Today I’m flying Turkish Airlines Business Class on their newest Boeing 787 Business Class product all the way from Vancouver, Canada over to Istanbul Turkey. And boy do I have a trip report in for you today. I experienced the worst ever service interaction onboard; where I was shouted at, and left feeling very uncomfortable. What’s more boarding was a shambles, seating onboard was totally changed last minute and I almost spent the entirety of a $3,000 12 hour flight in the middle seat…

So I have a history with Turkish Airways, after my review earlier this year. Turkish cut back so much over the last 18 months and actually offered cold packed lunch boxes on their mid haul routes whilst still charging over $1000 a ticket. Today I was hoping this would be different, but my word I’m left with quite a sour taste in my mouth. Perhaps the most ludicrous part of the experience was ordering the steak to be presenting with slop on a plate… Yes they still promote their 5* dining onboard. My aim is to show the reality of flying premium cabins, and call out airlines when they don’t deliver on their promises. Remember this ticket was sold at $3600 so expectation is rather high. I hope that Turkish will indeed improve in the future, some fingers crossed and I will be back onboard to find out… when this day comes.

Thanks as always for watching my business class review on Turkish Airlines, let me know what you think down below. Play nice 🙂

    I feel saddened to see such a negative review of Turkish Airlines, as I have been a frequent flyer with them for years now and have never had a bad experience. Every time I fly with them, I am impressed by their level of service and comfort. The staff are always friendly and accommodating, the food is delicious, and the in-flight entertainment is top-notch.

    I understand that things can go wrong sometimes, but I believe it's important to keep in mind that not every flight or every airline is going to be perfect. However, I have never felt uncomfortable or mistreated during my travels with Turkish Airlines. I truly believe that they are a fantastic airline and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a premium flying experience.

  9. Why do people leave negative comments…? You are beyond professional and polite. Thank you for these videos

  10. Trust me crew is just mad that a kilo of cheese is costing 200 turkish currency and they can`t afford it.

  11. We took Turkish Airlines back to Miami from Naples, Italy. Our original flight was canceled twice so we had to rebook for a shorter trip in Italy. Our flight out of Italy was delayed by three hours. We were put on the next available flight the following day. We are actually on our original flight we had booked months prior. We had to stay at the Airlines Hotel . Before leaving we had to pay a $30 visa fee just to leave the airport. We were feed airline food at the hotel and given water for dinner. Upon returning to the airport the next day our seats had been changed from our upgraded seats. We had to wait in line to get them changed, our upgraded seats we’re no longer available and we we’re not reimbursed. The flight attendants weren’t the nicest to us during the flight. A week after we got back home, we noticed that Turkish had charged us twice for the same flight. They charged us for the original flight and the one they rebooked us on. Customer Service call line is very confusing and unhelpful. I think it’s intentional with all the different departments and claims you have to file. I will never fly Turkish Airlines again. Yes we arrived alive and safe but they’re a horrible company and airline.

  12. Flew Turkish from Frankfurt to Istanbul. Yeah, the crew was really just pissed off about everything.

  13. you should have record that conversation

  14. Bro there’s no way someone yelled at you because I have flew Turkish airlines and it petty good.

  15. Don’t bother with anything Turkish, period.

  16. This is the worst airliner ever. I even filed a complaint and did not even get a reaction? Choose another.

  17. Looked crap. Great review.

  18. You may know this or you may not, but when you book last minute your boarding pass can contain a certain code that flags you as a potential security threat.

  19. You wrote the script well, I hope they blacklist you for your lies👎🏻

  20. Yes, this is exactly my experience with Turkish airlines. It is either a good service when everything is going "according to the plan", or a horrible rude mess, when something is not going right. Out of my circa 20 flights with Turkish, 2 were just horrible (1 business, 1 economy) and 2 were so so. Some flights were great. But this is the worst inconsistency I've seen among airlines. And by horrible I mean really horrible, not a "below average food" or "a bit of dust on the seat". I really mean rude shouting messy staff, completely unprovoked.

  21. Shotta fusk up

  22. I have really flown different airlines and long haul flights always business class and I cannot share these negative statements about Turkish Airlines. Everything was always excellent, the staff always friendly and attentive, the food and drinks perfect and a big difference to economy class. The quality of the Turkish Airlines lounges is really excellent, the breakfast offers a wide variety of dishes, and the recreational opportunities are many.
    So, as I said, I can't share the negative opinions, but one should not forget that where people work, mistakes also happen.

  23. Yeah. Realistically I am from Bulgaria and I study in the city of Kardzhali .Sorry but this comment is little bit off topic I know the purpose of the channel. And I can tell you if see Turkish. Run. I'm not saying all are bad. But many have these artificially made ,,barriers'' . For example in my highschool there I can say many times I was made fun out of . And also insulted. Again not all some. However the problem there is many of them come from the nearby Villages nearby and most of them have poor manners and ethics. And as a whole yeah. Tons of inflated confidence. Taking pictures around their friends BMW cars making others naive enough believe that they own them. As a whole not a warm welcoming people. Well let's say that 40 out of 100 % are not warm welcoming. So yeah if you come nearby as a western foreigner I advice you watch out and most of all trust NOBODY. But your own guts. Hint: in the oblast (region) of Kardzhali most of the population is of Turkish origin.
    The majority are from the Turkish ethnic group.

  24. I think it's so funny when one bad employee ends up costing the company tens of thousands of dollars, just think about how many people who were considering business class with them saw your video and decided to choose a different company to fly with. Haha, I wish you would also disclose the name of the employee who does this kind of thing so they can be fired, but I understand why you don't do it

    Apple crumble "of economy standard"? You've never flown Ryan Air economy, have you? The only apple crumble you get on their flights is bread crumbs and apple juice stains on your seat when you board. And that's if you're lucky.

  26. Never had a bad experience with Turkish airline’s 😅

  27. turkısh aırlens and sıngapore airlines has the best food compering the others you are not very talkıng the truth btw ı fly many destinations with many airlines

    What a shit airline

  32. İ also was on this flight.. the meals were terrible, and yes İ also was flying bussiness. However the staff wasnt rude. Trek Trendy doesnt tell you the whole story. The crew was very polite to him and they did a lot he wanted. However he became rude and almost racist, the crew members tried to fix a solution but he got more angry and the desperate crew member becamr very harsh against him. İt sucks that he doesnt share the whole footage… But the meals were TERRİBLE.

  33. Why you neglected that during panademic all airline service was downed. I used Lufthansa to Mexico just got light cold meal and all lounges at Frankfurt was closed .restaurants also closed i never been hungry in travel that much . When i requested any food from the flight Stewart she gave me ice cream.. that was bad time for travel for everyone passengers and airline…do you think it's fair to judge something at exceptional circumstances??

  34. That was an illuminatingly useful and informative video. I think you had a big bum deal. Period. Being shouted at is NOT on! I was not in any way impressed and the food looked dreadful. Poor performance TA … I nearly chose TA to fly from Kuala Lumpur to Istanbul last summer. Very glad I didn't. Could it have been that the antsy ground staff member knew you from previous videos and decided to take out some gratifying revenge? If it was – backfired big-time for Turkish Airlines. I will now NEVER choose to fly with you. Period.

  35. TA treated its employees very badly during the pandemic. It forced many experienced staff into retirement or low salaries and fired many. Now it faces the consequences of this approach.

  36. Himm, weird I have the best experience with them…

  37. You shot this video during the most difficult times of the pandemic period and everyone was very nervous at that time, all companies and all people were afraid of viruses, there were restrictions on all services at that time and this video you made is not fair at all.

  38. Too many adds on these ebegging vids for me , ffks turn the adds off
