Rundown and old: Turkish Airlines A330-200 business class from Istanbul to Dubai

Experience the older Turkish Airlines business class on A330-200 in our journey from Istanbul to Dubai. Please subscribe to our channel for more flights reviews: ruclips.net/user/PremiumTrav...
In our last flights with Turkish Airlines, we had one of the worst business class experiences during this regional flight between Istanbul and Dubai. The 22 seats business class is completely rundown, the seats were terrible dirty and the service was very poor. Most of the angle flat seats were broken and many passengers raised an official complain with the cabin crew.
We have 6 more Turkish Airlines business class reviews on our channel, most of them being a very good experience. So just avoid getting a business ticket in their A330 and you can still get a world class seat and experience.
Turkish is one of the biggest airlines in the world, flying to 126 countries, 340 destinations and 386 planes in their fleet. We started our review with a quick tour into their flagship lounge in Istanbul, one of the best business class lounges in the world.

3:16, I think it's built in 2004, but not delivered to Turkish Airlines at that time since the first A330-200 was delivered to the airline in December 2005, and that was TC-JNA, Turkish's very own A330-200, and I flew onboard it's sister TC-JNC from 2006, the retro A330 livery on Buisness Class it looks totally newer and different. The aircraft you flew onboard was a second handed leased A330 first used by airlines like TAM, or Jet Airways, then delivered later to Turkish Airlines around 2018

Thanks for adding the details!

[@muhammadsiddiq7499]

dear to heart

[@AleksFolk1]

I’m hoping by July ‘24 this will be phased out… I’m flying TK due to destination and connections only via TK out of Dubai. I did this aircraft some 8 years ago and it’s nothing to write home about.

[@PremiumTravelClub]

That’s the plan, it should be gone by ‘25.

[@valpopovici4817]

Even worst if you take TK flights to more exotic / developing destinations. It’s a pity that Turkish Airlines went from one of the best to one of the worst. To avoid…

[@PremiumTravelClub]

Agree, the inconsistency doesn’t help them at all. Even for long hauls you cannot compare their service now vs 5-10 years ago.

[@nkhan4]

If this is old layout I must’ve travelled on their prehistoric one just 3 weeks ago. No lie flat, old broke down seats and tv comes out of arm rest after a small wrestle. Broken seats. This is all business class btw. Oh how Turkish airline has fallen from grace and left in the dust. Their 777 business class has 2-3-2 layout, yes. Some passengers have to jump over other passengers to get out if they are sleeping. A

[@PremiumTravelClub]

Wow, I didn’t know there is even al older version that that. Which aircraft was it?

[@Hokipoki4u]

This is disappointing as I've heard lots of good report about TA.

[@PremiumTravelClub]

Same on our side, if you check our RUclips channel, you will see a lot of positive reports, even in their Boeing 777 configured 2-2-2. We will never fly again their A330s.

[@cheapercharlie]

@@PremiumTravelClub that hard product looked very bad - you mentioned the crew not being the best - what exactly was going on with their service?

[@PremiumTravelClub]

@@cheapercharlie it was just poor service. From not acting on the dirt on our seats, not helping with the broken seating situation, to rushing the dinner service and then clean up only 1 hour later.

[@cheapercharlie]

@@PremiumTravelClub i appreciate your reviews and taking the time to answer my question.

[@PremiumTravelClub]

@@cheapercharlie thanks so much Charlie! Keep an eye on our channel, many more interesting reviews to come!
