Flights, hotel and transfer
Travel can be arranged for you as a single coordinated itinerary. What it is not is a package bundled invisibly into a treatment price — those are quoted separately, deliberately, and this page explains why that is in your interest.
What can be arranged
Everything from the flight out to the transfer back, and any part of it individually. Many patients arrange their own flights and ask only for transfers and appointment coordination, which is entirely reasonable.
- Flight options proposed around your treatment dates, including a second trip where the plan requires one
- Hotel or serviced apartment near the practice in Çukurambar
- Collection at Ankara Esenboğa on arrival and return on departure
- Local transfers between accommodation and the practice for each appointment
- A written treatment itinerary with dates, times and expected duration
- Accommodation and transfer arrangements for a companion
Why travel is quoted separately
A bundled all-inclusive figure makes it impossible to tell what you are paying for the dentistry. Separating them means you can compare the treatment cost against a quotation from home on equal terms, arrange your own flights if you find better ones, and see exactly what the trip costs. It is a less impressive-looking number and a considerably more useful one.
How the dates are set
Treatment first, travel second. Your plan determines the appointment sequence and the intervals between stages; flights are then proposed around that. Where a treatment requires two trips separated by months of healing, both are planned from the outset so that the second is not an unwelcome discovery.
What the proposal contains
A written itinerary you approve before anything is reserved. Nothing is booked on your behalf until you have confirmed it in writing.
- Flight options
- Proposed, priced, not booked without approval
- Accommodation
- Walking distance from the practice
- Airport transfer
- Arrival and departure
- Local transfers
- Per scheduled appointment
- Quoted
- Separately from treatment
While you are here
You have a direct contact in your language for the duration of your stay. Flights are delayed, appointments occasionally move, and questions arrive at inconvenient hours — the point of the arrangement is that none of those become your problem to solve in a language you do not speak.
What is not promised
Travel arrangements are coordination, not a tour operator’s guarantee. Flights and hotels are subject to the terms of the airline and the property. Nothing is automatically included in a treatment price unless your individual offer states so explicitly, and any offer that appears to include travel will say exactly which parts.
Common questions
Are flights and hotel included in the treatment price?
No. They are organised for you if you want them, and quoted separately. If a specific offer includes any travel element, it will be listed explicitly rather than implied.
Can I book my own flights?
Yes, and many patients do. Send us the dates once booked so appointments and transfers align with them.
Do you arrange the visa?
No. Entry requirements depend on your nationality and are your responsibility. Check them with the Turkish authorities well before travelling.
What if my flight is delayed?
Contact us as soon as you know. Appointments can usually be moved within your stay, which is one reason the first appointment is never scheduled for the arrival day.
Is travel insurance included?
No. Arrange your own travel and health insurance, and check specifically whether it covers planned medical treatment abroad — many policies do not, and that is worth knowing before rather than after.
The itinerary follows the plan
Send your case first. Once the treatment plan exists, a travel proposal can be built around dates that actually work clinically.
