Miles & Smiles is Turkish Airlines' frequent flyer programme. To sign up for the programme, follow the steps here. Go here for Turkish Airlines Service Centre contact details.

Turkish Airlines check-in

Turkish Airlines' check-in options make it possible for you to check in online, by using your mobile phone or tablet, at a self-check-in machine or at the airline check-in counter in the airport.

Be sure to check in at the airline counter at the airport you are departing from in case of travelling with pets or if you require special on-board services.

Discover more details about Turkish Airlines check-in methods here.

Turkish Airlines online check-in

Passengers can check in online from 24 hours before the scheduled departure, choose a seat and print out their boarding pass or have it sent to their mobile phone (first ensure mobile check-in is possible in the airport of departure).

Online check-in for Turkish Airlines is provided here.

Turkish Airlines mobile check-in

You can conveniently check in and download the mobile boarding pass to your mobile device wherever you happen to be. From 24 hours prior to departure, you can check in, reserve your seat, and get your boarding pass with your mobile phone. Mobile check-in is not available in all airports, so it is important to check this when planning your trip.

In case you have an issue with your mobile boarding pass, you can visit the airline check-in counter or a check-in machine (where available) for a regular paper one. This additionally applies if you experience any problems with your phone, or if you delete your boarding pass by accident.

Turkish Airlines self-check-in machines

These are the screens you can use to check in at the airport. Not all airports have self-check-in machines, so check that the airport you are departing from does prior to your journey. Most check-in machines enable you to check in with either your passport or your last name and booking reference, which you will find on your booking confirmation.

THY check-in deadlines

The point of check-in deadlines is to ensure flights leave according to schedule. No matter how you opt to check in, make sure you have your boarding pass and that all necessary baggage is checked prior to the deadline.

To read about Turkish Airlines check-in deadlines, please follow the link.

Turkish Airlines baggage allowance

Read additional details about Turkish Airlines' baggage policy here.

Turkish Airlines hand luggage / carry-on baggage

The class of your flight ticket affects the amount of carry-on baggage items you are allowed on a Turkish Airlines flight. Carry-on baggage is required to adhere to airline regulations.

It is necessary to check your carry-on baggage at a Turkish Airlines desk or, if available at the departure airport, by using a self-service bag drop service, when it falls outside the airline's regulations. It is important to note that you could be required to pay charges if you have to check this baggage.

Additional detailed information relating to allowance for carry-on baggage is here.

Dimensions applied to carry-on baggage – max. 55 x 40 x 23 cm

Turkish Airlines checked baggage

The cost and travel class of your ticket establish the amount of baggage you may check in at no cost. For Turkish Airlines, this varies depending on your destination. More information can be found here.

Regulations for checked-in baggage dimensions – max. 158 cm (width + height + depth)

Turkish Airlines excess baggage policy

There are a few points to consider concerning excess and special baggage. Here you can find more information about this and flat fees.

Baggage considered to be excess

Economy Class – over 23 kg (maximum 32 kg) and/or above 158 cm (width + height + depth)
Business Class – above 158 cm (width + height + depth)

Turkish Airlines luggage policy: Sports equipment

If you are taking sports equipment, prepare for your journey with all the information you need here. You should make a reservation for sports baggage early, as the aircraft usually has limited allocated space for such items.

More information with respect to sports baggage and equipment regulations can be found here.
