a friend said i have to register my details before i travel. a quick google and i found this:
http://www.thomascookairlines.co.uk/app/answers/detail/a_id/367

ive never heard of this. has any one here heard of it?

Yes, it's been in force for quite a while now and it's really easy to do - just follow the link

Hi mick i had the same and had to go in and complete this apparentley this is now required on all flights T**** C*** sent me a email stating that API was required as part of the booking hope this helps mick

Its exactly the same as youve had too do for Spain for years. If you book at Travel agents they just take photocopy of yours passports and do the rest for you. However if you book on-line you just follow link and fill in as requested.

thanks guys.
been travelling to turkey for years with H4U and never came across this. booked with T C travel shop and they said nothing about this but it is on the front sheet of the travel confermation.
going to do it on line this after noon. problem is, theres 16 of us a logistical nightmare. its bound to turn into an afternoon party. pity theres no sun today they were only here last night. last one went about 4am hick#!

Hope youre not too hung over coz you need to get the details exactly right as they appear on passports - cant afford to get a single letter or digit wrong!

do you need to do it every time you travel to turkey.

Yes, everytime, unfortunately.

Ive been travelling to Turkey for 6 years and this is the first year I have had to send these details.Im travelling with Jet 2 booked with On The Beach so it must cover all companies.Easy to do online Have a great holiday everyone.Im away to Icmeler on the 28th of the month. Cant wait.

so easy to do online. we had to do it last year and this year.

do u have to enter this information coming back or just going out

No j.ust going out

Hi, does this apply to all airlines going to Turkey? - going with Turkish Airlines

yes applies to everyone nothing to do with airline

just to set a few things straight on this subject .we flew this year with T C and i forgot to fill in the api online before we flew , but read the small print on the tickets and it said all the info needed could be found when we check in at the airport and thats what happened , we got there and back with no problems . was wondering if people dont have access to tinternet then what would you do ? personally we panicked for no reason so wonder what all the fuss is about.
