Turkish Airlines Miles&Smiles has a special program for students (both in Turkey & abroad) that provides discounts on Turkish Airlines flights, bonus Miles&Smiles miles and more. The program doesn’t state what level of student you have to be, I would assume college or university but who knows maybe high school and even lower grades of students can join as well. You have to upload proof of being a student like a student card or other document if you are not a Turkish citizen or not studying in Turkey. With Turkish Airlines flying to and from Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver, Canadian students should take note of this program!
Here is what the student program provides:
Discounts
20% off domestic flights, up to 10% off international flights and special prices on international one-way flights
Baggage Allowance
40 kg on international flights (2*23 kg on flights implementing Piece Concept), advantageous excess baggage fees on domestic flights.
Free Ticket Change
One-time free ticket change right for international flights (fare difference is applied if the new ticket is purchased for a different fare class).
Miles&Smiles welcome bonus
An extra 1000 Miles for new memberships and 2000 Miles in total
Bonus miles on flights
25% more Miles to be earned from all flights by the end of 2022

Wrapping it up
