OP -

LH is still very cheap at less than USD1,000. I would also go with the option your father is comfortable with.

Flew with TK via IST last month. No issues, but I do appreciate why one is keen to avoid any additional hassle.

Many people were well aware of the issues at AF a few years ago. The airline acknowledged them, addressed them and they are hopefully fixed.

TK has problems, that cant be denied. Hopefully they are addressing them.
