Turkish Airlines is the national flag carrier airline of turkey, headquartered at the Turkish Airlines General management Building on the grounds of Ataturk Airport in Istanbul. It operates services to over 209 destinations in Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas, making it the fourth largest carrier in the world by number of destinations. It serves more destinations non stop from a single airport than any other airline in Europe and flies to about 115 countries which is more than any other airline in the world. Istanbul Atatürk Airport is its main base and its secondary hubs are at Esenboga, Sabiha Gokcen, and Adnan Menderes International Airports. Massive passenger numbers have been known to cause flight delays and cancellations as Airlines struggle to make proper planning of flights and Turkish airlines isn’t exempted from this mishaps.

Your Rights as an
Air-Passenger

If you fall victim of a flight failure with Turkish Airlines, you are entitled to an alternative flight which the airline is mandated to immediately make available. You have a right to either accept the offer or request for a full refund. In a situation where notice of an imminent cancellation is given less than 14 days before scheduled departure date, then you could be eligible to some monetary compensation as well. Generally, compensation is paid when a flight is delayed for at least 3 hours or cancelled without 14 days prior notice of an impending cancellation and amount payable as compensation is solely dependent on the flight distance and not on the ticket price. It must be noted however that Airlines are not held responsible for delays and cancellations that is as a result of exceptional circumstances such as Bird strikes, Storms and other related bad weather conditions.
