Review of Turkish Airlines flight from Istanbul to Munich in Business

Hi,

Being on transfer I had some tasty small breakfast in the really nice Turkish Airlines Business Lounge. 

This lounge is huge and provides many different seating areas with different styles. Also the selection of food is amazing and includes many show cooking stations like in a Hotel.

A very nice tea station:

I decided to just have some tea and a small selection of snacks as I was still well fed from my incoming longhaul flight.

An A321 classic was waiting at the gate on this rainy day to operate the flight to Munich.

Boarding started on time and I took my comfortable medium haul Business Class armchair.

Seat pitch was very comfortable.

The cabin was comfortable but was rather worn and showed many signs of age.
The recliner seat provided a proper legrest as well. 

A welcoming soft drink was offered by the friendly crew.

Next headsets were distributed.

Still on the ground a printed menu was offered.

Rain did not stop and we pushed back about 20 minutes after schedule.

Powering into rainy clouds for this 2 hours 10 minutes flight across Europe.

TV monitors could be pulled out of the center armrest - however they provided a really outdated mechanism and display quality was really poor. Only the airshow worked - cabin crew made an announcement that unfortuantely a technical issue caused that movies and music programs did not work on this service.

Service started with the distribution of hot towels.

Soon a starter tray was served with a selection of warm bread. Drinks were also served at this step.

A trolley followed soon and starter dishes were replaced by main course. The chicken dish I chose tasted fine.

Drink refills were not offered proactively and the service was friendly but not really special.

I asked for a cup of coffee and soon nuts were also offered to all guests.

After the meal service another hot towel was offered which was a nice touch.

The rest of the flight passed by smoothely and we started our descend.

Landing at Munich was only with a small delay of ca. 10 minutes.
