The journey from Paris to Istanbul was wonderful. The price was, in my opinion, good value and worthwhile compared to other airlines. The staff were very friendly, helpful and extremely respectful of your guests. They always had a big smile on their faces and handled the requests and concerns of their passengers with great interest. I also arrived in Istanbul on time, as the departure and landing took place according to schedule. The timetable was therefore adhered to. The catering was excellent, as the meal consisted of unique and delicious Turkish dishes. In addition, the air-conditioning was perfect and there were no temperature fluctuations. There was also the opportunity to enjoy the breathtaking view through the windows. However, the films, series, music and games for entertainment were not up to date and I didn't have much choice. The hygiene conditions were unfortunately poor, as the toilets, composting toilets and seats were not clean and tidy. In addition, the seats were not cosy and comfortable. I had no legroom. But overall the trip was great because of the price, the catering and the excellent service!

The journey from Paris to Istanbul was pleasant. The flight took off on time and my seat in Business Class was comfortable. I particularly liked the way the seats were furnished. The wifi was excellent, but there was no power socket. Food and drinks were often served. The aircraft and the WCs were clean and well maintained. The service was friendly and attentive. The price-performance ratio was reasonable, but the pilot was very unfriendly and annoyed.

The flight from Paris to Istanbul was breathtaking. First of all, the price was inexpensive compared to other transport options. That impressed me a lot and that's why I bought the ticket. Moreover, the staff was very friendly, helpful and respectful towards their guests. With a big smile on their faces that radiated joy, they always dealt with my problems and concerns. I therefore felt very well looked after. The booking process was straightforward and simple. The seats were also very comfortable and cosy, which helped to make the journey relaxing. However, the hygiene conditions were sometimes poor, as the composting toilets and WCs were not well enough maintained, whereas the seats were. Unfortunately, I didn't land in Istanbul on time either. It turned out that the timetable had not really been adhered to. The noise level was not optimal. This also affected comfort. But all in all, the journey was great and worth recommending due to the price and the excellent service.

My flight from Paris to Istanbul was very good. Firstly, I would like to emphasise the excellent price, because it was reasonable. I also arrived in Istanbul on time and hygiene was well taken care of. The hygiene conditions were marvellous, as the toilets and seats were clean and hygienic. I didn't have to change planes as there was no need to change planes. However, it was very noisy on board, which is why I would categorise the time on board as annoying. Overall, however, I am happy with the journey!

My flight from Paris to Istanbul was a journey of contrasts. The cabin crew were attentive and served a surprisingly good selection of Turkish specialities. The terminal in Paris was surprisingly clean and well organised, which made the start of the journey very pleasant. The cabin was spotless and even the toilets were clean throughout the flight. We took off and landed as planned.

There was also no need to change planes, so I was able to relax and enjoy my flight without having to keep changing planes. The seats were very comfortable and cosy. However, the staff on board were very unfriendly and ignorant of my concerns and wishes. That was disappointing! But overall I am very happy with the ticket!

The journey from Paris to Istanbul was amazingly good as the price was good value, which made it attractive to me. In addition, the staff on board were very friendly and helpful, which I really appreciated. I also landed in Istanbul on time, which is an advantage. The volume on board was optimal, which is why I was even able to rest. However, the seats were not particularly comfortable and cosy. As a result, I was unable to rest and was exhausted for the whole flight. But overall I am happy with the journey.

The journey from Paris to Istanbul was breathtaking. On my flight, I was initially very impressed by the comfort of the seats. I had plenty of room to sit down and the seats were very comfortable. I was even given a blanket. The reservation was made online without any problems. The volume on the aircraft was pleasant. The staff on board were very friendly and they clarified and dealt with my concerns in a short space of time. I also landed on time in Istanbul, which made my journey a lot easier. However, there were a few transfers that made my journey more difficult, as I had to constantly go back and forth with my suitcase. But overall I am very happy with the trip.
