Alas it’s difficult, as if they can claim closer they can presumably stay in the place they claim, so any claim in (say) Turkey for asylum in the UK would be summarily rejected.

Any claim in Turkey for asylum in UK would be summarily rejected any way because you have to be in territory of country you're seeking asylum in to make a claim. I disagree it's difficult though. Ensuring there are means for people to seek asylum is actually pretty simple with right will to do it

Well they can’t just fly as the airline would reject them, hence the dangerous routes they have to take.

Exactly, which is why removing carrier liability fines would be an immediate and effective starting measure to ensure people can seek asylum more safely.
