AVOID THIS AIRLINE AVOID THIS AIRLINE! Me and my partner have been waiting to receive our compensation which we're owed under EU 261 law (now UK 261) after we missed our connecting flight (due to 'technical errors' on our first Turkish Airlines flight) and were subsequently put on two additional flights with a different airline and arrived at our destination 8 and a half hours late. This took place 3 MONTHS AGO and Turkish Airlines have still not paid us the money that they (eventually) acknowledged that they owe us and are now completely ignoring our feedback messages regarding this. This is clearly not an acceptable way for an airline to act and I would strongly advise anyone from ever flying with Turkish Airlines. We are now looking into taking Turkish Airlines to court with the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) - I advise anyone else experiencing the same thing to also do this as they should not be allowed to get away with this!

CRIMINAL! My girlfriend was refused boarding at the airport in Phuket because "she did not have a return ticket with Turkish Airlines". This was certainly not a reason to refuse boarding but we decided to book a return anyway just to avoid ruining our travel plans. Just prior to completing the transaction we were told that our seat had been given to another passenger. This was at the airport 1hr 10 mins before flight departure. They had no right to refuse boarding and when we did as they said they moved the goal posts yet again. I suspect the flight was over booked and they were looking for reasons to reject passengers. To make matters worse they are standing behind there story and have not refunded the ticket - despite the ground staff saying that we could get a refund by contacting customer service. At best this is just awful customer service and worst it is a criminal offence. I personally will not be flying Turkish Airlines again and strongly urge other would be clients to look elsewhere. What a shame since I used to enjoy flying with this airline.

I'll never fly Turkish Airlines again I'll never fly Turkish Airlines again. I'm giving them two stars because some of their airport staff and flight crew are lovely and competent. Following are some of my reasons: -For the 14 hours before my flight, their customer support was unresponsive. I finally got through, and the representative assured me that my flight had _not_ been cancelled. At the airport, it turned out that the flight _had_ been cancelled. A Turkish Air employee had the nerve to then say I should have provided a phone number in order for them to notify me. I HAD provided a phone number and received no calls or texts from Turkish Air. -Due to the consequences of the cancelled flight, a Turkish Air employee advised me to submit my receipts in order to get reimbursed. I followed their procedures obediently and never received my money back. Responses took weeks, and employees were barely literate in English. After several months of resubmitting my request, I gave up. One possible explanation was that the receipts didn't include some of the impossible details Turkish Air required them to include -- details that receipts don't typically include. I wouldn't know, however, because the representatives never explained why my requests were rejected. -On my flight, the pocket of the seat in front of me was stuffed full of trash. Classy.

Best Airlines Best Airlines, The staff is always helpful and cheerful It's the company I take the most to go to Turkiye from France. The food is always nice, I recommend 100%

My entires families baggage was lost… My entire family’s baggage was lost during a transfer and Turkish Airlines cheated on my compensation claim! We were left in Malaga with zero luggage and the weather conditions were terrible. Nobody contacted us to tell us when cases would arrive. We Called their customer service who told us to go and replace essential items and that there was no limit on compensation - just to be sensible. We did exactly that and then filled out arduous claim process/form. They then paid only 30% of claim stating I agreed to a lower figure. Nonsense. Disgraceful and unfair treatment by an airline who claim they are high quality. Absolutely terrible experience for whole family, I have not used airline since and travelled further and longer to use other airlines! I have written to CEO and no reply yet, which says everything!!! I will start legal process soon.
