So another experience with TK. We flew 4 yesterday from Van via Istanbul to Vienna . 3 of us did the online checkinn with no problem . Only one did but at on-line checkinn it kept offering , that he can only check in to Istanbul . This was approx 9 hours before departure from Istanbul and when selecting seats , we saw seats still available from Istanbul to Vienna . At the airport this friend was told that the other segment had been changed , until the flight in 24 hours . And the most she can do in Istanbul is go to the TK desk and try the waiting list or change to an earlier morning flight. So she went to the TK desk in IST and they told her that they would not change anything, that it was full for the morning. But the app offered me that I could buy it. And they started to offer us 250 euros at the gate and later 600 euros and a morning flight if we volunteered. I texted my friend and she came back to TK and said that no one had asked her and that she wanted the morning flight that they were offering to others. Have you also had the experience of being moved to another flight without notice?
