Turkish Airspace


I should’ve ideally written this from Turkey around twenty days back. This year we discovered Trabzon and the region around it ,Discover !! no .. it was there asking to be visited. I am glad I answered its first call. Its funny how a place sometimes owes its quotient of attraction to the place you are getting there from. I used to always enter the city of Istanbul from Mumbai and fall in love with it everytime I took the bus ride from the Airport to the Hotel. This time however I was coming from Trabzon ,Uzungol and Sumela in Turkey. Istanbul was just another city !

As I write now the map on the flight monitor shows Istanbul still 90 minutes away but Trabzon is to my right ! Yes it’s the Turkish air space .. I have never flown from west to east over Indian air space ,but I guess the feeling would be the same. Home is right under ! The frequent flier miles was what I used to fly this airline for ,but I guess its that and the sound of Turkish !
I had set to write this one about Berlin and my travel to Central Europe but I would like to keep it to where I am .. Turkey !
