I dont see what is emotional to realize the fact that TK will be washing their hands with water and claim innocent.. latest judgments have increased the "all reasonable measures" clause.. and TK did not use all reasonable measures to make the connection. The diversion to a non manned airport. or very obvious on the way back where they didnt leave the gate open to the latest chance of 12 but closed it "on time" 20min prior to departure. expertflyer showed a fully booked flight. guess they had a point to leave on time and not wait.
these are all facts... certainly those can get people emotional.. they got me emotional because I had to spend three hours on a plane that smelled like vomit and missed an important day.
and surprisingly people on here got emotional.
but the facts remain.. and we all know theres a difference in beeing right and winning a law suit on TK rules and regulations in Turkey :-)
I am glad that this made y'alls day and I like humor as well.. I just did not know this. and that is also why I sat up this post... so other people can read in the future what is possible at the new IST airport.. extremely horrible delays with horrible IRROPS leading to a crowed screaming you cant blame them you shoulda known better :-)

We’re sorry you had crappy experiences with TK. It’s not usually like that. I don’t think we’re an unusually rude bunch and don’t think you’d get a much warmer reception over at the German VFT on the same subject matter.
please let us know how it all comes out and what the verdict is. Good luck.
P.S. please use spellcheck

Accurate spelling in the US is an optional extra that costs $$$. It’s usually a game of pin-the-tail-on-the-donkey.

Topic closed?
Mod. Isn't it time to close this thread as it has drifted into non-THY mudslinging.
Let the OP have the best of luck in his Quixotic search for financial compensation!
