Turkish Airlines (Turkish: Türk Hava Yolları) is the national flag carrier airline of Turkey. As of August 2019, it operates scheduled services to 315 destinations in Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas, making it the largest mainline carrier in the world by number of passenger destinations.[8][9][10] The airline serves more destinations non-stop from a single airport than any other airline in the world,[11] and flies to 126 countries, more than any other airline.[9][10][5][12] With an operational fleet of 24 cargo aircraft, the airline's cargo division serves 82 destinations.[9][5]
The airline's corporate headquarters are at the Turkish Airlines General Management Building on the grounds of Istanbul Atatürk Airport in Yeşilköy, Bakırköy, Istanbul.[13] Istanbul Airport in Arnavutköy is the airline's main base, and there are secondary hubs at Ankara Esenboğa Airport and İzmir Adnan Menderes Airport. Turkish Airlines has been a member of the Star Alliance network since 1 April 2008.
Turkish Airlines was established on 20 May 1933 as Turkish State Airlines (Turkish: Devlet Hava Yolları)[15] as a department of the Ministry of National Defense.[16] The airline's initial fleet consisted of two five-seat Curtiss Kingbirds, two four-seat Junkers F 13s and one ten-seat Tupolev ANT-9.[16] In 1935, the airline was turned over to the Ministry of Public Works and was subsequently renamed General Directorate of State Airlines. Three years later, in 1938, it became part of the Ministry of Transportation.
Turkish Airlines has been the official carrier of several European football clubs such as Manchester United,[65] FC Barcelona,[66] Borussia Dortmund,[67][68] Olympique de Marseille,[69] Aston Villa,[70] FK Sarajevo,[71] and Hannover 96.
The company has been the primary sponsor of the Turkish Airlines EuroLeague since 2010[78] and was among the sponsors of the 2010 FIBA World Championship.[79]
On 22 October 2013, Turkish Airlines and Euroleague signed an agreement to prolong their existing sponsorship deal by five years until 2020.[80]
Turkish Airlines is the sponsor of the Turkish Airlines Open, a European Tour golf tournament played annually in Turkey since 2013.[81]
Turkish Airlines was the kit sponsor of Galatasaray for the 2014-15 UEFA Champions League and Bosnian club FK Sarajevo. Since then, the airline has continued its sponsorship of Galatasaray and has also been the kit sponsor for the European campaigns of other Turkish clubs such as Fenerbahçe and Başakşehir.
On 10 December 2015, Turkish Airlines and UEFA signed a sponsorship deal for the UEFA Euro 2016, becoming the first airline sponsor of UEFA European Championship tournaments.[82][83]
On 29 January 2016, Turkish Airlines announced its partnership with Warner Bros. to sponsor the film Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. In the movie, a pivotal scene unfolds aboard a Turkish Airlines A330.[84] That year, the airline also teamed up with a number of Turkish tourist agencies in the production of the romantic comedy film Non-Transferable.[
If Turkish Airline did not refund during 7 days call your bank and ask for section 75 against Turkish Airline and bank will refund you .
if there's no regulations in your country like in the US, they can get away with it by giving vouchers
@@Jupiterloobncj I'm not from the US but I work with an american bank and our clients dispute this airline all the time because if they cancel your flight (the airline itself not the client) they only give you travel credits. It doesn't really get refunded by Turkish Airlines in cash until the client files a dispute with their bank. And the airline only gives it back because there are regulations in the US about this. If the client won't file a dispute with the bank they'll never refund it. And i worked at 2 american banks and see this airline all the time in our debit/credit card disputes
@@chinnywanders Where can I find those regulations? Do they apply worldwide on all credit cards? Is it just a VISA thing or a Mastercard thing? Or is it by country? How do you ask about them?
Only if I knew this before
@@chinnywanders same with KLM and other airlines, KLM is especially bad tho because they try to ignore you
I never experienced any problems with Turkish airlines. 🤷♂️
Good for you
You might be lucky though but that’s not normally the case at all
@@josephalamad9647 been flying over 10 years, no problem at all.
Very typical, it never happened to me!! The fact that never happened to you, does not mean that one day you are not going to come into crossroads with their business practices like I just did. Their phone live customer service is the worst. They hung up on you. And make you pay diferencial money for stuff stipulated not to pay. Their computer system conveniently rejects your email addresses as invalid when filling up forms so they don't charge you for things stipulated not to. Everything comes to a gray area with them. But, if you flash your credit card to pay their sweet differentials for whatever. Oh, system is just fine and your email address is valid. I mean, everything is fantastic now!!
They are racist to south easterns and few westerns like Slovenia or Croatia
I do not see any scam here. It is a standard practice by Most IATA airlines for international airlines. If you buy a ticket through agent and or its a restricted ticket (not full fare) then don't expect any reimbursement in cash. The voucher is called MCO you could have redeemed it at airport desk or booked the next flight on the same airlines. I have traveled over million miles on all the major airlines and had experienced many cancellations subjected to same rules and practice. Please check the IATA rules for any international carrier.. you fill find it no different then TI.
okay Turkish Airline rep lmfao
I had similar experience when my flight was canceled and rescheduled for the next day. They gave me a voucher that I could only use at their office. The nearest office for me was 2 hours flight away from my hometown. I would not recommend this airline.
I haven’t got scammed. I flew this good airline for 100 times and I didn’t get scammed ONE TIME.
Well you are lucky because I got scammed to.
@@AlexandrosArt that might be because you didnt talk to the administration services.
I tried to cancel my flight 3 weeks prior to my flight. Had a flight planed from atlanta to ukriane. When ukraine issued a news saying that were going to close the borders I asked them to cancel my flight. Mannnn...I called them many times and couldn't speak with anyone that could speak English or maybe they were speaking and I couldn't understand. But I called them many times asking to cancel and all the people I talked they couldn't explain how was the process to cancel it. One person said you go to this site and do a review to cancel. Wtf I have to do a review to cancel a flight? I lost $910 dollars but thats ok. They will get fuck some way down on the road. Matter fact they are getting fucked with the covid 19. You lost 600 bro I lost 910.
I totally agree with you 3 times I got scammed with Turkish airline. once you give them the money, they have a hundred way to don't return and credit card companies don't have access to dispute. Thank you for letting us know how they work even there are agent's big scammer.
My flight was cancelled May 18th and got full refund back from Turkish Airlines.
Can you please tell, how long did it take to get the full refund? Like how many days/ months exactly? Thanks a lot!
@@backpackersstudiobd not going to happen lots turk Patriots making up stories 🙄
@@Worldwidewhat-wb how can you be certain
I like Turkish. My flight was cancelled and I got a full refund.
Me too
The voucher was given as an option which i chose not to take. If you don’t have the common sense to claim your money back when you have the chance&you don’t look into the ins and outs of the voucher, on your head be it.
I’m think to but the flight and I will use your experience 🙏 pray for me
Number one, never take a voucher. Number two, do a credit card dispute and get your money back.
@@walterm294 why never get a voucher?
Many thanks for sharing this to new passengers. I was considering this airline to fly but after watching your video and other guy`s video plus many bad comments about this airline, the lack of politeness and kidness of the flight attedants, the lack of responsability of the customer service, made me stop to book with Turkish Airlines.
They are super racist don’t fly with them. I encountered sever racism on there and there are many cases online.
piece baggage weighing 23 kg can be checked-in as excess baggage both for Economy Class and for Business Class. On these routes, 80 USD will be charged per piece for excess baggage weighing between 23-32 kg.Regardless of the weight and piece concept, a single piece of baggage cannot exceed 32 KG. Baggage that exceeds 32 KG must be divided and carried in two or more pieces.
That’s only written on their website
I try buying extra 1 luggage today and they are charging me 186 euro just for 23kg extra 1 bag. Why is that ?
Never ever cancel your flights or holidays booking! U may loose your deposit or whole booking if u wish to cancel after time. Let them cancel your booking to get full refund.
Avoid this Airline at all costs!! They are TERRIBLE at customer service. The only good things you hear are fluff.
My dad is scammed by Turkish airlines. When we was doing check in and giving luggage. The representative of this company removed 15,000 miles from us without asking us. We wanted to return them but without success. Even though we didn't fly in business.
My Flight was canceled,2 weeks before Due to covid. I called the customer service and within the next 12 hours the refunded my money (Full refund ) . Turkish airlines is the Best. 💗
my dad had to travel from tehran to adana to see his friend which works with him. the flight got delayed by 10 hours, the food wasnt great, the flight attendants were really tired and angry.
also after the 10 hours delay it got delayed again by 2 hours! never travelling with them EVER again
I understand your frustration. It looks to me like I am going to lose almost $5000 that I paid for a family that lives in another country. I used my credit card, and they never told me that the passengers would have to PRESENT the form of payment that was used to book the flight, which is impossible. So I asked for a refund and they said I couldn't get one because it was a promotional flight, and promotional flights are always non-refundable. I made SURE that the tickets were refundable, I was told twice during the process that they were, then they throw up different options as you go along, not telling you that you may be choosing an option that CHANGES the applicable refund policy. I'm furious and, like you, striking back the only way I know how.
@@anerzlearth1836 They insisted that I go to an airport with a Turkish airline office. There are only 4 of those in my country, and the closest one is two states away. In the end, that's what I had to do, pay $700 for a friend who is an experienced flyer, which I am not, to go with me and show them my actual credit card. I hate Turkish Airlines passionately now.
@@anerzlearth1836 The good news is that I was able to help the family in question get to their destination country 3 months ago, end of October, but absolutely no thanks to Turkish airlines. They didn't work with me at any single step along the way.
@@cherismith5707 I totally understand because I also encountered a similar problem (My son purchased my flight ticket as a birthday gift, and he lives in another state in which there isn’t a TA ticket counter at the airport, or sales office in his respective city). After reaching out to TA customer service with my concern MULTIPLE times I FINALLY received a link to download TA’s CREDIT CARD AUTHORIZATION FORM(which includes the email address the cardholder MUST use to submit the form, and attach photos (front & back) of credit card used to purchase ticket and government issued identification. Additionally, the representative and I exchanged several emails in which I explained EVERYTHING in detail concerning the payment situation and even attached the photos of the credit card and ID. He immediately went into the system to update the system to reflect the changes and was reassured that I will encounter no problems at check in. However, he still sent me a email containing the link to send to my son so that HE could send the documents to make sure its wasn’t fraud. Prayerfully I won’t encounter any problems. Cause I’m prepared to show each and every email that was shared between myself and the TA agent. I’ll let you know on 02/06.
@@GlobeTrekkingwithMzFab This airline claims to be so concerned with making sure it's not fraud, but they don't become concerned about that until AFTER they take our thousands of dollars. They make sure they get their thousands of dollars before they let us know how many hurdles we have to jump through, expensive and very problematic hurdles, to meet their requirements to make sure that WE don't get frauded, like they care about us. It's a complete joke.
Please do let me know how that went! It's a very good idea if you do ANYTHING with Turkish airlines to keep documentation of every single transaction and have it on your person when you deal with them.
@@cherismith5707 the Turkish airlines are very bad they are the worst
I don’t know what he is talking about extra weight. It happened to me that I had 1kg extra on my 2 luggages several times and they never charged me extra
I had many times over 3 kg and they never charged ..
Turkish airlines is the worst and I’m gonna make a video about how they lost my bags for over two weeks. Can I use parts of your video in my intro ??
Same way Turkish Airlines cheated me for $550, Oslo to Antalya and Return. Turkish Airlines self cancelled the flight No refund, but now demand more money from me, I have not accepted vouchers.
You are so right. They should be investigated
My diamond earrings were stolen. They were caught in front of CCTV in front of Salim Chicken Restaurant at Istanbul Airport in a second. But no one did anything and I was also getting late for boarding.....
Getting refunds is very hard, just exchange/freeze the canceled flights to a to a new flight. And for the voucher thing its not really a scam its just a old system, since turkish airlines is operated in Turkey its very easy to find offices in Turkey. Fyi offices in airports are most likely closed try to find a office in your country. And I think you were misinformed with the extra weight thing, it cost 120dolars for a new 24kg and I never heard of extra kilo costing 50$’s.
Besides, there is a purpose for the 24kg limit; its not there for you to go above it. I flew with Turkish airlines for more than 100+’s.
ye
Mate Im Turkish and I would never ever book with Turkish Airlines again. They are very greedy. Please o please stay away. I hope they change their name very soon
Thank you sir
turkish air line scammed me for 1700$
Very poor service from Turkish airline.I agree, i do not recommend to fly withTurkish airline to anyone, and I had the same experiences and they charged me $230.00 because ther way a 14 hours layover between my flight from Van to Istanbulda and Istanbul to USA, but they did not pay for it. They mostly do not speak English and they acting very mean and unprofessional.
For a night. Then after I returned, my luggage were broken and my new items were missing and one of my cartons was missing and they did not take care of it after I called them more than 20 times. Nothing take care off. Very poor service.
I had a flight with layover cancelled last winter from Istanbul back to Canada through text. I noticed online they had another flight the next day with seats available so I told them over the phone to give me the direct flight the following day and they later emailed me that it was confirmed. I never got my hotel room night back because the hotel wouldn't write me a receipt and only accepted cash, but at least I got the more expensive direct flight to make up for the lost layover time.
had a cancel flight twice in turkish airlines, i decided to ask for refund however they could not make it online even you call in customer service.they suggest me to go to the office near me and now i am waiting for full refund as they give me the papers that it will be refunded soon
Hi, its been 2 months, did TK really did what they promise to you? And are you experiencing this in pandemic times? Thanks before
@@vitra4361 yes they refund it after 30 days. they deposit to my debit card where i used to purchased the ticket before.hopefully you will have it also soon
As of December 2020, these vouchers could now be redeemed online or through the hotline; previously this was not possible. However, you could continue you to use your vouchers through a sales office. If the voucher amount is higher than the new ticket you intend to purchase, the difference would be applied in a new voucher and would be handed to you during the booking process.
@@philosopherlady434 Just wait for the 31 May 2022 deadline to be extended. I see no reason why it shouldn't be extended yet again.
Lesson learned......always go with the refund.
No miles are a great alternative too. Covid has made flights really expensive w Thy
Last time turkish airline was fine for me didn't get scammed next year I'm going again I'll see how it goes....
I cancel my ticket due to new Covid-19 rules. I bought turkish airline ticket 900$ but they refunded me only 85$.
You can trust a Turkish taxi driver more than Turkish airlines.
I’m sorry to hear about your experience with Tk but regarding your statement (3:47) it’s not only TK that Charges for overweight. All airlines does that. In addition to that the price is not always as high as you mentioned per kg. I fly TK from CPH a lot and I’ve never paid for excess weight since TK is very generous and offers 30+8 kgs which is 100 times better than all other European airlines but I know that you pay ≈12$ per extra kilogram
Yes something reasonable! Not 40$ per extra kg!
@@ahmadabdulla7282 of course he still talking about $40 cause you don't know what he feel and also it's true.
if you wanna make sure go ahead and check there website they charge 160 euro per 5 kg and if you do the math that is $39 habibi
@@samrkd640 That’s normal if you go out of the limit of the maximum weight
@@Baseem NOK129 kg. from Oslo to Istanbul or Antalya, it is about $15

Sorry you had that terrible experience. I had another experience, different but as bad. Related to their customer service, which is appalling. I lost $2,400 US. For everyone who watches: DO NOT fly Turkish Airlines
Once Turkish Airlines Ive cancelled my ticket and they refund me back to my card.
Man shut up/
Exactly the same happened to me - complete scammers. There must be some higher aviation body that they can be held accountable to. I have given up trying to get a refund I've spent more in time, phone calls and travel to the airport to their closed sales centre to justify it. This is obviously a directive to avoid refunding customers money they are entitled to. Hard to believe that they think it will serve them well in any way.
This guy probably didnt like the price or lost something due to not listening to ticket rules and now is probably deciding to trash talk them 🤣
And you're probably Turkish?
@@Baseem Nah mate
@@Baseem still dont know what this has to do lol
@@Baseem what does it have to do with being turkish? Oh wait, because everything that is related to turkey has to be bad right?
This Gentleman is absolutely telling truth. With the earthquake that just happened. I got scammed close to $700.
NEVER EVER BOOK A TICKET TO TURKISH AIRLINE.
I got a same problem
They gave me 2 vouchers for one canceled flight .plus one voucher in Euro and another one in US dollar . The problem is not solved .
Why u didn't use the voucher?
Its working with email man if you attach your ID , no need to lie with your anger 😂
The man is speaking about his own experience, so he doesn't need to lie! For what you supposed that he lies?!! You faced his bad experience with Turkish airlines?! I had some similar experience with Turkish airlines!
@@Mehdi77230 most of the youtuber requesting free or discounted ticket or at least upgrade from airlines.When they face with negative response the matter goes out of the way. We dont know the reality or beckground thats why i found his comments very biased.
@@ca3867 I never spoke about in UA-cam! But believe me at once I faced almost the same bad experience with Turkish airlines! So I got very disappointed too. I understand that Turkish airlines is trying the best to do. But they have a major problem, it's the workers with a very poor level of English language! So misunderstanding and wrong acting will be always! I guess this is not good for them at all! Something else: in many cases really they make a strange changing of theirs policies, conditions and terms of purchase!!! I remember, between 2008 untill 2014 I was flying with Turkish airlines. The quality of service was much better than now. Do you want that I shock you with something?! I purchased a ticket from the office of TC airport, the officer excused that he cannot print out my ticket because Turkish airlines doesn't have many to buy a new one!!! With all this the same officer gave me a set of wrong information, witch caused me many troubles at the arrival to Istanbul airport!!!!!!!!
During covid there were all sorts of issues here in the UK British Airways got into hot water with issuing vouchers (always insist on a refund). Last year i purchased a ticket with Portuguese airlines TAP. They duplicated the booking and charged me twice. They acknowledged the mistake and said a refund had been issued. After two weeks and many emails still no refund so i called American Express and they credited my card immediately.
Turkish airlines is actually very good.!!
I would suggest to buy travel insurance next time, and always try to dispute payments with your credit card company. They would gather complete details and then initiate investigations, which in many cases end up being in your favor.
I personally had no such financial troubles with Turkish airlines, but had troubles with many of their flight attendants who act in very rude way and change your seats the way they like without prior notice.
I still consider Turkish far better than other airlines in the middle east such as Emirates and Saudi. Saudi airline charged my relative 7000 SR " 1800 dollars" for one way repatriation flight from Saudi to US !!! Taking advantage of COVID to charge passengers extra.....
I understand your frustration but there're alot of variables that isn't clear in your case if you're ticket was booked through a third party agent like an online website that is not Turkish Airlines official website they can't refund that's true for any airline and I worked for a couple of them including Turkish Airlines what they can do is usually offer a rebooking free of charge or a voucher now I am not sure what exactly happened in your case a miscommunication from their part or something but hell one time I remember I had to change an economy booking to business class free of charge just because there were no economy available for his rebooking
@@philosopherlady434 it's usually valid for two years and yes ofc you can always book a fully fixable ticket but usually it cost a lot more, and sadly regarding your voucher it can't be extended but you can reissue before it expires on a far date full max year, preferably close to a period where you might travel again and reissue it once more on the actual travel date.
hi i hope you reply, me and my family booked a trip to turkey and with turkish airlines, we booked it in february this year and we are going in a few weeks hopefully 🙏🏼. However we resently found out that when going on the app, the seats that we paid extra for and booked so that we can be seated together, now on the app it tells me to pay again and it doesn’t come up with the seats we have chosen. We then rang turkish airlines phone and the person said our seats were cancelled and so has our luggage! We paid extra for seats and 23kg luggage each! i need help on what to do now, pls let me know how i can fix this because i do not want to pay again as i already paid back in february this year. The man on the phone said our flights have not been cancelled but our seats and luggage has been. what do i do? i hope you reply thanks
I traveled with Turkish airline many times and I have never had a problem
Bro I booked with them and they delayed it for 7 hours and cancelled it last second with no reason as to why 😭😭😭
Thanks for letting me know. I almost booked with them...This is so bad. Sorry, you had to go through this.

one of the lucky ones
When you have problems. Especially via Agency!
I understand your frustration I was scammed in 2015 by another Company and that shocked me, especially after loosing so much money, and also after being racially abused by an attendant at Paris Charles de Gaulle long time ago: all this put me off, I stopped flying, I gave up. Lol, thanks for your video! ❤️👍
Explain ur story plz what happened exactly
I love Turkish airlines! They are far better than any of our airlines here in Canada. That said, if we were in that situation it would be nearly impossible for us to go to an "office" because, well, the big airport is a day's travel from here at a cost of $300 for 3 ferries and gas both ways.
Maybe they have improved I hope!
Sorry for your experience but last year, I've cancelled my business class tickets twice and both of them they refund me back to my credit card. It took couple of months, I had to fill some paperwork but money came in. I did it through their NYC office via email. They have the policy of wherever you purchase the ticket, the refund must came through that office/country. That's why it took some time, but it came.
Advice noted. Will continue to keep a turkish open ticket, the voucher never looked like a good option. Other airlines are also same - no refunds. I now have airline credits for 2 other airlines. Lesson learned, dont hurry to book your tickets right now. Thanks for the video.
They will screw you too. This is expertise of Turkish Airline
Traveled with Turkish airlines more than 20 times and never had a problem. Was let off 4 kg over and was able to book another flight within a year because of a cancelled flight not to mention I love the lounge in Istanbul for a extra £15
Never except voucher, If Turkish Airline or any Airlines did not refund during 7 days call your bank and ask for section 75 against Airline and bank will refund you , if you are European citizens.
Yes they are the worst
I am a Turkish Australian and I would never travel with them . The Cabin crew are rude
The extra kilos stuff is true it happened to me I payed more than 100€ for less than 5 kilos
Turkish airlines are the best and I never got scammed
Me to
I regret that I didn’t watch this video before booking my flight. I requested to change my ticket due to family emergency , they made involuntary change to the same original date, which I wanted to advance it by a month earlier. Then they refused to change and claim that I already changed my ticket. Now for several days I am just submitting feedback and feedback, and they are just forcing me to buy for the change fees, or wait for the feedback response which I am not receiving
I got 3 different times a refund and had a free day in a 5 star hotel so..
Hope you can also feature re thief in Turkish airline because my friend traveled and she lost her 200 US dollar.. on the way back she encounter another passenger who experienced same thing that happened to her...
They are doing this to me right now .I have been calling them for the past three days and it excuses and bad customer service.They are so rude
I would never Trust this Air line again . I dont know how are still in business.
I agree, they are scammers. They scammed me $400 USD
this airlines sucks me my fiancé book an airlines here we have boarding pass already via online but when im going to check in my language they denied my visa although we knows that airlines has no right to decide the visa unless the immigration itself now my fiancé cancel the flight and refund the money but they r not refunding till now. please don't take Turkish Airlines again
You're lying. Turkish Airlines has a 100% cash refund policy.
My favourite it airline is Turkish airlines. Our flight got cancelled one we didn’t get scammed
Wow thanks you saved me! I will go with qatar or emirates
It's the worst airline. The customer service try their best but to be honest it sucks heavily. They can't even speak english properly
I've never flown Turkish Airlines but I've tried to find flights on their website. The website was so outdated it wouldn't even work properly. After two days of trying to use the website I simply had to give up. What is up with this company?
Thought of flying, but I am not after watching the video and reading the comments. 🙏🏻
Yeah, I’d be upset too if I was in a similar situation as you. I’ve personally never flown with Turkish but have only heard good things about them. But $600 is a lot of money especially for the budget traveller and losing that value to mere “vouchers” won’t really compensate much since we will have to rebook with another airline anyways using ADDITIONAL money. Good for you if you have credit cards, but the majority of us rely on savings/debit so that does that a toll on our overall cost. Hope to god I’ll never have to deal with this sort of situation.
I agree! My flight got cancelled this month(Philippines-Brazil) and we contacted the travel agency to rebooked my ticket but this F Turkish Airlines saying i have no appearance at the airport even if we sent a proofs. My ticket costs 187,000yen and that F Airline asking for 220,000yen for the rebooking which is way more expensive. We also pay 41,000yen to the travel agency for the penalty. We lost the ticket just like that.Even the travel agency adviced us to look for lawyer and sue this Airline. Turkish airline is really a scammer.
not offending you bro at all, I am writing as regular person here not TK employee, but If you not clever enough to read terms and conditions, moreover if you purchased it somewhere else you should be grateful for getting any option at all, nobody forcing you to claim a voucher that's your decision, if you want refund so call to agency where you've booked it, that's simple as it sounds
👌👌

Traveled with TA many times, all international flights, almost every time had over weight luggage, never was i asked to pay that much extra. Please, tell the whole truth as to what happened. I'm sure many will agree with me.
Simply you send an email to any closer sales office, they do booking. Also it's a lie that prices 3 times more because it's same booking system, only the difference the sales service tax between $15 up to $40.
Thanks for sharing. Me, my entire family & my all friends will never fly with turkish airline. Period
I just tried to make a booking online and, when I got to the payment section, paying with voucher was allowed.
Sorry you had to go through this horrible experience and that too during pandemic when all us struggle to make ends meet...

I got scammed and I booked on their website
Vouchers a made to be useless. Cash is the king in this type of situation never accept a voucher.
I paid $350 for extra bag from Dallas-Fort airport to Bamako mali also the WiFi doesn’t work the food between Istanbul to Bamako sucks 😢Air France is the best airline at least they give you good food
Thanks for sharing!
Unfortunately it is true
Not only for airlines, everything in Turkey is like that if you live for some months there you understand me.
I book a room in Airbnb in Turkey, and they steal my money easy as that.
Writte email to CEO of Turkish Airlines youll be amazed how quickly they will resolve refund problem.
Turkish airlines is one of best if not the best, i flew them several times in the last 5 years, no problems with them. I am sorry for your experience but ALL airlines dont give refunds, i lost money with other airlines.
American Airlines gave me a refund. Delta gave me a refund.
Turkish airlines give my refunds, still waiting by KLM
The same thing happened to me with Air Asia been waiting 5 months for a refund . Nok Scoot got me for 9100 baht . I have a video on my channel as well. Airlines are ripping us off left and right and nothing we can do .
Guys it’s in every airlines contract of carriage if the flights gets cancelled they must rebook you on another flight or a partner carrier if they have any you JUST HAVE TO ASK this can even be done SAME DAY AT AIRPORT. In this case Turkish Ailines is part of the Star Alliance they have 20+ airlines part of that Alliance + they have other codeshare agreements with other airlines coming out to over 30 airlines that he could have used to rebook and I willing to say 95% chance one of these airlines was flying the same route/airport/destination the same day that his flight got canceled. Keep in a mind their a few airlines that don’t have any partners to rebook you on, RyanAir & Southwest one of them.
Bullshit, they are the worst airline in every aspect
so sorry to hear that. no one wants to lose money. I am sure that hurts.
Yes I agree with u. My husband and I missed our flight in Istanbul on Turkish airlines and they not only charged us an extra $543 but we only lost our seats that we paid extra for. 😠
I also encountered similar problem! Worst airline ever
One of the worst airlines. Their website don't even load
I am so sorry for your lost and appreciate you took time to make the video ,Only is not just turkish air looks to me every company become some kind of scame for example i got a credit card only to earn extra for travel Bank of america gave me $ X credit limit and got 350000 points for travel .get to find out i have to use their travel agency , where is for $15000 flight I have to pay over $5000 my points equal to $350 !!! either they think we are stupid or like someone like me and you ,since we are good seeing everyone good . Just remember these days nothing is for free .and no company dose anything for you if they don't get benefit more than you ,But at least people like you exist to make our eyes open and be careful ,and My friend I am sure by doing that you are helping others .You will get some benefit back to you .What they said what goes around comes around.Thank you
That's why I always book with an American Express card! Let Amex do the fighting, and they're good at it!
I'm about to book my flight through amex
hey, I recognize you from My Views On News comment section
@@ye5331 ye bro whach u doin heeyaa😁
@@MsMoanedont use TA. You will regret it!!
Thanks for telling, I was planning to book from Turkish Airlines but , now Noooo
I found this video and after talking to their call center and right off the bat the guy on the line sounded like a total scammer.
Turkish airlines is one of the best airlines in the world.
I agree with you there are so terrible and have the worse customer service
You was booking ticked from third party not from Turkish airlines directly. If my flight is canceled they refund me happening 2 time
