Also when purchasing from the TK website, be sure that the currency that you're willing to pay is the same as the currency of your credit card.
You could simply change it from the top right corner of the page when trying to book a ticket.
Yea I tried in TRY and CAD (my local currency) but no luck...
EDIT: So here's the skinny...as I said BOTH my Visas got rejected for some reason. There was clearly only 1 seat left at this price, because when I had it "held" on expedia, the turkish website would reprice the first segment at double the original price. I would get a price jump from $2600 to $3900 on Expedia if I held the seat on Turkish.
Finally I got the price back on the turkish site and tried my Amex. SUCCESS! I didn't really wanna use the amex, but what can you do?
If a mod wants to delete this thread, as it kinda boiled down to a conversation, feel free.
Thanks for the help gang.
