turkish airlines so cheap?

Turkish Airlines is so much cheaper than the rest? Why is this and you would you recommend them? Thanks

Look at the timing. Often requires an overnight coming and going in Istanbul. Nevertheless, a lot of people do recommend them and like them.

I've flown with them several times - normally from UK, via Istanbul to Southern Africa. They're fine - no complaints.

I have flown Turkish a lot, and I like them. I'll pick Turkish over Delta any day (and I live in Delta's home city).

Their prices aren't as cheap as they used to be. I am not sure, but I think that Turkish Airlines gets a government subsidy, and may be government owned. They use it to encourage tourism and business in Turkey.
