Turkish Airlines - any good?

We have booked our hotel for a week's holiday in Antalya, Turkey and currently looking for flights. Most of the flights are either really late at night going out or morning hours coming back, so we would effectively lose 2 days of our holiday. We have found reasonable flight times with Turkish Airlines, and will be paying slightly more for these flights because of this. My only concern is half of the reviews seem to say they are excellent, and the other saying they are the worst, especially for either changing flight times with significant waiting times or cancelling flights with no explanation. Has anyone flown with them recently and what was your experience?

I flew with them last month PSA-KTM, on time, didn't notice anything particularly good or bad. A less than 4-hour flight should be bearable.Evolution, not revolution0

They are supposed to be excellent on board. Personally I find their safety record a little questionable, although I said the same about Air France and I have flown with them.0

Very good airline ,23Kgs Baggage, Meals and drinks.
The recent re-schedules/flight changes have been to do with them changing to the New Istanbul Airport, I book 100+ seats a week with them (Incoming Tour Operator)and rarely receive complaints.0 -
That's good to know thanks, hopefully by the time we fly out the change-over to the new airport should be smoothed out by then.
Are you able to give us a quote on flights perhaps?0
