Turkish or Emirates into Europe from Bali

[MEL_Traveller]

No 777 in the mix I'm looking at. The price of $4k seems about right.

But the timings of the transits will kill you! 3am, 4am Will mess with the body clock.

For me, both J products are excellent so the choice would be which one gives more things to do on the layover. DXB is only good if you have enough time to grab the metro to the gold souk area for shopping. IST now has a metro but it would still take a long time to get to the interesting areas of Istanbul, doesn't seem like you have enough time. I would choose the longer flight to give more sleeping time, so TK. Their food is amazing for plane food! I find the Turkish FA's very friendly but I do speak a little Turkish so they seem to appreciate that.

One option is Emirates but spend the night at Dubai Int Hotel built into the airport to break up flights and get some bed sleep.
