I have been using Turkish Airlines for the past 4 years. There is more to this allegation. Turkish Airlines fly into Nigeria with big Aircraft Airbus. There services is relatively ok and cheap.I will say they are the cheapest airline in the world. Germany to Nigeria on Turkish Airlines charges start from 540€ while other airlines charge from 850€.

I have a ticket to fly with them from Germany to Nigeria this Christmas.

I have never witnessed missing bag in all this years but their services cannot be compared with KLM, Lufthansa, Airfrance etc, but better soup na money kill am o. I once fly with Airfrance, it was a better experience than Turkish but na your money dey go.

What happen to our already bought ticket oo?

They can’t just wake up and banned an airline that people have already bought ticket. They should give a notice.

Nigerian government should just pity us now for this Christmas,which kain wahala be dis one now.

Bro I came in on the 28th November which is Thursday. We landed at exactly 11:23pm(Abuja Airport).before I could get to Luggage collection point people are already fighting the Immigration officials,Turkish airline officials were no where to be fnd.not even 20% of passengers luggage came in.my 2 check in luggage didn't get.i was so mad that I wanted to slap the Immigration officer but at a point I have to control my anger.it was on Friday night that we all came back to pick up our luggage.so many people have to lodge in a hotel because they couldn't continue with their journey on that Thursday night because of their luggage. TURKISH PEOPLE ARE ONLY DOING THIS TO NIGERIANS. IF THEY TRY IT WITH EUROPEANS, THEY WILL PAY DAMAGES UNTIL THE AIRLINE FOLDS.

Seriously, Nawaoo, the Turkish Airlines have changed o, I use to fly with them because of excessive luggage I use to carry and they don’t charge for excess luggage when you more of 10kg for bags.

Are you sure, because when you bought a ticket the hours of journey is specified unless if your second connecting flight is cancelled there can be delay.

F.G should encourage local cable t.v to compete with Multichoice abeg their over dominance in Nigerian market is not good for the masses.
Government should give out viable toll free lines to complain about all these Lebanese,chinese and Indian companies with zero Workers welfare

There's nothing wrong with the size of their Aircraft. They use an Airbus for the Istanbul-Lagos route. I have flown with them severally and yes, they need to do something about the missing luggage rubbish. I've had 2 experiences with missing luggage with them and one wasn't even in Nigeria. They need to buckle up that part.

Turkish airlines is a nice airline. Nice airport in Istanbul and they travel to almost all the major cities worldwide. Nice service too, for a relatively cheaper price.

Re: FG Suspends Turkish Airlines Operations In Nigeria by jjman2322: 8:42am On Dec 13, 2019
Its not that the aircraft they bring isnt big enough, its that some of these carriers also bring in cargo goods..

Turkish airlines comes in with a wide body aircraft.. (egypt air, asky , are coming in with tiny 737s yet no issues)

I call this the "CHOP DOUBLE MONEY SYNDROME". - an airline decides to also bring in so much cargo goods that they dont have enough space for their passengers luggages.. To them its a win-win - you chop money for cargo goods and also chop money from the passengers...

How can a whole Turkey airline operate with smaller aircraft by bringing passengers and their luggage in two different plane.

Every revelation has shown Turkey has been supplying arms to Boko Haram terrorists in Nigeria. Unfortunately, Erdogan has refused to comment on this issue.

Nice step here.
Why would Erdogan bother to comment when he has better things to take care of.He's busy fighting off ISIS and DAESH at his borders and some idiots are saying he's funding Boko Haram for that matter.
Re: FG Suspends Turkish Airlines Operations In Nigeria by nothingspoil70: 8:49am On Dec 13, 2019
I have been travelling with Turkish airlines to Nigeria since 2014 great airlines good experience. They always lodge me in a five star hotel in Istanbul whenever im on transit. Never experienced this baggage issue with them.The last journey with them was in in october 2019 They are obviously the best value for money in Euopean travel. I'm sure this is not unconnected with the arms smuggling accusation or rumours going on at the moment. Watch as other airlines increase their fares to Nigeria because of this action
Re: FG Suspends Turkish Airlines Operations In Nigeria by havilla(f): 8:50am On Dec 13, 2019
The aircraft they use from abuja to Istanbul is small and always hot and stuffy inside, dont think I would fly them again after my last experience.

Asking him for a prove is just like searching for a needle in an ultra giant heap of haysack. He can never come with any.

Just "fraudster", nothing more nothing less, no prove, just like that.

I think you should inform the moderators.
