IST to CPT
Greetings everyone. First time on Turkish Airlines forum, with a question. Couldn't find the answer when I did a search.
I am flying IST to CPT return mid August / end August in biz. Google flights tells me the flight has lie flat seats, but seat guru says angle-flat seats???? Couldn't see any info on Turkish Airlines web site. Does anyone know which one it is?
Many thanks in advance for your help.
Kind regards

I am in CPT now, arrived Sunday from IST.
22 J seats (I think) on a 330-200. Angled lie flat. There is very slight angle-maybe 10 degrees. Lounge in IST is excellent, even for the 2am depart to CPT. You won't have any trouble sleeping. TK service-food-is excellent. The footrest-storage ottoman is a nice touch. We had a 9 hour layover and stayed in the TAV Hotel airside. Expensive, but worth it.

I don’t think it’s YMMV case. A332s with angled seats are not used anymore on this route BOG-PTY-IST. Of course a flight can get canceled or swapped but this is not the norm by any scale.

Seatguru is a far less reliable resource however, it has to be said...

BOG-PTY-IST was 100% lie flat seats in the past 2 months. I think that this can’t be filed under YMMV.
