I've heard good things about Turkish airlines.... and now this video from Simply Aviation confirms that... This is a premium airline. Having 2 substantial meals on this flight is really great... Metal cutlery, and also the substantial amenity kit. Good attention to detail, which some well known carriers have forgotten over recent times. Well done Turkish Airlines.

Phillip Maguire Turkish Airlines is where it’s at. They are super on point! They don’t price-gouge, have a massive network, new planes and the service is fantastic, and if you’re stuck in Istanbul, it’s one of the world’s most beautiful cities.

In my experience, Turkish Airlines is the world's best airline with no competition even coming close. They will offer you a full, tasty meal even during a one hour flight. They have IFE in all their flights, including short haul, the staff are incredibly kind, and the planes are always clean and smell good. I think in general Turkish aviation is very professional, but Turkish Airlines will always be my favourite one.

I have couple of flight reviews with Turkish airlines on my channel too 🤗
Changi is the only airport where I get frustrated at having (typically) a two-hour layover. Because two hours is not long enough for me to do all the fun things that are available. I once spent 4 hours at Changi and I wasn't bored for a second. I only see and hear great things about Turkish Airlines. Every review says they're fantastic.
It’s really sick how underrated TK is by for example Skytrax, that’s really tragic in my opinion, all the best from me to TK, greetings from Sweden!

Yes, but their hard product is seriously uncompetitive at this point. 2-3-2 seating for Business Class is simply ridiculous for 2019/2020. Even Singapore's *regional planes* (Southeast Asia only birds comprising A350s and 787s) have 1-2-1 business class and actual Premium Economy. And even TK's new Business Class has been received poorly (bad width of the seats).

@Lee Claxton And she has every right to say so. Simply Aviation has shown consistent quality over the past three years I have subscribed, and they care about the community. I suppose a compliment is never misplaced, and they really deserve it with extensive reports like these.
TK run a really slick operation which you only appreciate when you look at the departure board at IST which rarely has a delay despite the large variety of destinations and tight turn arounds. I've done 4 x 4 segment flights - never a delay, always excellent crew and great food

Hey, thanks for putting this in tripreport form as well. I really enjoy them
K but the Lego-themed security film was absolutely adorable. And the catering looked absolutely delicious!
Turkish Airlines is probably one of the best airlines that I’ve traveled internationally. Their 787-9 is next level, and I’m flying in their 777-300ER later this month. I hope their Economy Class seats are updated and refurbished!

Turks' domestic flights are way better than this triple 7 long haul ones. I had a chance to try it couple of a months ago. Service and legroom were great in comparison with this 777-300Er Ryan air style legroom and business seat configuration.
I really need to go on a flight soon been a few months since my Norwegian 737-800 flight form Barcelona el prat to London Gatwick. I remember being on an Ek 777 and was moved back a row and was right next to the engine
As Turkish, thanks for your feedbacks about Turkiye and Turkish Airlines. We're appreciate to see you in Turkiye. Enjoy your travel. :)
Hallo David so good to see you again it’s been a while when are we expecting to see a new clip of brutally honest video . Good seeing you again and have a merry Christmas and new year in advance .....

Really appreciate that Turkish Airlines provides that much food so that you jave energy to survive your route through that huge airport
I believe Turkish Airlines provide a great deal of customer service at least from what I saw in your trip report. Great job as usual and thanks for sharing it with us 👍👍👍👍👍
TK is good but still 3 stars in Skytrax? Skytrax don't rate TK 4 star just because of 2-3-2 business class layout in 77W? TK still deserve 4 star even for the fact that 2-3-2 is considered obsolete. Skytrax = Skytrash

Solid review as always the food looks really good I'm very curious to fly Turkish and their 773 Getting to deplane though to the ground on arrival !! That's so exciting I would have been lounging out there Amazing airplane
liked as soon as i saw the title
I think TK has one of the best intercontinental economy class. Service is very good, meals are excellent and now with the new Istanbul airport, connecting is easy and organised. Seats are nice too. Business clas is not that good because of their 2x3x2 seating.

Departing from Changi. Flying Turkish Airlines. Arriving at the new Istanbul terminal. What more could you ask for from a flight! Flawless and beautiful!
David: *sees a foot rest on almost every aircraft* -oh it is a rare feture in economy class!
As a seasoned traveler, I guess you are able to sleep in a snug Economy seat, though I couldn't. It's a good thing that the touch screen worked, since the remote wouldn't release. I was less impressed with the dinner than you were (pasta in sauce is the cheapest possible meal), but the breakfast looked good. A very generous amenity kit. And metal cutlery! All quite good by Economy standards.
Yayyyyy Turkish Airlines thank you
Man oh man I can't for the first time to travel by Turkish airlines to INSTABUL I CAN'T WAIT 🤩🤩🤩🤩 Because it was a beautiful city and airport
Thanks, excellent as your norm. Always an upvote when you take the veggie main course.

what an airport !so you checked in 5 hours before ,what is the most you can check in before ?could you go back to the city for a final time without your luggage to carry around

I actually have never had an issue with security at Changi - all my 5 flights from Changi this year had no queue for security at all, so it was a surprise to me to see the looong queue on your flight 😂 (anyone know why?) Also, because I'm quite tall, I actually dislike footrests - they take up some space for my legs, and sometimes when they are broken and can't be stowed properly, I can't even get my legs straight under the seat in front 😂

As for the queue at the gate, it is directly inversely proportional to the amount of staff available and proportional to the size of the aircraft relative to the gate.

Apparently Schlappig doesn't share the same enthusiasm for our Changi airport as you.
And any plane at anytime at Chnangi, can get selected to do random security check upon arrival, even if it’s a Singapore airline flight
Thanks for the video - appreciate travellers experiences. Guess its a matter of interpretation, but the leg room seems pretty tight to me.. The foot rest is a perfect example of how tight things are - good luck bending down to get the powerpoint. Do you know the pitch of the seat? - it looks less than 30!! - Also only 32000 foot ceiling - for the distance, this is rather low altitude. The engines sound like GE's ..I missed that part if you showed it.
Awesome vid 👏🔥
I'm travelling next month to Houston via Turkish airlines (it's my first time) Which seat do you recommend??
Hi there. We will be flying from Cancun to Istanbul in two days. I heard that you can not adjust the air control above the seat. Very worried about that. My husband is always hot in the airplane even with the air on. Can you help with any information on the air control above the seats. Was the plane cool? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Maybe you can try the Air Greenland A330 from Copenhagen to Kangerlussuaq, it has always been a wonder to me
