Turkish business class - any good

[xd9000]

Hi All.
I am considering some Business flights with Turkish airlines, from Asia to Europe, but looking at reviews, they are pretty concerning.
14K - 5 star
8k - 4 star
10k - 1 star review.
Are the bad reviews justified.
Do we think this is mainly comments from economy fliers and from people who don’t know any better ?
Or are they justified?
Appreciate any input? As the reviews have put us off booking with them as yet.
Thanks

I wouldn't let reviews guide you too far.

Personally, I like them, especially within Europe where you get a proper business class seat, not Eurobusiness. Long haul they are 'pretty good' - I had good flights; the bed is good but the service wasn't quite as polished as, say Qatar . The food is very good.

They are often priced below, say QR (depends when you price them of course) and when its a fair bit below, its good value and I'd fly them over QR.

Here's my coverage of my TK long haul J flights, with pictures. The return journey starts at post #199.

In the end, we boarded at 9:50 (A350-900) and I was amazed when we pushed back exactly in time, 10:25.

I’m in 4K, single with the seat nearer the window.

Biz cabin







A lockable cubby hole - great idea.



Proper air vents



Amenity kit. Just the basics but the socks are fluffy




No PJs but I bought my own QR ones.

PDBs offered.

I filtered the reviews to 1 and 2 star only, and read through the first 7 pages.

The only thing that was justified IMO was that the call centre can be hard to contact. Which is fairly common across most airlines.

Most of the other complaints weren’t justified… they involved unrealistic passenger expectations.
