Economy Class passengers enjoy colorful Mediterranean salads and other unique flavors from the around the world, along with complementary drinks such as whiskey, raki, vodka, wine and a variety of alcohol-free beverages. Rounding out the experience with delectable desserts, Turkish Airlines turns each flight into a veritable feast.[4]
Complimentary alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks are served on international flights alongside the rich selections of menu options that change according to flight duration and direction.
