Any tips on getting that TK2 flight? Or is it simply not open to A3? (Which I find weird since ExpertFlyer can see availability)
If your transit flight is the next day, then A3's system won't able to see the flight, you will have to break it into 2 segments and feed it to the agent. The booking fee and tax will be around 210 Euros.
