Good in general, but i think the chair is not comfortable for traveling more than 2 hours ..

Krakow airport is very disorganized. nice seats. friendly crew. long legs had screens. short leg did not

Stuck on a plane for 6 hours due to a technical or mechanical issue.

Horrible communication, flight boarded then we sat on plane for almost 5 hours as the runway was barely covered in snow with no plows in sight and the as we tried to taxi there was a major equipment failure due to poor push off technique causing all passengers to be taken off the flight to ultimately have the flight cancelled. There was barely any communication to passengers as to what was happening or what to do next to get placed on another flight. Arriving to my final destination a whole day later having to take a connecting flight through Lisbon to ultimately end up in New York instead of a direct flight as none available for the next day. Never flying LOT airlines again!

Boarding was a madhouse. Airport staff was completely disinterested in communicating about the delays. Never again.

Although I was flying in business class, the feeling, comfort and in general the whole experience was like flying in a low cost airline. Boarding by. Us, no priority to business class passengers. The plane was very old and looked poor and rely old. Seats do not recline. Space between rows very small. No separation between business class and economy. No separate toilet for business class passengers. Of course no entertainment, no WiFi and no charging. Very bad experience

Smooth flight, excellent crew and good food. Not enough space; sitting are too small.

Crew was excellent. Business class was poor on the short flight and mediocre at best on the international flight.

Very poor. Seats like economy class, food unbeatable, no charging, no entertainment, no WiFi, boarding by bus - no justification for calling and pricing this as business class

The flight itself was pleasant and on time. Crew was very good. However, breakfast food was barely acceptable. Unfortunately this satisfies the recent industry standards. I asked for a sandwich with ham (another choice was cheese), but received a sandwich with roast beef.

Staff could have been friendlier and offered drinks more often

It was a pleasant experience. In flight entertainment could have been better

The desk crew at the LAX crew could do better. A girl named Mahesi was very abrasive and unfriendly. She needs a better customer service uproar.

One of the worst days of my in Istanbul very disrespect people they changed my flight 2 times I miss one of my flight from Istanbul to DFW they forsed me to buy another ticket they do not care about customer they take advantage of you. You get scammed from every where if have other options please don't go through the Turkish airlines

It was peaceful excited We enjoyed it always Turkish peaceful excited

Istanbul to Lahore flight was less than standard for international business class cabins. Seat did not were not flat and it did not operate easily. I had to push buttons hard repeatedly to operate the seat. I was in 5A seat

Worst of the 3 flights so far. Food was not good, wasn’t ask my choice. Airplane was the A320 which was not as nice as the 787. Left and arrived late.

IAH to Istanbul was outstanding across the board. The flight from Istanbul to Male was good, not great.

Our flight was canceled with no rebooking offered. We are still waiting for a refund and had to book a very expensive flight to return to Toronto without any compensation or help from Turkish or flight hub. Extremely poor service during a time of crisis, speaks volumes about the type of airline and flight hub as a disaster of a company with zero accountability

the cabin was kept too hot. couldn't sleep as a result

The plane was new. The crew is very supportive and speaks various languages (at least English, French, Italian and Spanish). It was a great experience taking into account is a low cost airline.

Have to offer water. Leg room and space is non existent

The seat was surprisingly comfortable and the crew was great.

The boarding was terrible. Confusing, long and with multiple checks.

One of our suitcases was missing at arrival. No news from the lost and found desk so far. As for 3 or 4 other passengers, they said it probably was missent at Orly airport. Hope it arrives. Not sure whether a compensation will occur if not found.

Stuck on the hot overcrowded bus on the tarmac without ac

Bonjour, J'ai été très très fortement déçue et en colère par mon dernier vol avec Transavia. Voici ce qui s'est passé : J'avais acheté un billet avec 50 kg en soute (dont uniquement 36kg utilisés). Au moment du dépôt des valises en soute, l'hôtesse m'a demandé si je voulais également mettre mon bagage cabine en soute. J'ai dit que je préfère le garder avec moi. Arrivée à la porte d'embarquement, un responsable vérifie les dimensions du bagage cabine des passagers. Un tiers était non conforme à la réglementation (dimensions non conformes), dont moi. J'avais déjà voyagé plusieurs fois avec transavia sans jamais avoir de problème avec cette même valise en cabine, mais c'est la première fois que je suis confrontée à ce problème. La conséquence est de payer 60 €. Le nombre de passagers non conformes étant trop grand et les réclamations devant grandissantes, le responsable a détourné sciemment l'attention pour que des disaines de personnes traversent, pour n'en garder que 4-5, qui n'auront pas trop de voix et sont obligés de payer. Je ne remets pas en cause la réglementation. Mes reproches sont les suivants : 1- Pourquoi au moment de mettre le bagage en soute l'hôtesse n'a t-elle pas prévenu sur ce sujet ? Il aurait suffit d'une seule phrase. Tout ceci pour nous laisser arriver jusqu'à l'embarquement avec l'expérience que les bagages sont en général non conformes car vos dimensions sont ridiculement plus petites que la norme internationale, et nous mettre sous pression avant la fin de l'embarquement sans pouvoir parler à un responsable et n'avoir plus le choix que de payer. 2- l'attitude du responsable et sa methode corrompue de faire taire les réclamations en permettant à certains de passer 3- le fait que j'avais encore droit à 14kg en plus des 10kg de la valise cabine et j'ai du payer 60€ pour que finalement ma valise aille en soute. Tout ceci est une manière de soutirer de l'argement indignement, sous forme de réglementation. Je vous conseille d'assumer d'augmenter vos prix au lieu de les répercuter par des escroqueries pareils, au moins nous serions prévenus. Ceci est une honte et vous semblez en être fiers. Merci et bravo.

Les espacement entre les sièges sont moins confortables pour les personnes de grande taille

Being on time rather than almost 3 hours late would be a start, and also, since it was known from a long time ago that the flight would be late, letting us know ahead so we don’t stay in a small hall at the airport would have been nice

Transit through Cairo was abysmal and I will never repeat this journey !!!

It was a safe flight with a friendly cabin crew.

The flight was never confirmed, I was not sent a ticket, and my account was charged for this flight. I’m trying to get my money back for a flight that was not booked or confirmed. Terrible experience

The plane was too hot inside. There was no entertainment and we had to sit on the plane for one hour before takeoff. There was no free wifi.

Online check-in was unavailable for my flight. So I waited 40 min in the queue at the check-in counter. Then, unlike any other airline in the world (and I am a very frequent international flyer) Pegasus was adamant that my CPAP was just another carry on and that I had to pay extra for it. Then, after I had paid in advance for a seat, they insisted I could not sit in an exit row because I was over 60 years old (I'm clearly in good shape and buy exit row seats more or less weekly). We pushed back harder and harder and insisted on talking to the station chief, who spoke with the counter staff by phone (not to me) and eventually relented. Experience on boarf was ok-- for a budget airline.

You adjourned my flight by 1h 30 mns and only updated me 1h30 mns before the new scheduled flight. I submitted an email to Kayak asking for a refund. It was the most stressful experience I've had.

Not because when i try to do check in there is only in turkish language i can not select other language

Don't fly Pegasus, terrible service at the airport and boarding was really bad. Both flights I took with them were significantly late. This flight had us all changing the gate at the last moment and it was chaos.withour explanation or apology. The planes have seats that don't recline and seats are really hard. The crew on board was good both flights, but that is the only positive thing I can say about this airline. It's not worth it and I won't be flying them again.

The airport staff were some of the worst I've ever flown, and I fly at least 50x every year. From the staff at the gate, to the check in staff, to the ticketing sales staff. My experience in Instanbul was so bad Ill.never fly Pegasus again. They were incredibly rude, dismissive and not helpful whatsoever. This is the worst of the worst if you want to fly a budget airline I'd go elsewhere. The airplane seats are really uncomfortable and don't recline at all, you get charged for every single thing so in the end you will pay more flying with them. The crew on the plane were the only kind people we encountered with Pegasus.

Pegasus Airlines which is the most efficient and cost worth low cost airline all over the Europe

Seats are disaster, not comfortable at all. With my height 183 cm there were no space for my legs... The airplane was Turkish airlines and no entertainment on board.

Bad. Cancelled and delayed flight. Payed 25£ for seat but got just normal one. No one refunded the money.
