I flew on the 10th of June via Istanbul to Manchester from Cape Town. I was quite nervous for the transit at Istanbul's huge airport,I watched your transit video beforehand, and that helped me so much😊

[@TravellerYT]

So happy to hear that our video made your trip easier!😀

Did they weigh your personal bag or carry on?

[@Hugo-gr5tn]

how was the legroom? booked the same seats for my 12 hour flight, but not so sure if it's the best option compared to extra leg room in the middle/back of the aircraft. I'm 6' 2". Thanks!

[@TravellerYT]

Legroom was fine! Maxi is 186 cm tall :-D

[@teammitrekovic8410]

Again great flight review,i like to watch it This is huge help,especialy if somebody transfering in new airport or flying airline that never fligh before We will maybe have a transfer in Turkey on our way to Asia,of course all depence about flight ticket price,we dont want overpay

[@TravellerYT]

Glad you enjoyed the video! :-D Yes, like you, ticket price also is a factor when we plan who to fly with! Thanks for watching :-D

[@zacklee22]

Maxi have a wonderful Father's Day next Sunday on on the 16th June 🎈

[@TravellerYT]

Thanks Zack. Actually I´m (Maxi) not a father ;-)

[@ashvinauthithan7441]

Hello Maxi and Maro, Turkish Airlines flight attendants will be very friendly throughout the whole flight, to help to fix issues with the inflight entertainment system that's not working in Maxi's seat. The cabin on the Airbus A350-900, Boeing 777-300ER, and the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner will be comfortable because these both types of aircraft will be sent between Istanbul and the US.

[@TravellerYT]

Thanks for watching! The staff did try to fix the IFE System but were unable to. We have tried having issues with Inflight Entertainment Systems and very seldom, once they are down, are the crew able to fix them ;-)

I saw 👀 the Emirates plane in this video 📹.

Is that Turkish chicken rice? How many hours did you sleep on the plane and did you sleep well with full recline?

[@zacklee22]

How are you ☺️ Maxi & Maro and I am Zack from Malaysia and I really like the video 📹

[@TravellerYT]

Hi Zack! All is well on our end and we hope the same goes for you! Thanks for watching :-D

9:21, It's a Japanese bidet. Japan has the bidet all in the city and rural areas, even on Japanese plane, so it's good to wash, using the control. I can't believe they have that Japanese bidet on Turkish, Airbus A350-900, wow.

In February/March I've flown DUS-IST-SGN and BKK-IST-DUS on Turkish and had quite mixed feelings about them. The catering is great, probably one of the best in the world but besides that I found their product mediocre at best. The seats on the 350 and 330 were quite uncomfortable and legroom was significantly worse than on most other airlines I've flown in recent years. They also cancelled my paid seat reservation and never reimbursed me even after contacting their customer service on the phone and online. That's just an unacceptable behavior. Unless they are the by far cheapest option I won't choose them again in the future.

[@TravellerYT]

We have also had mixed experiences and can relate to the cramped space on a trip to Kuala Lumpur. There we flew in an outdated aircraft with an outdated interior. The last experiences have been good with the exception of our pre-paid seats being cancelled on both legs of our Inbound outbound flights to Cape Town - we did get the money back without contacting them - but it was an unpleasent experience as the staff were trying to get everybody to move from the new seats they had given us. Also negative recently is the fact that we have had to cancel flights owing to Marp´s illness! Here is a copy paste that I replied to one of our other viewers regarding that, "Also when we had to cancel our flights in January owing to Maro´s illness they did not provide a good cancelation service either, VERY POOR!. We were due to fly Emirates to Cape Town in March and Turkish Airlines again to Cape Town in June. Bare in mind we cancelled in January... Emirates gave us a full refund for our March flight with them (a small administrative fee was paid by us) Turkish Airlines however would not refund the ticket despite the flight only being in June, the only option was to change the flight dates, POOR SERVICE!!! Our insurance took care of it! Despite that, we would fly with them again but, they should seriously revise their cancellation policy for their passengers who become ill and are unable to make their journey, particularly when they cancel well in advance!" Poor customer service! A pity because it is a good airline.

[@Nvh777]

I will never fly again with turkish airlines...

[@Watfordfc71]

I can’t really make my mind up about Turkish airlines , they seem to go through a real golden period but I’m not so sure now , food looked ok but obviously change of seats entertainment not working on a 10hr flight , I’d be really unhappy with that , just an opinion that’s all cheers

[@TravellerYT]

They are a good airline and we would fly with them again! They actually changed our aircraft on both our outbound and inbound flights so we lost our seats twice (that is not good). Also when we had to cancel our flights in January owing to Maro´s illness they did not provide a good cancelation service either, VERY POOR!. We were due to fly Emirates to Cape Town in March and Turkish Airlines again to Cape Town in June. Bare in mind we cancelled in January...
