      Got robbed in plain sight!As much I used to like Turkish Airlines and fly with them for years.... something has been changing in their company and not for the good. Their customer service is indeed very bad, no supervisor/ no manager, very rude agents and not helpful at all. I had an unpleasant experience with them recently, very similar to the customer who wrote the previous comment. I went on their website to transfer the accumulated miles from one account to another, and interestingly enough, their website is quite misleading as my card ended up being charged USD 570 for transferring my own miles. I was so confused about what happened, I called their customer service several times, wasted few hours on that, sent few feedbacks online asking them to refund the money as this is some sort of mistake and they bluntly kept replying to my emails saying they don't refund any money. No way to escalate the issue to a manager, the misleading information or I would say the lack of information is indeed intended to confuse the customers and steal their money. I sent a complaint to DOT, with the proofs how deceitful their process is on the website and let's see if this will make any difference. In the meantime I think this should be escalated to a legal class action, as I'm sure there are many people who fell in the same trap.Too unfortunate that an airline, names as one of the best in the world, practices shady things like this.

      I had a deeply frustrating experience with Turkish Airlines that I feel compelled to share. Unfortunately, Turkish Airlines seems to be scamming passengers who miss their flights by charging exorbitant fees. Their customer service is abysmalrude, unhelpful, and deceptive. Its clear that their primary goal is not to serve their customers but to exploit them for profit.I am not alone in this experience; multiple friends and family members have encountered similar issues with Turkish Airlines. From unresponsive customer support to unjustified charges, their practices are both unethical and infuriating.I strongly advise against flying with Turkish Airlines. Their behavior is a disservice to travelers, and there are plenty of other airlines that offer better customer service and fairer practices.

      DO NOT FLY. I purchased a round-trip business class ticket on ********************************* four months before travel. Turkish Airlines is part of the ************* (United), so I was comfortable flying on a carrier I had not yet traveled. Two weeks before travel, I received an email stating that my seat on my third leg had been canceled. There were no options online, so I called customer service. The agent demanded that I pay an additional $2,000. He could not tell me why my seat had been canceled, so I asked to speak with a supervisor. He then canceled all my flights and issued a partial refund. I filed two formal complaints with Turkish Airlines as they do not let you speak with anyone with authority. The email responses were shocking, essentially blaming me. My flights are still available on their website for $2800 more than I paid. There are multiple business-class seats. This was a pure bait and switch.

      Turkish airlines broke our luggage at ******************** on January 5, 2024. We are going into the 8th month(August) and the luggage still hasn't arrived. I have made hours of phone calls to TA ***************** Days after day, week after week, and month after month and still haven't received the service they advertise. They deserve a BIG "F" for customer service and follow-up. STAR ALLIANCE NEEDS TO DROP THEM FOR THEIR AWFUL SERVICE!!Think twice before you fly with them... Expensive and lousy service...

      Hi we booked tickets through Turkish Airline to visit **** with 5 family members costing 1700$ per ticket in april 2024. Our flight is in August 2024. Tickets now have dropped to close to 1000$ and even lower in other carriers. I called the turkish airline to get some adjustment credit as tickets have dropped down significantly- she told me I have no right to do so and will loose all our tickets in case we try to cancel and re book. This is a airline scam as to lower the fare price to sell all tickets while sold much expensive earlier. I will put it on better business bureau for people know and avoid this airline and understand how it plays with clients.i am even a smile membe But its of no benefit in general

      I had a very unpleasant experience on Turkish Airlines Flight TK17 from ********, ****** (IST) to *******, ****** (YYZ) on July 4th.We were given two meal options: beef and pasta. Since my mom is allergic to cream, we opted for beef. To our shock, the flight attendant later told us they ran out of beef, leaving us only with the cream-based pasta! When we explained the allergy, the response was, write an email to complain. Even worse, another attendant laughed and mocked my mom's allergy, asking, How can you be allergic to pasta? Seriously? Adding to the frustration, we asked for an extra bottle of water halfway through the flight. The attendant rudely replied, Didnt you already have one? We can only give out one bottle of water. Given that we paid over $5,000 for three tickets, we expected better service and basic amenities, like enough food and water for everyone.The entire experience left us deeply unsatisfied and surprised. Ive flown with Turkish Airlines multiple times and never experienced such poor service. We felt disrespected and neglected, and we want to know why such issues were allowed to happen.

      I bought travel tickets for my self and my daughter to travel to *********** (****** ) to specific which schedule for June 7th to 26th 2024 . A day prior to travel we was informed that host could no longer provide the accommodations due the death of a family member and are trip was canceled I contact the airline to facilitate a refund or re issue me another ticket and I was denied that my ticket didn't accommodations such in their fares agreement. I we lov e to have a full refund of the amount $3761.70 again no one will spend such an amount of money without the intent of traveling I feel been scam by the airline.

      Scammers.I bought 2 way ticket ******** to *****/***** to ******** on Expedia. Carrier is Turkish airlines. And I used first part of this flight package. But I was declined to board on plane at Apr 1.I was on time, not late in front of checkout desk at airport. Checkout team couldnt fount my previous flight Istambul to ***** Feb 4 int they system . They asked paper!!! ticket from my previous flight as a proof. They told me 2 way ticket is one package, If I did not use first flight I cant use second flight. Finally i found paper ticket from my previous flight when returned to home. My guessing Turkish airlines sold my ticket which bought in advance for expensive when it in high demand. I had connection flight in ******** which I bought separately, from ******** to next destination. Because of that I have to buy expensive ticket for next day. And Turkish Airlines refund me nothing.
