i never wore trousers at all. i just wore shorts at all meal times and in the ala carte. I did not see any notice telling you what to wear. There where russians in speados at tea time in the buffet. so just wear what you want.Just dont b over weight with your bags on the flight.

The tousers remind me of ia guy i met at the Susesi Hotel Belek in July .He arrived without long trousers and when he saw the dresscode outside the dining room he rushed into Belek town to buy some .He had never been in Turkey before so did not know about haggling .He took eighty quid with him ,went into the first shop he saw and asked for trousers ,the guy in the shop said certainly sir what kind of price ,he replied around eighty pounds ,the guy in the shop showed him a pair and said this is the only pair in that price range ,he bought them .After leaving the shop he discovered he had no money to get the tractor back to the hotel .He went back into the shop and told the guy he had no money ,straight away he gave him his fare back on the tractor .I.5L There in lies the lesson.
