      Due to timezones, you can indeed travel back in time flying west.

      Not that far back, but maybe if you kept going around…

    I got held up at work, so I missed my flights to Europe. Turkish offered me to put me onto the next flight for a mere $8,200 (economy class), which I refused given Qatar and Emirates both offered flights for 1/3 of that price.

    I asked them if I can still take the return flight, they said most definitely can after paying a no show fee ($200). Needless to say, they wouldn't let me board the return flight or pay for the no show fee either and they also didn't reply to my complaint I lodged a month ago due to misleading customers and refusing to refund the second leg of the flight (they normally allow this even after taking the first flight).

    Just to put this into perspectives, Qantas rebooked me to the next available flight for free of charge, Rex offered a $55 relief package when I missed my domestic flight on the spot too.

    The so called 'premium' airline.

      Charging you a fee because you missed your flight? What on earth

      • Csadeev on 21/02/2025 - 15:07

        Asking $8,200 from your customer, who already paid thousands of dollars to take your flights sounds fair and very much reasonable, especially when your competitors offer a better (less connections) service for $6,000-$6,500 less. Here at Ozbargain, we are looking to pay more, whenever possible.

      • nerdinary on 21/02/2025 - 15:53

        Charging you a fee because you missed your flight? What on earth

        I don't agree with it, but they do clearly state that when you're buying your flight - but only if you buy one of their "cheaper" tickets. Heck, even Singapore Airlines charge you with a "no-show" fee on some routes / fares.

        I fly 40+ sectors on average a year and so far I only missed a couple of domestic connections, which were the last leg of the international journey and were on a separate itinerary (limited o/s flights from QLD during Covid period). This is hopefully the first and last flight I missed, which was the first leg of the journey.

    • gimme on 21/02/2025 - 13:50

      At what point did you offer to pay the no show fee? Timing could be important.

      Also what were the T&Cs of your airfare type in relation to missing a flight because of your own 'fault'?

      These are important factors.

      • Csadeev on 21/02/2025 - 15:18

        I showed up at the check-in desk right after I missed the check-in cut-off time. Since they have no ticketing office at Sydney Airport, check-in staff asked me to call their international hotline, which I did and I asked them to rebook me to the next flight available offering them to pay the no show fee. That's when I got quoted $8,200 and got told that it's not possible to just pay a penalty fee to get rebooked to the next flight. Later that night, I called them again asking them if I can take the return flight and they told me I can after paying the no show fee at departure, so I didn't even cancel the second half of the journey, which I could have and get some money back. In my complaint, which I lodged after the return flight, I asked them to retain the recorded phone calls, which based on their lack of responsiveness, they haven't done I believe.

        My ticket was economy class (P class).

    • Blargman2001 on 22/02/2025 - 08:40

      I recently flew with them to Italy. Every single male I dealt with from Turkish in the air, the call centre and on the ground were rude as hell. I've never been made to feel more unwelcome by an airline. This is in addition to the issues I had with them before I even departed.

      Some specifics would be useful. Australians generally don't have much experience with TK so we need to educate ourselves about the pros and cons.

      I agree, i've been left stranded by delayed Turkish airlines flight, which meant I missed an International to Domestic connection - they took 0 responsibility, straight up lied in responses, and tried to pass on blame onto the next airline which was not at fault.

    Lol yea "Do not fly" with zero context has alot of weight. Also I'd ignore individual experiences. I mean it's a sport to hate on Qantas in Aus so again bucket of salt. Not to mention almost every country thinks their airlines is the worst.
    For the record my experience with TA has been fine. Also fine with Qantas and many others. Customer service (phone support) can be atrocious with almost all airlines. Don't take my word for it.

    • TightG on 21/02/2025 - 13:58

      CONTEXT: Booked to europe. Return flight cancelled half way on our trip. Took weeks and countless hours on the phone to get us back on another flight. Lost ENTIRE planes baggage on return flight. Rude staff, non existent customer service. I could write a book if you want more context but I was just putting it out there for people to be aware that they are no good. Best of luck!

  • Time has come on 21/02/2025 - 13:21

    Beware, i'm told there is no free seat selection at check in on TK.

    Not cheap seat selection fees either.

    e.g. Europe return standard seats $244 or extra legroom $790.

    My interest in trying TK has evaporated since learning about this and their patchy customer service.

    • Csadeev on 21/02/2025 - 14:43

      If you check in within 6 hours of your departure time, you can choose your seats.

    Why would any Australian fly a turkish airline and support their economy after what happened during the Gallipoli campaign? Are Australians this dulled down?

    • tightm8 on 21/02/2025 - 16:26

      Last I checked, Australia went all the way to Gallipoli, which if you have a brain cell left, you'd know it is very very far away, so ask yourself who did the attacking. The Ottoman empire at the time posed ZERO threat to Australia, their beef was with the British empire who at the time was attacking the Ottoman empire in the middle east. Our Temu Trump's of the time thought it would be good to suck up to the dying British empire, and guess what, we paid for it with many lives lost. The Brits used the Aussies like pawns, sent them to their death. I suggest you go to Gallipolli today and see the respect the Turks have for the Australians despite them being attacked.

    I've flown Turkish Airlines more than I should so I can give some context.
    The reason I've flown them is obvious. They often have the cheapest price. So what are the negatives?

    1. Istanbul is a shit airport. If you swipe your passport at one of the kiosks you will get 1 hr of free internet, once it expires you're done. This is extremely unusual for international airports.
    2. The gate for your flight at Istanbul will usually be "TBD" until about 1 hr before boarding, so you can never get to your gate early and relax. My theory for why they do this "just in time" gate allocation is:
    3. Flights often run late. I've not missed a connecting flight yet, but it generally means I have spend more time in Istanbul with, as I've pointed out above, no internet.
    4. Their website is also shit.
    5. Support is terrible. I am trying to claim uncredited frequent flyer points right now and it's taken 3 iterations so far of entering information into their feedback form and getting an unhelpful reply.
    6. If you are unlucky enough to have a cancelled flight, Turkish Airlines does not provide the same kinds of guarantees that EU airlines are required to by EU law. I've had a cancellation happen and it cost me quite a bit of money. It was due to the partner airline cancelling their part of the flight, but the effect was still the same. Incidentally also found out that if you have booked a codeshare flight, then when they cancel on you, you can only change your flight (for free) to another codeshare flight. Which is completely (profanity) if the partner airline has just cancelled everything.

    In-flight experience is ok I guess. The seats are small, but the alternative airlines are the same.

      Ah yes, the classic blend of racism and misogyny, served with a side of ignorance. Imagine being so insecure that you have to mock a woman’s appearance to feel relevant. Maybe work on yourself instead of broadcasting your lack of intelligence to the world.

        Imagine not having a sense of humour, how about trying to lighten up a little?

        FWIW, have been to Istanbul/Gallipoli a number of times, have always enjoyed the countries hospitality although their speeding taxi driver's border on being reckless - am I allowed to say that or is that something else you'll take offense to?

        Certainly do have to have your wits about you with the shoe shiners at the Grand Bazaar as they try to rip you off with the 'excuse' they had to use the special polish. lol. Yeah that's right, an experience to comment on usually only when you've had first hand experience of the place.

        BTW, you did see my post above approving of Australia's relationship with Turkey?

        Interested also, how am I mocking a woman's appearance by stating that she can't grow a tache, seriously you went looking for offence on the internet today didn't you?

          Ah yes, the classic ‘it’s just a joke, lighten up’ defense, the last refuge of someone who got called out and has nothing intelligent to say. Funny how your ‘humor’ only ever seems to punch down at stereotypes instead of being, you know, actually witty.

          And thanks for the travel blog nobody asked for, but visiting a country doesn’t grant you a free pass to spread lazy generalizations. If anything, it just makes you look like a tourist who thinks a week abroad turns them into an expert on an entire culture.

          As for your ‘I wasn’t mocking her appearance, I just said she can’t grow a mustache’ impressive mental gymnastics. Maybe try applying that energy to forming an actual argument instead of backpedaling when people call you out. Just a thought

          Your attempt to frame this as a lack of humor or an overreaction misses the point entirely. Humor is subjective, but when it relies on racial stereotypes or mocks someone’s appearance,especially in a way that perpetuates harmful and outdated tropes, it ceases to be funny and becomes offensive. Your comment about women and mustaches is not just a joke; it’s a racially charged stereotype that reduces an entire group of people to a caricature. That’s not humor; it’s prejudice.

    Have used TA last year to visit Eastern Europe …… all the bookings went well but they were Business that might help?!. The return to Australia was interesting, a journey started in Dubrovnik and we had bookings with Croation Airlines - was booked to Istanbul via Zagreb with two economy flights one very late and the other very early and we would have been better to sleep at the Zagreb Airport on a bench!!.

    This was not a good prospect, and a few days before we were due to fly out of Dubrovnik I noticed TA had a direct business service which was not available months before when first booking in Australia.

    Trouble was the J flight was around $3000 and that was a stopper!! ….. but contacted our small Travel Agent to explain our situation and in less than a day fixed up a fare in J for about $700 each after sweet talking TA I suspect!.

    Moral of the story, we have had a number of occasions when our agent sorted the issues out and also have obtained refunds. So, online direct might look good but having an Agent helping out pays dividens and you can still get good fares. We check out the online prices and our Agent price matches, so its a win win.
