So if the plane is now flying regularly, how has this seat map issue not been resolved? Surely they are not flying these planes half empty because the computer system doesn't show the correct amount of seats.

Turkish Airlines - Impossible is nothing
----------------- And another news, Advance seat selection in Economy Class for domestic flights are now available for a cost. 25 TRY for regular seats and 40 TRY for exit row seats. Seat selection is still free during OLCI. Also, there is a rumor going that advance seat selection ( for all seats including seats which aren't exit row seats or bulkheads ), for international flights and Economy cabin, would not be free of charge anymore. |
Running into the same issue on my award booking for in May 2020 on the 787. Wife and I spoke to 3 separate agents. The first one actually assigned us seats, but 2A and 2D and swore they are next to each other. We tried explaining we wanted E and F to no avail. Hoping it gets resolved sooner than later.
Even weirder when checking seat selection in the app, it says our tickets haven't been issued even though we have email confirmation regarding the same. Anyways wouldn't be surpised on the seat selection for economy, was only a matter of time before it migrated over from Anadolu Jet on to TK metal. |

The check-in agents can see the seat map without an issue, the problem is that the seat map does not appear correctly in their web system and in the system that the hotline uses.

I would be quite upset if they requested status passengers to pay for choosing seats in advance...

Seat Selection
I booked an award flight on TK using LifeMiles and am having trouble getting seat assignments. I have a record locator and etickets and can get to manage my booking but can’t get to seats! Turkish says call Avianca but I’m pretty sure it’s up to Turkish. ive tweeted to Turkish but they are unresponsive. Any suggestions? |

I thought I was able to choose Y seats a couple of weeks ago for an award flight late September... these policies confound me sometime. |

Are you saying that any Y passenger, including status ones, already has to pay for any standard seats?

Currently, a Y passenger, regardless if he has status or not, has to pay for advance seat selection for Domestic flights. There is a rumor that the same process would be applied for international flights in the near future. My opinion it's that status passengers should be able to choose a seat for free, domestic or international, Y or J. I already dislike that on *A I can't choose a seat for free like happens on OW... having to pay also on the airline I have direct status with is very annoying. |

TK charging their own frequent fliers or the people in semi/flexible fares for advance seat selection would be a heavy-handed way to generate income. It certainly would make this little fish swim non-TK routes sometimes. * Terry Pratchett quote about taxes |
