The secrets of Turkish Airlines' Business Lounge flight simulator
It is called the "Hezarfen Flight Simulator Experience" and takes up the name of Hezarfen Ahmed Çelebi. According to the writings of Evliyâ Çelebi, dating back to the 17th century, the man allegedly made a sensational flight in a non-motorized vehicle from Galata Tower to Dogancilar Square, flying over the Bosphorus.
Through the prepared flight simulator, customers in the Istanbul Airport Business Lounge will be able to retrace in virtual reality this historic flight, flying over landmarks of the Turkish capital: the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace, Büyükdere Avenue, the July 15 Martyrs Bridge and Leander's Tower. All reconstructed in 4k and with a 360-degree view.
A fascinating, state-of-the-art innovation that adds to the already sensational and highly appreciated offerings of Turkish Airlines' Business Lounge at its flagship airport, where it already boasts exclusive services such as A library, a billiards area, and a golf simulator, as well as other more classical first-class services. The area occupies 5,600 square meters and offers 765 seats, as well as housing a museum space.
To access the Business Lounge of Turkish Airlines inside Istanbul Airport, so you can try out the Turkish airline's new flight simulator and other offerings, you must be a Turkish Airlines or Star Alliance passenger on an international Business Class flight.
