I just called in to assign seats. Is there a way to verify somehow online it was saved and done correctly? I distinctly remember calling a couple years ago and thinking it was all saved and then checking online to see no seats assigned.

EDIT: Realized that you must obtain a TK PNR if it was an award received through Aeroplan. For others who might be in the same situation as I am, just DM Air Canada on Twitter and give them the AC PNR and ask for the TK PNR, they will give it to you.

Yes - while both AC and TK actually use the same Res system (IBM Res3) - each of them uses a customized version (which is why TK calls it 'Troy' and not Res3), so each airline will have its own PNR number.

Yes - via Manage Your Booking on a new web site (address starts with p. - there is a separate thread on this forum).

Yes exactly same problem... Stupid website. On the phone now. At least you can hear the agent nowadays!! ;)

Their website is drek.

Never mind the part that says "booking one-way flights not allowed for Turkish citizens" - I'm not Turkish - but yes, the seat selection also has always sprouted errors. But then, when I check-in, the seats happen to be correct.

OT, but why would you prevent Turks from booking one-ways?

I guess you could book one oneway to get out of Turkey and show proof of a refundable return journey...

The authorities seem to tax citizens $6 when they leave the country except those with dual citizenship.

Actually don't understand where this is coming from. There are no restrictions on booking one-ways. I just booked one over the TK website last week.

Booked on UA. How can I select Seats?
 
Hello,

As the Title says. I booked a ticket to IST with miles in Business (I) Class. Usually when i'm on a code share I can find the other airlines Confirmation code or something to reference.

Any idea on how I can select my seats on Turkish with only my 016 ticket number and UA confirmation code?

airoli Mar 10, 2017 10:25 am

You call UA and get the TK confirmation code.

Then you call TK within 100 days of your departure and have seats assigned.

dayone Mar 10, 2017 10:05 pm

I was told that UA doesn't receive TK's PNR. I got mine by calling TK.

tcm Mar 11, 2017 1:37 am

I also select my seats by calling the TK hotline. Hope this can be done reliably online one day. However would recommend to check a few days before your flight that a a/c swap does not mess up your seat selection.

I just had the exact same problem and it was worrisome because I am traveling alone from IST to ORD with two children. Glad I checked here, used a number I found shared in this thread, called and had it fixed in three minutes!

sapman986 Mar 12, 2017 8:06 pm

Good info. Had the exact same question as the OP. I am outside to 100 day window.

AirCanada881 Mar 14, 2017 3:26 am

Has anyone managed to book the first row of the second business class cabin on the 77W before the online check in, or are these blocked due to bassinet seating?
