DO NOT PAY MONEY!!!!
Now there should be a sharp fall in price. I heard from people from the travel agency that now in travel agencies there is a line of those who sell vouchers, and the second line is those who buy them cheaply.
So paying full price now does not make sense. See if they can throw off, if not - urgently find out in other agencies, maybe you will go for half the price.
You have to use the situation to your advantage.

kolyan_cat, in Ukraine there are no cheaper tours, there are no mass refusers from tours. All tour operators have a 100% penalty for canceling a booking. I know the situation from the inside. Only one tour operator canceled the reservation without penalty and only in the first few hours after the coup attempt in Turkey. Stopped it during the day. In vain you hope for massive good offers of last-minute tours until September. Today there are no good cheap tours and no mass refusers

To have no illusions. On the formal side. There are no cancellations. Before the issuance of an official ban by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs - cancellations only with fines. The Foreign Ministry is waiting for the reaction of other countries. If there is a ban, then, according to the experience of Russia, operators will offer to use money for other directions at any time. Refunds only by court with large time and money costs. They also have a crisis. Need to resist.
This is the formal side.
The factual side is that nothing at the resorts has changed since Sunday. Erdogan needs maximum legitimate powers. And that's all that has changed. All apologists for strong power welcome this. The operators have already reported everything - everything is calm in the resorts.

Musya, I agree with 100% fines, but in this case, the author of the question has not yet paid for the trip, i.e. the situation is unique - he is not in danger of losing money. Accordingly, you can look around and evaluate whether there are vouchers from the same "refuseniks".

turkishmoda, so far everything is calm. But when it becomes restless - no one knows this, and will not tell you in advance.
Now it's calm, but in 5 minutes a terrorist attack is not ruled out.
Since the situation in the country is restless, then I think it is worth refraining from traveling.
The rebels can get to the resorts.
Of course, it is a pity that such events are now taking place in our beloved country for recreation.
I wish you a peaceful sky over the head of all Turkey!!!

i-love-turkish doesn't the situation in Ukraine scare you? No, here I am really surprised by our people: 3 years in the war, 3 years in the state "oh, martial law may be introduced tomorrow", but it's "terrible to fly somewhere, what if there is a terrorist attack." People, yes, we in Ukraine have been living on a powder keg every day for 3 years. Just what is near and every day gets used and is not perceived. But the fact that someone has "it's scary." No one in the same way can be sure of the future both in our country and in any other. The world is not stable right now. To date, in Turkey in the resort regions, nothing is worse than ours. For some reason, it doesn’t scare anyone to go on vacation somewhere near Mariupol to Azov (which is already closer to the zone of our conflict), to relax on a spit in the region of the border with Crimea, it doesn’t scare anyone to go to Crimea, but it scares them to fly to Turkey to Antalya or Marmaris .

It is safe to stay in the hotels themselves. There are security guards, etc. The most important thing is to fly out of there on time and safely. Especially with children.

kolyan_cat vouchers from refuseniks have always been in any year. But this is not a mass phenomenon even now. Refuseniks are mainly those who, due to family force majeure, cannot fly. Such tours are sold at a maximum discount of 200-300 dollars from the tour for the whole family. There are no steep discounts and the possibility of "cheap rest" there. There is now such a thing as a "deal of the day" from the hotel (a tour where one day is sold at a lower price). But in good hotels there now everything is still below 500 dollars. there are no offers for the tour per person for 7 days. For 300 dollars. already completely left hotels. ). There are last-minute offers with a departure from Kyiv for the next 3-5 days (seats are closed within an hour after the offer from the tour operator appears), when the tour operator first held the seats on the plane of its main air carrier for more expensive tours and you need to close empty seats before departure. There are no very good hotels at bargain prices either. There are budget options. And there are no refusals at bargain prices.

The introduction of a state of emergency in Turkey can simply bring some discomfort (yes, the police can stop buses with tourists to check documents; yes, it may be inconvenient to go on excursions around the country; yes, it is possible. The police will ask you to check your documents. But if you are driving legally; if you are driving to a hotel, and you are not going to fly on excursions to Istanbul-Israel), then I don’t think that you will feel very uncomfortable at all now. Now my relatives have been resting for a week now (and during the coup they were also there). Nothing at all unusual for a tourist, everything is as always. Turkey is interested in the stability of the tourism industry. Especially now. Therefore, they will make every effort not to scare away tourists and not create increased discomfort for them.

musja7... let me shake your hand (c)

I always say to alarmists ... what if a brick is on your head? why do you go without a helmet every day?
If it's scary - sit at home ... this is purely your choice. it makes sense to shift responsibility to strangers ....?

musja7, what kind of war are we talking about? Do you personally have shells and bullets flying over your head (unless, of course, you are from the Donbass)?
There is no war in Ukraine, yes - there were military clashes in the east 2 years ago. It's just called AT operation. And you know why they don't want to stop it.
And it was not by chance that a state of emergency was introduced in Turkey (and this indicates a serious situation), which was not the case in Ukraine.
And so you imagine, you flew to rest in Turkey, and there they introduced the VP, closed the airports. Do you have a business or a well-paid job in your homeland or ... What will you do in this case? You will lose everything! Is it worth risking all this for a vacation in Turkey!?
If you are not bound by the above reasons and you have the finances to live in Turkey indefinitely, then please rest!
A person who is going on vacation to a country (where a state of emergency has been introduced) must himself soberly assess his opportunities and risks in all cases, that is, he must be prepared for the worst, but hope for the best)

If you don't understand allegory...that's your problem...
A brick can fall anywhere.
Are you even aware of the procedure for introducing VP ??? and what happens to foreign citizens at this time??? Egypt has experienced a bunch of revolutions ... a plane crash ... so what? And just like you, they scared everyone. If you don't want to, don't fly.

i-love-turkish doesn't want to raise a political issue here, but if you want to close your eyes and pretend that nothing is happening in Ukraine and it's just the ATO, then live in rose-colored glasses and be afraid to leave the territory of Ukraine. Because it's "safer".
ps on the topic: right now I was talking with those of my acquaintances who are in Turkey. And with those who are there on a tourist residence permit, and who are resting. As of today, everything is fine. No inconvenience.

“The adopted decision does not apply to the daily life of citizens. Its purpose is to ensure the consistent and speedy work of public authorities.”
Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim wrote about this on his Twitter account, commenting on the government's decision to introduce a state of emergency in the country. http://aa.com.tr/
No one knows how tomorrow will be either in Turkey, or in Ukraine, or in any other country in the world. Now there is no peace anywhere.
