• The right to independently choose a seat (for example, by the window or at the beginning or tail of the plane, that part of the board where there is less motion sickness).

These categories have different pricing policies; registration is also different if you have one ticket for everyone or a separate coupon for each (the whole group will go through in turn as separate passengers or all at once on one ticket).

Cancellation without penalty is rare. You can completely cancel a ticket purchase without any consequences only when the application has not yet been processed. Cancellation fees are charged from a portion of the money already paid in the form of a certain percentage of the total amount (its size depends on the specific destination and other factors). Changing booking data is only possible through corporate customer support (by calling the hotline or other means).

Registration via mobile application

This registration form will be convenient for those who do not have the opportunity to use the computer version of the site. In general, check-in for a flight in Russian on Turkish Airlines through the application is similar to what has already been discussed. You need to do the following:

2. Indicate the same personal data: last name, ticket number.

Thus, when using a mobile application, there is no need to even print a ticket; you just need to show it on your smartphone.

Restriction for online registration.

It is quite difficult to meet restrictions when registering online, because... the company actively receives feedback from its customers. This is possible in two cases:

• Contact or personal information was entered incorrectly.
• The required airport has not yet been entered into the airline's electronic database or is not serviced on the Turkish Airlines website.

The first situation can be corrected by contacting the customer service center. In the second situation, nothing can be done. You can check in at such an airport only in the general manner (i.e. in person) at the service counter.

Thus, there are two ways to pre-register online with the right to choose your desired seat on board: on the official website of Turkish Airlines or through their mobile application. At the airport itself, check-in is possible either at the service counter or at the self-service counter (provided that online check-in has already been completed).
