Check-in rules for Turkish Airlines flights

When flying abroad, in addition to checking in at special counters, you also need to go through passport and visa control. Because of this procedure, the time required to complete all pre-flight formalities increases significantly, so you need to arrive at the airport with plenty of time.

How long does it take to open and when does registration close?

Online registration

The weight of baggage included in the Turkish Airlines ticket price is determined by the class of service and destination. The cost of each extra kilogram is also not fixed; it depends on the route.

Taxi cost calculation to the airport

In this article I want to clearly look at registration for Turkish Airlines aircraft. I recommend that you go through this process via the Internet, without any queues and in a relaxed atmosphere. This will not only save time at the airport, but also be one of the first to choose your favorite seats on the plane, which is very important, especially on long flights.

It is worth noting that, unfortunately, online check-in for a flight is not available at all airports. So, for example, when flying out of Sarajevo, I was not able to take advantage of this opportunity. In other cases, she helped me a lot: you don’t have to rush and don’t stand in line. This option can also be considered irreplaceable if you do not have checked luggage, but only hand luggage. Then, upon arrival at the airport, you need to immediately go to the check-in and security counter.

Okay, let’s leave the theory aside for later, let’s look at everything using a specific example.

1. Online check-in for regular Turkish Airlines flights begins 24 hours before departure. This is very convenient; you register at home, even if you then have to go to the airport by train or bus across the country. Slowly, in a calm environment, and not rushing around the nearest cafes in search of WiFi.

Attention! If the flight consists of several flights, check-in will become available 24 hours before the departure of the last one!

To begin the registration procedure, go to the TK website, where you will be asked to indicate a number electronic ticket (E-Ticket Number) or PNR code ( Booking Reference), as well as name ( First Name) and last name ( Last Name) passenger, then click Next >> ( Continue).

In this case, pay attention to the “ To start online check-in only for mentioned passenger please click.“. This is a function for those who have several people on their ticket and want to complete the check-in procedure only for the passenger whose first and last name you just entered. By default, the checkbox is not checked, and in most cases we do not need it.

Please keep your booking reference and e-ticket number confidential for your own security – Please keep your e-ticket number confidential. for your own safety.

2. If you entered all the data in the first step correctly, you will be directed to the next page. It is used to select a flight for check-in, indicate the bonus account number of Turkish Airlines or another airline member of Star Allians ( Frequent Flyer Card Number) and your nationality ( Nationality). Please note that the Turkey Card ID field ( Republic of Turkey ID Number) can only be completed by citizens of the Republic of Turkey. Then click the Next button.

Please note that flights for which check-in functionality is already available are marked as Available to Check-in.

3. A new inscription will appear at the bottom. You need to check the corresponding box in the green box indicating that you agree with their rules and click again Continue.

I accept the above conditions and would like to continue check-in –I agree to the airline's rules and would like to continue checking in online.

4. We have reached the step where we need to indicate a seat for ourselves and other passengers. You can read about which seat is best to choose on the plane in a separate article.

As you can see, we have a diagram of the plane and a schematic representation of all the passenger seats in our class. White, empty squares are free spaces, and we can choose them. We select, click on them with the mouse and the corresponding place will appear opposite your last name. After this procedure, click next. If the flight has connections, you will be asked to select seats on other planes. Do it.

Once we have secured our seat on all segments of the flight, we can move on to the next page.

5. This concludes our registration. At this step, you can still go back and change seats, but not until your boarding passes are printed.

So now you need to print ( Print) all boarding passes ( Boarding Pass) in the corresponding column. You will need to come directly to the flight with these sheets. Try not to crumple it, as I did, putting it in my trouser pocket; at the Donetsk airport during security, the scanner only read the security code from the boarding pass 5 times, I had to be nervous.

Please note that without a Boarding Pass you will not be able to board the plane! Please don't lose these papers. To be on the safe side, I recommend printing out several copies and putting them in different places, plus taking one with you on a flash drive to electronic version(I recommend studying this in my article about travel documents).

6. Printing your boarding pass is done in this way: after clicking on the Print button for the corresponding flight, a pop-up window will pop up (make sure that they are not blocked by your browser!)

Click here Please click here to print the boarding pass to send to the printer for printing, and be sure to save it on the computer with the item Please click here to download the boarding pass. We repeat for each landing flight.

If the passengers have made the ticket payment via internet or call center, main credit card is required to be presentes during the boarding time – If a passenger purchased a ticket online or by telephone, he will be required to provide his credit card, with which payment was made to confirm its physical presence at the time of boarding. I’ve never seen it in practice, but just in case, I don’t buy through a virtual credit card, but only pay with a physical one.

7. That's all, actually! Congratulations and have a safe flight!

Answers to frequently asked questions

What to do with your luggage?

If you have checked baggage, you will have to check it. As a rule, to do this you need to stand in line with those who are checking in for the flight (even if you have boarding passes). And only some airports have a separate counter and even a self-service baggage check-in machine for such passengers. If you only have hand luggage, go straight to boarding.

I checked in for the flight, but I can’t print out the boarding passes; instead of the print item, there is Info.

There are a number of reasons why the service does not allow you to print your boarding pass. In such cases, you will be able to receive them during check-in at the counter, along with everyone else.

Yes indeed. Travel agencies buy places in “blocks”. You will only be able to check in at the airport.
