GBDon't waste your money with this… Don't waste your money with this Airline! I have now had two consecutive trips from Riyadh to Milan Bergamo (via Turkey) cancelled at short notice. I will NEVER waste my money with this company again. On both occasions (9th Feb and then 5th April 2024) I have had to spend significant amounts of money to fly with other airlines at the last minute. The only option for compensation is a refund of the original ticket and if you ate something in the airport this might be covered. I have spent literally hours on the phone to their customer services and inputting evidence of my out of pocket expenses caused by Turkish Airlines "Operational difficulties" onto their web platform - only to be told time and again by the same standard email response that my claim cannot be refunded. @Turkish Airlines. DONT OFFER FLIGHTS YOU CANNOT RUN! SIMPLE. Utterly useless company and awful customer service.

GBRip-offs and cheats - do not book with them This company is a complete disgrace - do not travel with them under any circumstances! I paid £256 for seats for my family to be together over 4 flights. The day before my flight when I came to check-in they had all been removed. Their call centre are useless and could do nothing - and I spent £40 on a premium phone line for the pleasure of no service at all! They are now passing me from pillar to post and refusing to refund my money. They've offered me 55 euros if I drive 35 miles to get it! I saw people losing their upgrade and being refused boarding as the plane was overbooked at Istanbul also, so if you have a flight already booked with them ensure you get to the gate early! And don't pay for an upgrade at the airport as they were refusing them and moving people back into standard at the gate. If you don't have a flight booked with them then please don't, it's not worth it, even if they are cheap. They are a monstrous organisation that doesn't care about customers at all. I will be complaining to the CAA and ATOL and would suggest others do too

TRThe worst airlines ever The worst airlines ever - total scam, and phishing They said business calss is refundable - when I tried to refund, they refused to give the money back Their customer support is useless, they keep transferring me from one agent to another - and each agent said different things - all they were lies, and no help provided

ATOur check-in suitcase was severely… Our check-in suitcase was severely damaged when we got it back. Turkish Airlines makes it next to impossible to file a complaint. This is not okay – big suitcases are expensive and we can't use it anymore now - basically lost 120€...

CYI'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.
