    I remember 1970’s I was a child went to Germany few times with Lufthansa and I asked my dad how come we don’t fly with Turkish airlines he told me wasn’t safe enough.
    Now became superb airline I’m very proud of them.I hope they keep their safety record for very long time.

      Hey Jim, thank you for watching this video and dropping your comment. Yup, in 1970's TK had a really bad reputation on air safety travel. Even myself I was quite surprised how great their onboard services were. Highly recommended TK to fly and hopefully next time you'll have the chance to fly with them.

    I really Like Turkish Airlines, service and food is the best, better leg room, and most of their planes are brand new and that Istanbul new Airport. wow state of art the best and biggest I have ever seen, my flight was 3 hours a part, I was glad, loved the entire shopping and dining especially Anatolian cuisine area, delicious

    • @SoyTravels
      @SoyTravels  4 роки тому +1

      Thanks Jess! I think you have to review your final destination’s restrictions. As of now all airlines are only accepting residents and citizens to travel on repatriation flights. If your purpose of travel is leisure, then it’s likely you will not be allowed to board. It can change though, as most of the airlines are getting back to business. You can also check Turkish airline’s website: www.turkishairlines.com/en-int/announcements/coronavirus-outbreak/

    I just came from Istanbul last week I and my experience with Turkish Airlines was not so good. When coming back from Istanbul we went trough a lot of trouble in Istanbul airport. We missed our flight and they charged us $560 extra to get another ticket and we lost our paid seats. Istanbul airport is very big and confusing 😖

      Hey thanks for sharing your story. I know exactly how you feel although it was for a different airline. You can really pay hefty amount of money for not showing up on time. Lesson learned for me, so since then I always go 3 hours early and enjoy my time at the lounge.
