What to know
- Guests traveling with a Turkish green passport must renew their passports if the issuance date of their passports is older than 10 years; otherwise, they may be denied entry into the destination country and/or their flights by the airline from Turkey may not be carried out. In such cases, the responsibility lies with the traveler, and ARESTUR cannot be held responsible in any way.
- To avoid issues with customs officials at the border of the country to be visited due to torn, worn, wet, and/or similarly damaged passports, these passports should be renewed, and if the country requires a visa for Turkish citizens, the relevant visa must be on the new passport. Otherwise, the responsibility lies with the traveler.
- Triple rooms are provided depending on hotel availability. In triple rooms, there is an extra bed application, and the 3rd bed is smaller than a standard bed. No guarantee can be provided for 3 separate beds in triple rooms; if there is a suitable room in the hotels, it is blocked by the hotel based on availability.
