Turkish airlines is probably one of the worst airlines I've ever experienced.
Generally, whichever major airline you've booked a flight with, and there are utilizing Turkish airlines, just say no.
Unless you are a local or have some magic powers, even the booking airline is unable to select any seats, meals, etc. for you. We literally rushed through Heathrow to get to Turkish Airlines, only to discover the lines to get checked in at the gate , and onto the airplane we're just a hot mess.
The people at the counter were extremely rude to everyone, and it just made the experience even worse
We ended up not being able to sit together, but they found two Aisle seats for us, and we acquiesced to those seats just so we could board the plane.
The four hour flight felt like we were being dragged across the top of numerous mountains because it was bumpy and for the first time in my entire life, I had motion sickness from the horrible flight.
The one thing I found interesting about this flight and maybe it's just their common practice because we certainly don't see this in the United States, is that there was meal service.
Keep in mind there isn't a choice of what you're being given to eat, but if you're hungry, it's better than nothing I suppose. I'm here to say that the food was horrible. The drink service was even worse, and the flight attendants were absolutely rude.
Would I recommend this airline?! Absolutely not at least this leg of our journey was completely under desirable, and this plane was extremely uncomfortable. read more
