I am looking at booking a business class flight from Budapest to Atlanta on TK and I see they have a Z fare that is "Business Flexible". My trip is not until the end of this year but this fare is pretty good so I am wondering if anyone can for sure tell me if this fare is 100% refundable if I were to cancel let's say a month before travel?
From everything I have read in the fare rules, I *think* it should be 100% refundable but I just want to be super sure before I book it.
This is the page I was looking at
https://www.turkishairlines.com/en-i...ns/fare-rules/ It does say subject to specified deductions, but nowhere does it say what the deduction amount or % is.
EDIT: I dug through the Z fare rules on Matrix ITA and found this...
