Nice info! I wonder when they open Manila? non-stop or via Hong Kong making the Hong Kong flight 2x/daily?

Any news about Ulan Bator?

Istanbul-Kabul-Istanbul
 

Does anyone have any more news on the Istanbul-Kabul route, announced on 21 January for some time in 2010? This would seem overdue, given Turkish Airlines' strong presence elsewhere in Central Asia...

Any word / rumour when they intend to start the route in 2011 ??

Any news here? Especially MNL would be good news :D

It seems that the IST-MNL route is always few months ahead(for few years now) and i wonder why it hasn't materialized yet.

IST MNL is what I need as well... I hate TGS at IST but let's just say they are a class act compared to Aeroflot at SVO. (Similar status both carriers)
