Looks like the TK Social Media team did not waste any time

From TK's Facebook Page:

Sky Interior design includes sky blue interior lighting, wider stowage bins, new passenger service units and much more... A more comfortable flight in a more elegant environment. 35 new Boeing 737s will be at your service until the end of 2015, four of which will join our fleet this year.

Any idea how many planes TK will be getting and what routes they will be on?

They will receive 2 shortly and they are going to Africa: DKR, DAR and NBO.

What is the seat pitch of J on these?

Is it similar to J on the 330? Our a/c for DAR-IST has been changed from a 330 to a 737-900.

I have a return flight on this new 737 in Feb (IST-ACC)...I was very upset with TK when they announced the equipment change....come on, a narrow body for a 7 hour flight?...but being an aircraft nerd, I went forward to try it...I will be in C, (2D)... this move is risky for TK, ET will be joining *A and their fares are generally cheaper and their routes are good too...I remember horrible flights on B757 (SFO-HNL) too many people up in the aisles blocking the service carts, Y class bathroom runs through F...I imagine this happening on these Africa flights with frequency and more congestion in the aisle.

Nice Pics I'll post after my flight.

Does anyone know if TK intends to deploy a 739 on the ISB route ?

I'm so tired with these crappy 12 year old 738s.

6:15 hrs.flight time to IST and than another 3:15 hrs.to Europe without a decent Bizz seat & IFE is gross

Well to my amazement I found out that according to GDS, TK will use the 739ERs on several domestic and Balkan routes in between their runs to Africa. TK's new 738s will feature the new cabin product, however, it will take time (2015) for all deliveries to be completed. Until there is some kind of cabin standardization; it's pot luck I'm afraid.
