt mention it was in the brochure but have ordered one anyway.



She tells me anyway that if its the CTA timtable that decides the matter.



Quite logical I suppose from her point of view, if no CTA flights timetabled for Glasgow, then doesnt really matter what the brochure says.
