TK Face Lift By Priestman Goode
Well, it was time! TK to get a redesign of a/c interiors, lounge and check-in areas I really hope for a improved lounge in IST. See link below for details.

Doesn't say anything about the lounge(s) which is a shame as the TK IST lounge is not only way too small for the airline (consider when the new lounge opened TK flew 12 million pax, they now fly more than twice that) but the design is flawed and the food service offerings are poor.

Actually it does say that the consultancy will redesign the lounge. I really hope that they will offer better food service and more space as you pointed out. All lounges in IST are catered by BTA (subsidery of TAV), may be they should let Do&Co do it on the ground as well.

I'm excited how the new livery will look like! Good thing they did not modify the logo, THY logo is one of the best!

When will they launch the new livery?

Wow...the use of red with a circle reminds me of the NWA redtails....which of course are quickly disappearing into the "New Delta"

Wonder if the body is going to be silver too...

TC-JFU is out flying again. The new livery does not suggest any major re-branding



Lets hope the hard product on the ground in IST and the onboard enhancements will be more exciting

Was waiting for that " major rebranding" but...here it is...

Well, at least logo became more prominent...though I still prefer the older livery!

Looks like the tulip on the fuselage is gone.

I think the new colour is here to stay. Take a look at the new A330-300 of THY

The new tail design looks nice, but they could have kept the tulip.

That's right! Tail design puts more emphasis on the THY logo. Should look good on the 77W too! But they took the tulip out....not nice
