Did first time 3 hours return flight to IST in Y. Good food (better than LH's LIS-FRA hot meal in Y) with two options: chicken file or fish, clean aircraft, old though (B738). Crew: The male FA’s were usually very good and accommodating and out to make sure you had a great flight. However, the female FA’s seemed to be going through the motions. At IST over half of the TK long haul fligts were delayed 1-2 hours in two different days. My Europe flights on the other hand were on time. As I was still impressed TK's product, I will book TK Y+ to HKG. My connection time will be 3 hours, that is, I'm most likely to make it, but your connection is hectic for TK and IST airport, which is at the same time one of the most disorganised airports , though modern and still easy to access. Have read reviews TK service some say They Hate You - but onboard product is good when you just accept to travel from A to B and dont have high expectations - some say crew and meals were excellent in Y+ Comfort Class. I wouldn't book OS long haul in Y.
