First, you will fly with Turkish Airlines to Istanbul. Various aircraft are used, ranging from Airbus A330s with lie-flat seats to Airbus A321s with recliners. Then, you will continue on board a Turkish Airlines Airbus A350 to Kuala Lumpur with 1-2-1 seating. In Kuala Lumpur, you will continue your journey to Australia with Malaysia Airlines on their Airbus A330-900neo, which also has a 1-2-1 configuration.
Most Europeans need a visa to enter Australia. You can apply for the visa online. It’s best to apply at least 1 month before travelling. The visa is free.
Search & Book
This deal does not have an expiration date either minimum stay or a maximum stay. Departures are available from November 2025 to March 2026.
You can find suitable dates using our calendar above or with the help of Google Flights. We recommend booking directly on Turkish’s website, but you can find cheaper prices with Skyscanner. However, booking on OTAs has its downsides.
Why is booking with an airline better than with an online travel agency?
More often than not, online travel agencies offer lower fares than airlines do. We still recommend booking with the airlines directly. There are two main reasons for that:
Better Customer Service
In case any problems like delays, cancellations or missed connections arise, you can communicate directly with the airline. The airline has to take care of you because you have a contract with them.
If a travel agency issues your ticket, you may have to reach out to them first. You also depend on your OTA to forward information like flight changes instead of receiving them directly from the airline. In many cases, you may get a prime exhibition of responsibility shifting rather than problem-solving.
This especially applies to premium tickets. You don’t want to spend more than €1,000 to wind up with some budget OTA’s telephone hotline in case anything goes wrong.
Baggage and Other Fees
Economy fares not including hold luggage are industry standard by now. In most cases, travel agencies charge much higher baggage fees than the airlines themselves. If bags are not included in your fare, airlines are often the cheaper alternative.
This also applies to other things like food services, insurances or priority treatment. In almost all cases, you pay less for additional amenities when booking on the airlines’ website.

Information & Tips for Adelaide
Adelaide, the capital of South Australia, is known for its compact city center, easy access to wine regions like Barossa Valley, and attractions such as the Adelaide Central Market, Botanic Gardens, and nearby beaches. The currency is the Australian dollar (AUD), and prices are generally moderate to high compared to many other destinations, especially for dining and accommodation. The city has a Mediterranean climate, with hot, dry summers and mild, wetter winters, so packing depends on the season of travel.
