business travellerMemberOur flight was pretty good overall as one would expect from a very large and recognised international airline.
My grumbles are primarily with the business class space and layout.
Given that the flight was over 4 hours long I had expected perhaps a dedicated business class environment as opposed to the standard economy 3×3 seating with the middle seat still there albeit that the arm rests from either side had been extended over slightly to create more room.
Leg room was acceptable however, a little more would have been appreciated.
Food and drink service was prompt and efficient with champagne available upon request and of which I enjoyed a few glasses.

AMcWhirterParticipantMaybe your flight was on a B737 not fitted with the new business class seating.
According to seatplans.com Turkish Airlines provides a separate business class cabin with proper 2-2 seating on B737-800 aircraft.

The new seating is also installed on B737-900ER aircraft.

AlexthegreatParticipantNot so long ago I flew TK into Istanbul Sabiha and out of Istanbul Ataturk – both on 737-800. The aircraft into Sabiha had the standard 3 x 3 seating with the middle seat kept free in Business Class and out of Ataturk we had the proper TK Business Class seats with dedicated cabin. The meal/bar service was the same on both flights. I asked a cabin crew why the difference and I was told that aircraft operating to/from Sabiha had this 3 x 3 product and Ataturk was more important of the two airports – I guess a bit like LHR vs LGW
