CAI-IST
I found this thread only after performing a Google search. My recent CAI-IST flight on TK's Business Class was dry and that took me by surprise. I had no idea that TK had such a policy - I'd thought maybe only flights to the Arab countries in the Gulf? Just bumping this thread to prepare those planning a TK flight to/from Cairo.

AFAIK, IST CAI has been dry forever, though my experience is on the 7am/9 am flights, so it's not something I've particularly noticed.
Egyptair is is dry throughout its network and is a code-share partner on the route; so TK's attitude could be formed around that.

Are there fights on any carriers where premium classes have access to booze but economy passengers do not? I know payment might be required in economy, but I thought alcohol availability held throughout the aircraft.
