ive got to get from Australia to Turkey to view, photograph & experience *again* the most remarkable feeling..seeing..*other than childbirth* of the Total Solar Eclipse in Turkey, in 2006. I would like to travel the surrounding areas for 3 months, and many goals to achieve before i can go.. But i start by manifesting Dreams ~ into Reality, today.

Atlasjet, a Turkish Airline

Atlasjet (or Atlas Jet) is a low-fare Turkish airline owned by two large Turkish tour operators, Etstur and Öger Tours.

Like Onur Air and Fly Air, it started as a charter airline flying tour participants from Europe to Turkey. Now it welcomes the general public to its flights, challenging the traditional national carrier, Turkish Airlines, and serves several internal Turkish routes.

Atlasjet operates daily flights from Istanbul to Adana, Ankara, Antalya, Bodrum, Dalaman, Erzincan, Izmir, Malatya, Siirt, Trabzon, and Van, as well as twice-weekly flights from Istanbul to northern (Turkish) Cyprus.

Fares on most of its flights are a
bout YTL89 (US$67), with some of its late-night fares as low as YTL49 (US$37)—almost as cheap as the bus! But check possibly expensive airport transfer costs as well.

The Atlasjet website has flight info, but no fares.

For fares and reservations you can telephone +90 (216) 444 0 387, and supposedly get that information in English. (Within Turkey, this is a toll-free/free-phone number: 444 0 387.)

The Atlasjet website appears to work in the Firefox and Internet Explorer browsers, but not in Safari.

Atlasjet tickets are sold by some Turkish travel agents (though some may be reluctant to sell them because the commission is so low they may lose money on the sale).
