Cancellation of Turkish Airlines flight tickets: Conditions change depending on fares

More and more people are traveling by air and have rights they may not be aware of. There are cases where the passenger has purchased his flight from Turkish Airlines, but the plans are not as he expected, and he has to cancel his trip due to different reasons. This is why there are different rules that protect him in these eventualities that may arise.

Turkish Airlines has a flexible cancellation policy besides allowing its passengers to cancel their reservation through several methods: Online and by phone.

As a TA passenger, you can cancel your flight ticket by:

– Calling Turkish Airlines customer service telling them that you want to make changes to your booking. If that’s not possible, tell them you need to cancel. They will ask you if this is a one-time or recurring change. You must choose once if this is your first request. For recurring changes, they will ask for details of previous requests. You can either pay the cancellation fee directly through your bank account, if you paid by credit card, or by providing your credit card information.

– By visiting the Turkish Airlines.com website; then going to Manage Booking. The passenger may cancel his reservation by clicking on the “Cancel” button.

Once the transaction is confirmed, you will receive an email confirming the cancellation of your flight.

There are no cancellation fees for any type of reservation, except for one-way tickets and confirmed reservations. If you wish to cancel your ticket, a fee will be charged based on the time remaining before departure. For example, if you have booked a return flight from Istanbul to London and want to change the destination to Amsterdam, you must cancel your original itinerary.

You can cancel your reservation up to 24 hours after booking your flight. You will not be charged for services or trips that you have not used.

Cancellation fees vary depending on when you book and how long it takes before your trip departs.
