Turkish Airlines has been awarded the World Class award for the third time by APEX in recognition of its global leadership in guest experience and service quality in the aviation industry.
"We are glad to receive the highly prestigious APEX World Class Award given by APEX, one of the world’s foremost airline evaluation organizations. This award showcases the result of the dedication shown by all our team members,” said Chief Marketing Officer Ahmet Olmuştur accepting the award on behalf of Turkish Airlines during the APEX/IFSA Global Expo held in California. “Our ergonomic seats, personalized services, and unique offerings aimed at meeting our guests' needs are all part of our efforts to make the flight experience exceptional. This award demonstrates the accuracy of our strategies and efforts while motivating us to further enhance our future goals."
The flag carrier is among the select few airline companies recognized by APEX, which makes its evaluations by assessing safety, well-being, sustainability and service-guest experience criteria. Comprehensive assessments conducted by aviation industry professionals confirm that Turkish Airlines has reached global standards in these areas.
"In the world of elevated aviation experiences, Turkish Airlines soars above five-star airline status as a paragon of excellence winning as one of the only prestigious 2024 APEX World Class airlines in the world,” stated APEX CEO Dr. Joe Leader. “Through rigorous and professionally executed audits across both economy and business class service, our team gleaned insightful revelations about their unwavering commitment to passenger experience, safety, and sustainability advancements. On my own Turkish Airlines flights this year, I have been captivated by their new suite business class on select A350 aircraft. Each of their new generation aircraft embody enhanced opulence and innovation. With the touch of a Turkish Airlines flying chef, every meal becomes an unparalleled culinary journey, reminiscent of candlelit soirées under a starry Anatolian sky. Yet, it's their authentic and extravagant Turkish hospitality, a blend of warmth and luxury, that truly encapsulates the heart of their service. Bravo, Turkish Airlines, for crafting moments that transcend mere five-star status as one of the very few APEX World Class airlines!"
