Turkish Airlines has been named Best in Entertainment in Europe at the 2026 APEX Official Airline Ratings, marking the fourth consecutive year the carrier has received the honour. The recognition reflects continued passenger appreciation for the airline’s in-flight entertainment experience.
The APEX Official Airline Ratings, organised by the Airline Passenger Experience Association, are based entirely on neutral and independently verified passenger feedback. The ratings are compiled in partnership with TripIt and Concur. For the 2026 edition, passengers evaluated more than one million flights operated by over 600 airlines worldwide through a five-star rating system.
Airlines were assessed across five core categories: seat comfort, cabin service, food and beverage, in-flight entertainment, and Wi-Fi connectivity. Turkish Airlines’ consistent performance in the entertainment segment highlights its focus on enhancing onboard digital content and passenger engagement. In Kolkata, the award is expected to strengthen the airline’s appeal among travellers from the city seeking premium long-haul connectivity to Europe and beyond. With rising outbound travel demand from Kolkata, recognition at the APEX Awards may further boost brand preference among business and leisure passengers in the region.
