choosing between turkish airlines and taag for portugal trip
So my cousin and I are finally making our dream trip to Portugal this September, and let me tell you, picking the right flight is turning into a whole adventure on its own! We spent hours comparing prices, and TAAG is definitely the cheapest, but Turkish Airlines isn’t too far behind. Here’s the thing: I’ve read so many mixed reviews about both airlines that now I’m just confused. Some people say Turkish Airlines is great, others complain about delays and lost luggage. TAAG, on the other hand, is a total mystery to me—barely anyone I know has flown with them.
The kicker? The TAAG flight has a super long layover, but at least I have lounge access. The catch is, I’ve heard the lounge isn’t anything to write home about—maybe just a sad sandwich and a lukewarm coffee. I’m worried about being stuck in an airport for hours, especially if the lounge is disappointing. Plus, I keep imagining my suitcase going on its own vacation and never making it to Lisbon.
Has anyone actually flown with TAAG or Turkish Airlines recently? Did your bags make it? Was the layover as bad as people say? If you had to choose, would you save money and risk the long layover, or pay a bit more for (maybe) better service? I’d love to hear some real stories—good or bad! Honestly, I just want to get to Portugal with my cousin and my luggage all in one piece. Anyone else ever feel like booking a flight is more stressful than the trip itself?
