Personally I have been on 2 long haul TK flights in the last few weeks where the heat was simply unbearable, and had to have (again) a conversation(s) with the "Sef" to lower the temperature (The "Sef" claiming that they had raised it because some old woman had complained-----I told her to give the Teze a blanket and keep the other 350 pax happy). The last flight the cabin was over 26 degrees. The standard across the industry is 22 degrees, plain and simple.
