Today we are flying from Istanbul to the US on Turkish Airlines,
and it's kind of a bittersweet day because we have spent an amazing
5 months in Europe, but now it's time to go home.
But first, let's show you around the lounge.
We're Jana and Brett.
Since our honeymoon nine years ago,
we’ve spent more than 24 months living and traveling in Europe.
So far, we've ventured to 25 countries, but our goal is to visit every country in Europe
and to explore every nook and cranny of the Alps.
Welcome to the Turkish Airlines Business Class Lounge.
If you're hungry, there's a restaurant,
a sandwich and salad bar, and a bunch of different chefs, too.
But don't forget about drinks. We have water, soda and juice, a coffee and tea bar.
Which uses the same brand of espresso machine I have!
And alcoholic drinks for those who really want to have a good time.
But there's so much more than just food and drinks.
There's an entire kids' zone, too, with an airplane playhouse, a lounge zone with TVs,
and a whole bunch of games and books and toys, too.
There's a cinema with a giant projector screen.
And a TV room with enough news channels to support whatever political belief you already have.
When you need some peace and quiet, you can book a meeting room,
visit a prayer room, your own private suite, or take a luxurious shower.
And when you're ready to relax, you can sit
Here
or here.
Don't forget to visit the fancy bathrooms, too.
And last but not least, there are lockers to store your luggage. Which, by the way, it's time to go.
Making videos always takes a little bit longer than we
think it will. So now we're hustling to our gate.
The new Istanbul airport has a ton of security.
We went through 3 separate security checks, and I think, like, 5 people touched my passport,
but it's okay because I'm really excited to get on this plane.
We made it to our seats. We're going to give you a tour. But first, sanitize.
Now that we are on the plane, it is time for a seat tour.
There's a big screen TV, which trust me, Jana will be watching lots of movies on that.
We have this pretty big table which comes out and then unfolds to hold all of our food and drinks.
There's a nice cushy place to put our feet.
And then we've got our side table.
There's a little nook over here to store things that you kind of want out of sight.
I have rarely been, if ever, on a plane that has power outlets.
We've got this super awesome handheld controller which we can use to control our TV.
Check out this LCD touch screen. We can use it to turn the TV on.
We can control our bed and we can turn lights on and off.
Also here we have our headphone jack.
We have these really nice headphones we'll be using throughout the flight.
We have reading lights over here that you can set to different levels.
And of course, you have the seat which lays entirely flat.
We just got our amenity kits. Pink for girls and green for boys.
Oh, my gosh, I love it. It's all girly!
Pink eye mask, soft pink socks,
a pink case with earbuds inside, a hair tie because those are always helpful.
Refreshing scented mist, moisturizing body lotion, moisturizing lip balm,
A travel toothbrush and toothpaste.
Oh, a little perfume spray and some handy stickers that you can place on your seat.
Overall, I'm pretty stoked about my pink amenity kit.
The meal service for our flight has begun. We have a grilled chicken with salad,
some hummus, there's some sort of bread pudding with assorted cheeses.
And then I'm enjoying a champagne while Jana has a red wine. Buon appetito!
And we both ordered the lamb for our main course.
We're only a few hours into our flight, but I got hungry
and look at all the snacks they brought me!
Jana is currently editing our next YouTube video, and I'm about to do some work.
And this flight even has wi-fi.
It's not blazing fast, but it's enough for me to get some work done. So I’m gonna take advantage!
Well, after some sleeping, a little bit of work,
and a handful of movies, our second meal of the flight has just arrived.
And just like that, our 12-hour flight and our 5 months in Europe are over.
I would totally fly Turkish Airlines again. The lounge was the best we've ever been in by far.
And the business class seats were amazing, thankfully, because
that was nearly a 13-hour flight.
Speaking of flights, we can't stay away from Europe for long,
so stay tuned for more adventures!
